Please correct me if I'm off-base, but I'd like to see if I can turn this around:
I would say that this is like saying, "Because I've seen SOME people who wear PANTS who also "moon" in public (drop their pants to show their buttocks), I should be able to ask ANYONE who wears pants as to their underwear preferences."
Somehow, when I change the words, it doesn't make as strong an argument.
However, I do agree with Mark. I believe that the problem with voluntary kilt-lifting at weddings may be due to the fact that the majority of these people are not full- or part-time kilt-wearers, and are wearing the kilt for one day of their life for the purpose of the wedding, and therefore, do not respect it as a normal manner of dress and instead view it as a costume.
