Well, the short ones, aren't. However, the longer kilts are. They  
don't seem to have been in fashion for as long as many people assume  
they were, though. And they were worn my the Highland Scots, not all  
of those in Scotland.

Since some folks jumped on Judith for some blanket statements she  
made, although none were Alys, I'm going to show equal opportunity  
here... :-)

<<< The ladies on this list just
automatically seem to want to disrobe the gentlemen!  Togas! >>>

Oh, does this mean that the next SCA-Cooks pot luck is being moved to  
the "Men Without Pants" party at Pennsic?  :-)
