No.
Even being of Scottish descent, with a red beard, I will not wear a kilt or anything remotely like it. |
|
IMHO Americans of vaguely Scottish descent tromping around in a kilt is just as lame and poser-ish as if I were to adopt an Irish brogue whenever I get hammered on Guinness.
Just because my grandmother was as Irish as Paddy Murphy the drunken potato farming Leprechaun doesn't mean I need to pretend I am. But hey, it's a free country so if you like to tromp around in a kilt it's pretty damn harmless as hobbies go. |

View Quote OMG! Yes! This guy illustrates my point perfectly. A man dresses in a nondescript way and differentiates himself by his actions. |

Because if you say society there is a large group of society that thinks people that own guns are doing it for attention whoring, mental defectiveness, or are weirdos. You know the same arguments you have against kilts. |

The hell is a lava lava?
The only kilt wearers I've ever known were people who were always saying it was normal and not at all weird to wear a kilt. I think they were trying to convince themselves. Like a trilby, it's often worn as a prosthetic for a stunted personality. |

Once when in a hurry after getting out of the shower I cinched a belt around my waist over the towel. I did proceed to knock out a number of household tasks before I realized, "Hey, this ain't so bad. Kinda' nice, in fact. I almost wish I could go around like this more often."
Never did it again. |

I'm not against it if you are from a country where they are worn or descendant from them. But there is no real reason for an American of German decent to wear one.

You just hate kilts. Yes, it is fucking retarded because nobody is trying to ban the sale and ownership of kilts. We are arguing that kilts are an obvious and pathetic affectation. Not that they should be illegal. Even if you did want to make that claim and achieve the 9th circle of retardation I could point out that kilts aren't a God given right like my guns are. |

My Black Watch kilt is made out of 22 ounce wool (like overcoat wool), and the pleats in back are 7 layers thick. It weighs about 5-6 pounds and is warm enough to wear in the snow. The only time I got cold was when I was playing frisbee in 8" of snow with my border collie. I squatted down to get the frisbee, and in his excitement he lost traction and skidded to a stop at my feet. His skid threw up so much snow it was like someone throwing a shovel full of snot up my kilt and onto my junk. That was cold..I am reasonably tough, but not stupid. When a shovelful of snow up yer kilt makes your testicles draw up to nearly your chest, it is time to go home.
It is amazing how quickly women strike up a conversation with a man in a kilt. My three kilts were my clan (Mackinnon), black Stewart, and black watch. The last two are called "open" tartans and anyone can wear them without causing offense. |

Does this kilt/sarong/lungi/lava lava make my ass look big?

Do what you want and never give a fuck what anyone else thinks. I have never worn any of the attire in question but I don't think it's stupid if a man wants to. Live your life and do what makes you happy.

So change kilt to any other article of clothing like jeans and try to argue that we don't have a "right" to wear clothing that we like. My rights do t come from a piece of paper. |

I wore a skirt my sophmore or junior year. Our high school had a ban on shorts. A number of us got in trouble for attempting to wear shorts. So a whole group of us got together and borrowed skirts from the girls and wore them the next day. The school had no idea what to do with us. The next year the dress code was changed to allow shorts.

Ok, so apparently you're intent upon reaching the 9th circle of retardation instead of defending your ridiculous claim that disapproving of men wearing skirts is like killing babies. Show me where the constitution/bill of rights clearly protects the right to wear clothes of any kind more than it protects the right to own guns. Show me where anyone in this thread said kilts should be banned. You can't because all we've done is point out is how stupid they are. |

What I find amusing is that I bought my first kilt to attend a corsets and kilts party being thrown by a bunch of Air Force Special Operations folks... And know SpecOps types from other branches who attend the same party, including at least one former BUD/S instructor... Believe me, NOBODY wants to see me in a corset...

It's softer than a briefcase so it doesn't feel like I'm carrying an armored box. I use it for meetings, as a computer bag, what I use to dump my rain jacket when the sun comes out, bring newspapers to patients in the hospital, and have even brought guns to the range in it. Plus I use it to carry water and stow things I pick up at fairs or when I go to the city. For another, the measure of a man isn't whether he's carrying around something that looks like a purse. A measure of a man is by his not giving a monkey juggling fuck what others think about their using a messenger bag. You may cry in the corner if my using a messenger bag displeases you, for I do not care. The utilitarian advantages of a combination briefcase/computer bag/ammunition bag pleases me. |

No. It isn't. He's right. You don't like it, but he is. That's fine. Learn to agree to disagree. You'll be happier... View Quote I think I figured out my my disagreeing with you upsets you so much. Your kilt is allowing sand to get into your vagina. It's perfectly ok to wear undies under your skirt. You don't have to do the 'regimental' thing. |
