Indeed, it does free up the symbol of our gender making it comfy to do almost anything. And I do mean anything. My wife and I have horses and I have one kilt relegated to barn work (it can be washed instead of dry cleaned) and on hot days it is incredibly cooler than shorts. And I live just outside of Memphis and it gets hot and humid here. Now in the winter, if you have a heavier kilt (say an 8 yard made of wool) and heavy socks (also of wool) its plenty warm even in freezing weather. I am Scottish (on both sides) but was born and raised here. In the winter, in the old days, men who wore the great kilt (made from a giant wool sheet tartan) would get the kilt damp. This would cause the wool fibers to expand thus blocking out the wind and increase warmth. Hope this helps. Sláinte!

It was beautiful (cold as all hell, but beautiful). He and the groom wore kilts - full formal wear, jacket, sporrans and correct socks with the little tufty garters and all :) They both asked how we women stood wearing skirts in the middle of winter :) Hubby was best man at a wedding in a Church just outside of Oban, Scotland.

I'll have to look them up. I think kilts are hot, but I had never thought about kilts vs. pants in terms of, um, "crotch comfort" until I found the Kiltmen website. (It's kind of like that other mystery: Why do men's bikes have the bar across the top where they can do serious damage?) If they could get over the social stigma, what man WOULDN'T want to wear a kilt? J Do the Rogues have a website? I’ll have to look them up.

He keeps talking about getting a kilt, and I keep hoping. There is a Celtic group we really like called the Rogues. Yum. I love men in kilts. Hubby and I go to the Renaissance festivals all the time.
