Omigosh! DFO you are so mean. With one photo you’ve totally demolished all my Mel Gibson/Braveheart/kilt fantasies.
Ugh.

Yes. Yes I would. The kilt is an ancient and proud garment, and should be worn with pride, but not underwear.

I have worn my clan kilt in public and would do so again.

In my youth, when I was an avid folk dancer, I occasionally wore the Johnston plaid with pride.
