Just heard on the news that another school has banned the kilt. Apparently, 19 out of 25 schools have a banned kilt policy now. SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU PUSH THE ENVELOPE

Kilts Banned

And this bothers you why????Rockslinger said:
High school kids are pretty much ALL under the age of 18... if you are angry because you won't be seeing very many high school girls in kilts, then I'd say you have bigger problems to deal with.
It bothers me because THEY WOULDN'T STOP PUSHING THE ENVELOPE. Life lesson number 29: DO NOT PUSH THE ENVELOPE! Schoolgirls have been wearing kilts for 10,000 years and now they are banned because THEY WOULDN'T STOP PUSHING THE ENVELOPE.Cycleguy007 said:
Enough said. Heard there is pillow fight involving Riley and a Mirage lady in another thread. Got to go.
10,000 years??? I think you might have a "slight" exaggeration there...Rockslinger said:
Although there may have been a very small percentage of girls that "pushed" the envelope, I suspect the reason for the banning has a lot more to do with this:

and the general "sexualization" of the sex industry as a whole for promoting this "look" and the guys that lust after this "look". It has very little if anything to do with the schools or the school girls themselves "pushing the envelope".

Actually, Ms Spears video may prove the 'pushing the envelope' theory. That skirt she's wearing is long by today's standards. And this video is what, not even 10 years old.
That being said, if the kilts are getting 3" or 4" shorter every 10 years, 10000 years ago they would have been wearing kilts that were 250 feet long
Just a minor nitpick, women wear skirts, men wear kilts. At least if you are a crusty old scottish type.
The Scottish and Irish clans have been displeased about the commercial use of there tartans! Symbols of there history being mocked. It happened ten years ago when grudged fashion was also exploiting tartan designs!This controversy in the school systems and other symbols of elitism should have no bearing on children.
Whether teenaged girls wear them or not, no biggie to me. They pushed the envelope, and are getting pushed back. So what? Are you going to miss it? I'm sure your favourite dancer will still have that outfit!
And teen girls have been pushing the envelope on dress since at least the 1950's... remember mini-skirts? This is not new.

I went to an all-girls Catholic highschool (RECENTLY!) and the girls would shorten their kilts to the extreme. Simple as the.
However, I have no doubt that the all-girls highschools would atleast not implement this policy for a long time. : )
The not-so-old days of hiking up kilts around the young, male teachers!
