I can wear a dress to work and nobody criticizes me. I’d be really sad if I had to wear pants all the time, they’re just not as comfortable. Let’s normalize pretty dresses for dudes!

I wanted to buy one. Friend of mine intervened cause I'm not Scottish and It'd be cultural appropriation. It's she right? Or is she left?

Your friend doesn't sound very supportive. It shouldn't be a problem to wear a kilt, I own three and they're great when it's warm. ... Just not great when it's windy 👀.

Today's kilt today was invented in the 1720s by the Englishman Thomas Rawlinson.

I live in Scotland and I'd say, go right ahead. Scots aren't precious about the kilt at all, not like the diaspora. You don't even have to go with tartan!
