Sir Sean Connery furious as Eurocrats rule traditional Scots kilt `womenswear`

25-Nov-2003 • Actor News

Eurocrats in Brussels have ruled that the traditional Scottish kilt is "womenswear".

There was a furious reaction from kilt wearers last night. 007 legend Sir Sean Connery said: "If this is the case, I have been wearing a woman`s skirt for more than 45 years now."



"I own several and I find them very comfortable."

"Joking apart, I am very proud to wear a kilt. It is certainly not womenswear. It is an important part of Scots tradition and also smart evening wear."

Thanks to YOLT for the alert.
