The UK product line is not marketed to women and it is not designed for women. Neither are kilts. Most miniskirts and women's tartan skirts or lady kilts, cross the aprons right over left and fasten on the left hip. Most all women's skirts similarly fasten and/or zip on the left hip. Men's kilts obviously fasten on the right hip. Therein is the major difference.
That said, if a woman wants to wear pants, board shorts or a men's kilt... that's fine, she can wear a tuxedo to her own wedding for all I care!
People have hangups about men's fashion, while women are free to do as they please. That's the culture we live in. We can't change that.
When people see a guy in a kilt, they say (or think), "Oh, he is Scotish (or Irish, or Welsh)." If you don't have a brogue, it makes them think... they seem to feel a need to re-evaluate the situation, ask questions or jump to conclusions, in order to "sort out" the "problem" they are preceiving... it is like something does not add up for them.
Most people are not knowledgable enough to question why a woman is in a UK or a kilt. It just gets past them alltogether.
