      i just looked for utility kilts on Amazon, lived 5 years in Scotland and never bought one due to choice anxiety.

      keep in mind 99% of kilt rules aren’t Scottish, they are English rules made to ban and contol kilt usage. wear them however the fuck you want. unless you have an emotional connection to a specific org/clan you don’t need to get a specific pattern.

      about your wife, imagine the roles being reversed, she wants to wear something but won’t because she fears your disapproval. see how that sounds? I feel guilty just making up that hypothetical. wear what you like, it isn’t your wife’s business, she can approve or ignore it.

        oh, it’s not that, i just don’t want to rub her nose in it. she normally celebrates my unusualness but this is one i feel like i’ve got to ease her into.
