and Doobs, a mans kilt is supposed to be about 1 hands width above his knee, not some Britney Spears looking plaid slut scarf that barely covers his crown jewels, lmao. In fact, kilts where more like wraps in the olden days, it was only after the English had made kilts and tartan illegal (1700's) that the English then decided they missed their lovely Whiskey too much and that plaid tartan was a rather spiffing thing to wear, so it was legalised again. It was then the Victorians that started to wear the style that is more commonly seen today. The older school kilts were full wraps that you would actually throw part of over your shoulder. This then allowed you to hunker down pretty much anywhere with your own portable tent.....My kilt is actually nearly 8 feet of material, it wraps around me almost twice, and has over 30 pleats and weighs quite a bit (even for a medium weight cloth). People often ask if I am cold, to which I am quite happy to reply, I have probably got the Sweatiest Gollocks around here...even going commando!
