Perhaps my wife is a social prude and gives me nothing but grief saying that I am trying to make a spectacle of myself for wearing clothing that is part of my heritage. I find it ironic that she and other community members doesn't have anything to say when a Sikh wears a robe and tuban, or Muslims walk around in a Najib. But a Scot wearing a kilt is just someone trying to draw attention to themselves and must be commented on.

I am curious if this is common around the X-Mark community, or if I just have the pleasure of being the ground breaker in my town.
Did you mean mainly Europeans or was manly a pun!!! here in France I get quite a few complements on my Kilt and mostly from women which is very nice. Kit
