My wife is the same about it. If you really think about it though, there is a much larger bulge in pants than in a kilt, it's just more obvious in a kilt.
I recall reading that as well.
My girlfriend was somewhat scandalized by the "sporran" on my AmeriKilt. "That's all? It doesn't hide much." So she made me wear my Rob Roy sporran with the AmeriKilt.
