    This thread has finally crossed the line.

    There have been several very reasonable responses posted about the differences between Modern/Contemporary kilts and traditional Scottish ones. The Moderators have tried to be open and allow this discussion to continue to hopefuly come to a natural conclusion.

    X Marks the Scot is a place for contemporary/modern kilt wearers as well as Traditional Scottish Kilts. We are just as much about about wearing a Utilikilt Workman to a rock concert as we are about putting on Highland dress to a céilidh.

    No one has argued that a modern/contemporary kilt ia a traditional Scottish Kilt.

    But as far as XMTS goes modern/contemporary kilts are kilts and discussion of them is welcomed and encouraged.

    The word "kilt" has evolved to cover a range of skirts for men that are intended/ designed as masculine garments.

    Whether or not people can accept this is up to them. What we the moderating staff will not accept are individuals accusing significant numbers of our membership of cross dressing. That is completely out of line and those that are incapable of showing respect to others here on XMTS will be contacted by the Moderators.
