I've found that opinions on that matter range as frequently as with any other group of people. Some love it, some thinks it odd, others find it inappropriate. There is a long standing tradition in the church with Polynesians, some of which wear lava-lava's (sp?)-another skirt-like garment- without any protest. There is also a strong emphasis in the church on family history, and when explained that way usually strikes a positive chord with most. Not that there needs to be a family connection to wear the kilt- but it makes a bit more sense to those that aren’t 'in the know'. I lived in Salt Lake for about 7 years and wore my kilt frequently. Comments were pretty much the same there as anywhere else. Occasional ignorant insults shouted at you from passing cars, but mostly positive and supportive.
