Prince Charles wears a kilt, too, although I can see that might not endear him to the Scots. Perhaps when he's eventually king all the English will don kilts!
Brilliant insight. Nursery school teachers are intellectually inferior. Those without academic qualifications are intellectually inferior. Wearing a kilt makes you a more sympathetic figure. Got it.

Interesting that the kilted intellectual was unable to see that the marriage was doomed to failure due to his bride's intellectual inferiority.
