Wearing a kilt out and about

[Laird_M]

My first, non-event kilt wearing was due to sun burn - yes, even in Scotland you can get BAD sun burn, so was wearing it for comfort.
I only got positive remarks, and quite a few questions about the tartan. Having worn a sarong, I thought nothing of it, and it wasn't until a friend remarked on the fact he'd seen me and asked didn't I feel self consious that I even considered it.
If you feel confident to wear it, forget the idiots who make 'hilarious' remarks and ask dumb questions ("don't you feel a prat wearing a skirt?" they may just be jealous or too insecure to try it themselves, and just take pride in the fact that you CAN wear it, with panache and style. Its your kilt, you bought it to wear it, so do so. End of story.
