Please Wear Underpants Beneath Your Kilt

As a native Scot, Im going out on Friday night, in kilt and no pants....its Scottish Law !!!

The ridicule a man gets by wearing pants isnt worth the hassle.

ps. Its definitely not unhygenic.

Now, wheres my pet haggis !!

Never! It's not unhygienic (unless you're hitching the kilt up over your arse to sit down), and your spurren covers your twig and berries! Some PC fucktard has his panties in a knot and should bugger off. It takes a real man to wear a kilt and the pilock that suggested this will probably want us all to wear thongs next! Geez.

I didn't do wear pants under my kilt at my wedding, I'm not about to start now!

"Bath" isn't just a city.

I'm an American who wears a Utilikilt regularly. Why exactly does the "Authority" think men should wear underpants under their kilt? It's not unhygenic, unless you're filthy anyway. A kilt is heavy enough, nobody gets to see under it unless you show them. I think Mr. Wilton is just being a neo-Victorian prude. That said, even in Victorian times, men did not wear anything under their kilts. Why start now?

Good advice if you will be going through U.S. airport security especially.

Please specify exactly what type of underwear to wear as to comply with the almighty Scottish Tartan Authority.

The original traditional kilt is much longer than the modern ceremonial kilt. Accidental exposure is, therefore, much less likely when wearing a proper kilt than the silly modern thing.

@T12 - "what type of underwear?" - why panties of course.

Bwahahahaha - men wearing skirts.

Insisting that kilt wearers wear underpants for decency's sake is not all that different from insisting that women wear full-coverage bras for decency's sake. Is anyone still doing that? (Well lots of people who have breastfed a child, yes, but that's not for decency's sake.)
I think kilt wearers should continue to provide hilarious animated gifs for the sake of the internet.

Nonononononono.
Dudes.
DO
WEAR
UNDERPANTS.
PLEASE.

I remember there was a Scottish festival in the park behind our house every year. It was pretty sad how much accidental exposure can happen, so underwear is highly recommended.

If any other man were to walk down the street and accidentally expose himself, he would be arrested. Wearing a kilt sans undergarments seems to be an irresponsible and risky act. If you're gonna do it, be preapared to be arrested for any accidents.

"The original traditional kilt is much longer than the modern ceremonial kilt. Accidental exposure is, therefore, much less likely when wearing a proper kilt than the silly modern thing."

Nope. Both the modern tailored kilt and the old great kilt fall to the knee plus or minus. Historically it was often more minus than plus. The great kilt is longer, but that's because a large portion is above and about the belt line.

But yeah, wear some boxers or something. Or at least put something heavy in your sporran.

The sporran is a good weighted manpurse that can hold the front of the kilt from flying up in the wind.

My uncle always went commando when he wore his kilt for parties and special occasions. He was very popular with the ladies who'd been drinking. They always wanted to know what he was wearing under his kilt. He always invited the ladies to "Ha' a wee peek". Sobered those gals right up. Commando for the win!!!

As an old Scot said to me, when I asked if they wear underpants with them, "If you're wearing underpants, its a fuckin' dress!"

"Brian Wilton" Is full of it. The man has no scottish heritage. There have been repeated calls for him to resign from the tartans authority because he has no scottish heritage and sorely lacking knowledge of scottish tradition. He only got the position of director because of his involvement in fabric manufacture.

Fuck him, and fuck his opinionated bullshit.

True scots wear the Kilt, and ONLY the kilt.

As a Scotsman myself I find this Brian Wilton quite offensive. Thanks to him the image of us lads commando in our kilts is that we are all unhygienic. Not true. Here in Scotland some people would disappointed to discover underwear was being worn. In fact it is more embarrassing to caught with underwear on that without. It will always be commando for me and my mates.

What a lot of crap is talked about when it comes to my national dress. Apart from some military mis-guided theories as to what was or wasn't worn by Highland Scots under their kilts, there is nothing in history to suggest that it was considered anything less than masculine, less nationalistic, hygienic or not to wear pants. There is one Hell of an urban myth surrounding this issue. You go with what is comfortable to YOU!
The numpties from the so-called Tartan Army and those readily inclined at weddings etc. to show everyone a naked, spotted, hairy arse are totally demeaning the kilt and all it stands for. I find it all tragically pathetic.

I'm not Scottish, but Dutch and I have been wearing kilts to rock festivals last year, first with underpants - in fear of moshpit accidents ;) - then without. Reading these few comments has convinced me to continue in this fashion.
