    I love seeing men in kilts. I haven't worn one myself, seeing as I haven't dated a 'true' Scot ;) and aren't they only for males?

    Kilts are great as are Scots. ;)

    I would only wear one, however, if I had any ties with the clan of which the tartan were on the kilt. Otherwise it would be like wearing someone else's name or coat of arms. ;)

    I can wear Ancient Weir, Buchannan from the traditional Scottish kilts. I've also seen Scottish American and Irish American Tartans. Since I'm Scotch-Irish AND American, I'd rather wear those.

    Never worn one since kilts are for men. However I like the way they look on men.

    Kilts are nice, however the only person I have seen wearing one apart from on ceremonial occasions was a complete ******* and I can't comment on the eye candiness :)

    I have to wear a kilt for school :rolleyes: because now I'm a senior. At least this is my last year! Hate the stupid kilt pins...they're so huge and kinda scary. At least the pattern on my kilt is still alright...It's really long and heavy though.

    I have actually seen a few Asians wearing kilts, though not anywhere outside of Ireland and Scotland.

    Dressed up as a scott a few times in my brother's garment. Got pretty tired of all the people who wanted to lift the thing up to see my bagpipe. And I was even less interested in dancing on the bar or tables.

    Anyway, kilts are nice.

    Kilts are quite confy! I have a one that I bought during my time in Scotland and have worn it a couple of times. I don't know if it still fits me, though...

    Btw, a reason why I like kilts is Haggis McMutton, a rowdy pirate from the Barbery Coast (The Curse of Monkey Island). When you're in a storm with your ship, Haggis' shipmate Van Helgen asks him to lend him a hand. "I can't! I got all hands on meself!" Haggis answers while struggling to keep his kilt down. :p

    @ Scottish Collie: :lol: Yep! That's him! Here is a list of CMI videos, take the 10th, called 'Shipwreck'.

    @ Enagonios: My roommate borrowed my CMI, and he has XP. It works on his machine.

    There is this guy in my hometown who always wears a kilt. Always the same print. I suppose he's realy into some old clan or something...

    I've never worn a kilt, and I probably never will. :bad:

    I've got nothing against them, but I'd be the laughing stock of the town if I ever put one on. :shake: :rolling:
