Just to keep things in prospective, remember that woman had a movement. There were woman's groups all over the western world since the early 1900's trying to get more rights for woman, and during the 40's the shift started to move toward pants in the work place. If you worked in a bank in the 50's and most of the employees were woman and most of them wanted to ware pants, and even some of this number belonged to groups that held rallies on the rights of woman, it's really hard to compare that to the one lone guy in an office wanting to wear his kilt at work. We all like democracy, and democracy is all about the majority. But in a democracy, even the needs and wants of the minority need to be considered. This is done to ensure that all get basic human rights. However some minorities are just to small to ever be recognized, especially if the basic human rights are being covered. If only 1 out of 200 000 people wears a kilt, and only 1 in 1 000 000 would like to wear it at work, well you do the math. Most people see a kilt as a special garment worn only at special events, and most if even educated (even with some of the questionable facts I often see on the board) well not change their mind. Remember folks, "he who pays the piper, calls the tune". We may not always like how things are done, especially in regards to ourselves, but at the end of the day, that's life.. so carry on. For those who are able to wear their kilt at work, that's great... for those that can't.. think hard about your actions before you appear to your boss like a spoiled child pleading for a new toy.
