To your question.

I like kilts. I like Scots (both decendents like me and those who are still in Scotland), and I came to admire the style of the kilt many years ago. I didn't have the courage to actually wear one until in my 40s, but since then, I have found there are few places I won't wear a kilt. (A hog killin' comes to mind, but there aren't many other places.)

It is, indeed a matter of style, just like trousers, tee shirts, and jeans. It's also a matter of pride. And it's a matter of comfort. and it's a matter of being cool when I am past the age of cool.

I don't care why anyone does anything they do as long as they don't hurt me or someone else, whether it's wearing a kilt, wearing their pants below their butts, or dancing nude in the moonlight. I like it when beautiful women come up to me when kilted and talk. I am no longer either young or handsome, but it's nice to be interesting to females. And girls like kilts.

I also find that I can do some neat stuff with kilted styles: weat khaki shirts, sweaters, wool jackets, black tie Prince Charlies, or formal doublets--all with the same kilt! Try that with one pair of trousers.

And because I am something of an extrovert, I guess I like to make a little bit of a show. And I can do that in a kilt, make myself and everyone else happy (people always smile when they see my kilt), and make a bit of a fashion splash.

I just plain look better kilted! And I only wear tartan kilts because that's what I like. I may get a canvas one some day, but I doubt it. But then, I don't care if someone else does.

Have a nice day and a wonderful life. Life is better kilted.
