I think a big part of it is a person's own subconscious. When a person first goes out in a kilt, there is always that voice in the back of your head saying, "Hey, I'm wearing a kilt." This happens no matter how confident you are, because you are doing something different. Other people notice this, even if they don't realize what they are noticing.

As you wear the kilt more and more, it becomes a common part of your life, so you are no longer broadcasting your presence. Thus, people react to you less.

I do think, as has been suggested, that many of us do like standing out and drawing a bit of attention. I call it my "inner peacock."

That's not the problem at all, Glen. At your age, you just don't hear as well as you used to so you're just not hearing them.

I heartily agree with Dave here. I think Glen that you simply wear your kilts so naturally that they just don't stand out that much to people.

I don't have an "inner peacock", I have an exceptionally vain "outer peacock".
