Hi Shadowfax, and everyone, prepare for a rant!
For starters, strike Scottish and read, "Why can't MEN admit what the kilt is really about"?
Then Mark Smith himself,
“But how many men are hiding their true feelings? How many men would like to try “women’s clothes”? And how many of them are secretly doing it when they put on their kilts?”
In a nutshell, the Kilt is the most stealthy, devious and misunderstood man skirt money can buy.
Wake up and smell the coffee folks, this is hardly the latest news, just look at café history to discover how deep this really runs.
There is also a whole raft of discussion around the kilt being an “entry level” skirt for men.
While I don’t subscribe to this notion, I will concede that it is for a portion of men in skirts.
Now the ranty bit, look around some of the latest posts about men in skirts moving forward.
It’s not great, is it?
Are kilts, modern and traditional still selling well?
Yes, they are actually, despite the fact that they are largely based on hype, money and political scullduggery.
The conclusion has to be that a lot of men are wearing kilts as skirts hidden in plain sight.
There is no evidence, whatsoever to suggest that any significant portion of kilt wearers are breaking cover and running across the aisle to show their true feelings.
Fact is folks, there is no answer, so no point in twisting your knickers or bunching your panties over this worm-eaten old potato.
Men do this, just because they are men who are afraid, for a multiplicity of reasons, to admit their leanings.
Finally, another interesting point, that piece was published in 2021, around the same time those threads appeared here, synchronicity or something else.
Still no answer, except wear whatever you wish, but if the truth is unpalatable, keep the lies to yourself.
Steve.
