    One of the issues is that some people have never see a Kilt or seen a kiltie wearing his Kilt. The chances of seeing another Kiltie are very small.
    We accept wearing the Kilt as a way of life. People who spend their life in Walmart in their pajamas are unlikely to recognise that a gentleman is wearing a kilt. If a kiltie goes out with a partner in a pleated skirt some folks think the lady is wearing a Kilt and her male Partner is wearing a
    skirt. I convinced someone that a lady who was wearing a pencil skirt was wearing a European version of a Figian male wrap over garment without the wrap over aprons but with a vent in the back. They considered the lady was wearing a kilt without any aprons, and considered I was wearing a skirt. I find the easiest thing to do is to ignore people who laugh at you and shout abuse, as I do not have the vocabulary to banter
    with their bad manners and lack of education regarding popular current fashion trends. Roderick Powell
