    That, in my experience is exactly it. The thing that continues to amaze me is the amount of confidence donning my trusty old Gunn tartan gives me, perhaps it's because my kilt was given to me by my father, I'm not sure.

    Good on you though Troy, the only way the general public will accept kilts is if they see them.

    Even where kilts are accepted, such as Scotland, getting people to accept their wearing outside of "special occasions" can only done by people seeing them outside of such events.

    And that takes people wearing them and edcuating people into ceasing to associate them with such events.
