QUOTE (hilander1299 @ Dec 11 2003, 01:53 AM) | I wear the kilt with pride .... wind gusts aside .... it is all a part of heritage is it not ???? |
I wear a kilt for two reasons: 1. I reenact a private soldier of the 42nd RHR during the early part of the American Revolution. The kilt was demonstrably a part of their uniform. See the photo of me in my profile. 2. At other times, I just enjoy the feel of wearing a modern kilt. I am primarily Irish and English in extraction, with no discernable Scottish ancestry. I just enjoy the option of wearing a piece of apparel that is comfortable and, let's face it, different. I don't need to be of Scottish ancestry to wear a kilt, anymore than a Scot would have to prove his lineage from an American cowboy or gold miner to wear blue jeans. I just like to wear it. And by the way, a good kilt pin will help with those windy days. Just my tuppence. Andy

I have great respect for the followers of any religion, and I love all people, and the "sanctity" of anyones belief....If I get an inkling that a person is adding a comment because they think that the religion is hollywood cool, I will question them.
