    I called my mom on the this one. She said that it all depends on which animal is being worn but there are some she is fond of.

    I've voted that I've seen quite a few that I've liked.

    My husband's raccoon ("Rocky") is quite fun, and when he and Way2Fractious wear their full masks together (Richard's is a skunk, and he made both of them) they get quite a lot of attention (not all of it good).

    My daughter also enjoys them quite a bit, but I don't think I'll vote twice, as she has not yet reached voting age!

    Some of us "lady folk" are less easily disturbed than others.

    Be well,

    I have a badger. It is a bit larger than I would like, however a friend made it for me. And all of the ladies important to me including my daughter and grandaughter like it. But I like it for casual wear so I will wear it.

    I posted Mrs Kiltman's answer. She doesn't really care for them and has seen very few good ones.

    My SO said when I googled pictures for her "Hey! That's kinda cool!" And then I started showing her more and her opinion changed to "Interesting..." and finally ended at "They're ok... but a little creepy." That was after I started calling our kitty, who is laying at my lap, Sporran. Her real name is Barbossa, but she'd make a pretty sporran.

    LMAO! That is a very wise statement. Though I like full mask, my wife on the other hand not so much.

    I like the full fur sporrans, but am not fond of the face, or the mask part, so I guess I would vote no...if I were female. Who knows, the look of the kilt has grown on me, so maybe these will as well.

    My wife would be an emphatic NO.

    My wife says, it depends on the sporran. She has seen some she likes, and others she doesn't.

    My wife is very supportive, loves the kilts for any and all occasions... just discovered where her "line" is: full mask sporrans. A big no-go for her.

    Interesting....with 40 votes in, over half are... YUCK!

    ...and only 3 are unequivocally positive.

    I kind of suspected this
