I had an odd experience the other day.I had to go to a formal dinner (black tie) and decided to wear my kilt instead of my tux as I hate tux's and find the kilt to be a little more comfortable (not to mention that I think they look better).
After the dinner, when people stand around and are supposed to be talking as though they actually had something interesting to say, I noticed three men looking and laughing at me. More out of boredom than actually taking offence to them I approached them and asked them if there was a problem that I could help them out with.
The immediate response from one of guys was, "nice dress, you gay?" to which a an elderly woman who is an aquatance of mine quickly responded, "no he's not, but you just insulted a seven foot (I'm actually only 6'9" but I let it slide) scottish man with a knife (actually called a skien dubh) in his sock, which begs me to ask you...are you an idiot?".
That aside I asked the guy what the big deal was and why he was so concerned with the way I dressed, he reponded that he took offense to gays and what was my problem?
My question to you all is a two parter.
1./ Does anyone else run into complete tools such as these in their everyday life?
2./ Is a dude in a Kilt that big of deal?
3./ Is your life so empty, that the fashion tastes and choices of others plague your mind and upset your every day life?
Are kilts those skirts guys wear?

No, Polynesian men wear palea's, which are also skirt-like. Unlike kilts, paleas are intended for casual use and not only for special occasions.
I have yet to see somebody who has the balls to talk shit to an Island Braddah who's the size of a refrigerator cuz one of us is wearin' a "skirt"
