Being from Yorkshire, a kilt is not appropriate although I could support my wifes clan, but more importantly, I hate spending the pennies, when I could have a tartan mini skirt for $20

I can't complain about THAT.. I wear suits to important occasions. I wear a kilt to those that MATTER.
(Yes, I own a full, 8 yard kilt. Sporran (I made it) , sgian dubh, proper brogues)
My step daughter got married last year. She wanted to wear Gordon colors for the wedding. I was ecstatic! We want over the combinations based on the version of the plaid. My oldest daughter and my step daughter got into all kinds of arguments as to colors for dresses, until I shared links of all the variants.
Once my step daughter understood, she gravitated towards one. The battle colors.
I said "What better colors to show up for your wedding in?!?!?!" Scare him off or make him stand!

I have worn a kilt a few times, always at weddings,
Much better crossdressing and wearing a skirt
man i feel like a woman
Both men and women wear kilts. The design is slightly different but only slightly. And a women's kilt is a kilt not a kilted skirt! And then there are Billie kilts - they're definitely not menswear!
Hello from Scotland. Guys wear kilts. Girls wear skirts. OK?
Susan, I can't see why you got so upset with the replies, your OP was open ended and not specific about answers !
Sometimes our threads don't go where they're intended, if it's not that important just go with the flow !
If I can add my little story, I was photographing a wedding and the groom, bestman and attendants wore kilts. I was taking a break when two girls crept up behind the groom and best man and pointed their cameras up their kilts, the funniest part was seeing their kilts light up when the flashes went off ! I just hope they weren't CDers because the cameras did the rounds at the reception !!
Hi,'
Then youll have to answer to our Drum majors of our Scottish pipes and drums as to what men or women wear on parade and then youll see what we wear . women do not wear a sporran only women in our bands wear them the men of cause do ,
And both mens and womens wear is much better now than say many years ago.
and had i joined our Timaru pipes and drums i would be wearing what is issued to our band .
...noeleena...
Kilts are worn in Ireland too particularly in Irish dancing. These are far more skirt like and can be in various colours particularly saffron. I remember being quite jealous of boys who were wearing what looked very like mini skirts when they were dancing. Paired with white socks and dancing shoes and the whole effect was rather feminine.
So if a GG in Scotland wears a kilt, is she considered a crossdresser?
It's complicated, then again it's simple ... where did I put that skirt?
