Women in Utilikilts

Next thing we know, they will be complaining that we leave the lids up!

This subject has come up in various forms in the last year, and inevitably it comes down to the arguement that the kilt is a men's garment and women are invading on our turf. This has applied whether it was about kilts, sporrans or even playing the Highland bagpipes.

Kilt wearers feel like they're being trampled on. Kilt makers are ecstatic.

I LOVE the look of a woman in a kilt... even a UtiliKilt. It's sexy, strong and supportive.

They're just collectively proving that they have impeccable taste.

I like a number of folks have been looking for an inexpensive way to break in kilt ownership. Last June while on vacation in Seattle We stopped by the Utilikilts shop and looked over the goods. I bought a kaki original for myself, and an olive for her. We both loved them, and she ordered me an olive for our anniversary.
This past weekend at the Scottish games here in Tulsa, she bought a black workman’s from the Utilikilts booth. Yesterday I ordered us both an Amerikilt in marpat! When she wears one it’s a kilt, and not a skirt. She also comments that kilts are much better than a skirt. Do I feel threatened by her kilt wear? No, why should I? It takes nothing from me, and in fact it adds to my kilt wearing experience.
Do I take issue with a woman in the mens room? Hell yes, but I fail to see the correlation. And yes, my wife believes when in Rome do as the Romans! She wears hers regimental too!

That web site includes an analysis which states that womens' skirts are designed to be sexy rather than practical. Just the opposite of a Utilikilt. If a woman wants to wear a practical unbifurcated garment what are her options?

Women are controlling by nature. Its just part of their biological thingy. I gave up trying to figure it out. I just turn around and do my own thing... No offense to the ladies in this board.

Erm...this might not be my place, but can we watch that this doesn't turn into a rant against women or a 'things we don't like about women' post. I think Riverkilt brings up a good subject and a potentially significant one, it's just sad when people start dropping posts that don't really add anything to the subject and come across a little as rants.

My thinking is that it's posisble that there's something within their nature that females need to identify and keep in check, just as there is in males, and perhaps it may relate to this subject of men often feeling as though their territory is being invaded leaving them nowhere to themselves.

I think I would rather see a woman 'out' of a UK..... ;)
