The Dead Elvis Kilt Society of Memphis, Tennessee is a social organization dedicated to wearing of the kilt and promoting fellowship amongst its wearers.

Kiltwearers are bonded by their admiration of the garment’s comfort and practicality. Curiously then, why do women find trousers more comfortable than skirts?

At first glance this observation contradicts the obvious comfort of wrap-around garments. Upon closer examination, one sees that’s hardly the case. Kilts have distinct advantages over female skirts...

- Women complain that skirts are confining and inconvenient. Usually this refers to straight, tight skirts, or lengthy skirts that inhibit mobility. A kilt is the ideal length for masculine activity and has sufficient pleats to allow legs' unrestricted use.
- Women's skirts generally require the added discomfort of elevated heels and pantyhose. The kilt is worn with comfortable shoes and socks.
- Women wearing skirts must shave their legs. Conversely, men that wear kilts are strongly discouraged from doing so.
- Women in shortened skirts must worry about keeping together their legs when they sit. In contrast, a kilt has more than enough fabric allowing a man to comfortably spread his legs apart and the front comes down between them.
- Women complain that skirts are cold in the winter, whereas a kilt worn with woolen kilt hose is sufficiently warm.

After wearing a kilt, a man becomes aware how uncomfortable trousers are. Women don't suffer the same constriction that men must. Women are far more pre-adapted to trouser wear. With all the feminine adoration directed toward kilted men, there is no need to fear that masculinity will ever be questioned.

Anyone who doubts the masculinity of kilts must not have seen Braveheart or the Edinburgh Tattoo. The kilt must be the most macho garment on the planet. It is an enduring symbol of courage and maleness – after all, it was the garb of warriors of the Highland Clans and the traditional uniform of the Highland regiments.
