Even if I could have worn my kilt to high school, the type of people that I encountered there would have done their best to make me miserable. However, I do wear my kilt to my college classes quite frequently. At least once a week, but usually more than that.

On a personal level, I have long hair and have always been part of an artistic circle. It wasn't so hard for me to adjust to standing out. With a little time, the nasty comments just seemed to go unheard.
