I assume this discussion refers to modern U. S. society. Try going to your next business meeting, or for that matter, just walking down the street in a kilt. -- All opinions are mine alone...

It's no' fittin' dress for a lassie! "Hey, Jock, is aall nything worn under your kilt?" "No, lassie, it works as well as ever it did!"

Have you ever been to Seattle? You never have, you say? Oh, then I guess you haven't seen men in kilts walking around in daylight going about their normal business. I have. I've also seen quite a number of people who wear mideavil (sp?) costume, complete with sword, cloak, etc., who dress that normally and go to work in it. Actually, current fashion trends seem to be moving more towards women in slacks and men in dresses than ever before. orstcs!richardt "The Apparition" Richard Threadgill 1230 NW 23rd #7 - SnailMail address recently changed Corvallis Or "You put the tribbles *Where*???" -- Captain Kirk, loosely
