Or kilt envy...

A thread in the Lounge (hi Sandie... ;) ) reminded me of something I discovered back when I was in college. There is a company I heard about that made kilts. Not truly Scotish kilts but generic kilts of all sorts.

I've always thought wearing a kilt would be the coolest thing (fashion-wise and in regards to comfort...) I saw these kilts and thought something like this would be comfortable to wear during warm weather, which is something we have commonly where I live. I haven't had a fear of being different for a long time, and wouldn't have a problem with sticking out in the crowd so to speak. Before I met my birth mother I had very little knowledge of what my heritage was, so I shied away from attempting to wear one of these kilts because I felt it would be "poseurish" if I wasn't Scotish, but these kilts seemed to be generic in design (i.e. they don't have the color of any tartan) so I tought it would be OK to wear one with out offending anyone Scottish. But I never persued getting one. Only a few years ago I did discover that I am of (more than likely a bit less) approx. 25 percent Scottish decent, so if somebody asked if I was Scotish I could truthfully say that I was, and I do actually know what my (biological) family tartan is (I have a Scottish surname on my sealed birth certificate)

This is what I'm curious about...

What do you (guys and gals) think of a male wearing a kilt as everyday clothing?

Do you think there is too much of an ethnic association with the wearing of a kilt (i.e. would it appear offensive or "poseur" for someone not necessarily of Scottish decent to wear one?)

In high school I had a male science teacher that wore a sari (I live in California BTW... I kid you not... his name was Mr. Rainbow, very much hippie)

What would you think about a male wearing a sari?
