    This issue comes up a lot. Wearing a kilt in public comes with some social issues, and a hefty dose of reality needs to be a part of our conversation. It does no good to encourage people to wear kilts everywhere, for any reason, and in any style, without understanding all these social issues. If all we have to say is, "yeah, go for it mate!" then we aren't having honest conversations. Will it dissuade some people from wearing the kilt as they planned? Perhaps. It's up to them, in the end.
    I would hope you realize that your third sentence contradicts your first.

    I maintain that if your first response to a question of "should I wear a kilt" is "no", before you even know where the kilt will be worn, for what reason, and in what style, then you are part of the reason that more people don't wear the kilt they own.
