I'm still relatively new to this, and have discovered a couple of advantages of wearing a kilt which I didn't expect. The first is that with just a quick shake of the leg you get a bellows affect, which helps to ventilate and cool (I always overheat in a tee shirt, dress shirt, tie and jacket. Couldn't do anything about it before).

The second (and best) thing is that when I put my arm around my wife and she rests her hand on my knee, it's really on my knee.
