About a month ago, I posted teh following on the Utilikilt Yahoo group.

Today I had a UK encounter that disturbs me. This is the third for fouth time that this has happened to me in the 4 years I have worn UKs.

I was out at a flea market and I hear a guy say, "Hey a utility kilt, cool." I turned around and met this guy. He comes up and shakes my hand then says that he has one at home. I immediately ask, "Why aren't you wearing it?" He gets a little shame faced, looks down at his son (about 10) then stammers an excuse about doing yard work and not wanting to hurt his legs (he was wearing shorts).

Now I admit that when I bought my first UK, I never expected to own 9 and almost never wear pants, but really, it took me about 5 min of wearing it the first time that I decided that I would wear it when ever possible.

I just hate that guys are buying UK's as a "Once a year" wear item of clothing.
I only made the comment about UK's there, but it applies to all kilts in my opinion. I did get several people jumping on me for being a kilt nazi, saying that guys should all wear their kilts all the time (not my point, but interpreted that way).
