I was thinking of this last night and the fact of the matter is that kilts are just not that common in everyday life and you don't see them that often (yes, there is the Internet which is the Oracle of all knowledge but pretend for a moment that you have been living on the moon and don't know about it).

Now imagine that someone hands you a kilt and says "here, put this on". Wouldn't you naturally assume that you SIT DOWN on the flat part so as not to crush the pleats and you wear it with the decorative pleats in the front so everyone can see them?

I mean....it sort of seems logical, doesn't it?

No. Anyone who thinks before they act would realize that the buckles would be wrong to begin with, why would anyone place the buckles backward? And anyone who thinks before they act gets some information on whatever they want to do if they know nothing about the subject to begin with, that's how dangerous situations form but there are fools out there and every once in a while they do something that draws attention to themselves and then here we are discussing the problem and trying to make excuses for them. It seems to me that they lack the ability to think or are deliberately trying to insult the wearing of the kilt.
