    The answer to this is in this very post. It is a common male garment FOR YOU (as well as the rest of the rabble, myself included, here.) However, you must realize by "common" I'm referring to common in society. That, it is not. Which leads to my next comment.

    Perhaps these "mundane" postings are the excitement of some due to positive responses and/or acceptance of the kilt in a modern world? No harm in a little enthusiasm eh?

    You'll find the greater majority of guys on this forum began wearing the kilt MUCH later in life than this. So, you will most certainly find a tremendous amount of the "newbie" experiences.
