My wife and 20 y/o son like my kilt. Even my in-law's whom could be described as intelligent, mainstream Texas folk (Paris, TX, actually) liked my kilt when I participated in a wedding in Texas on August 1st. During the wedding the only negative response was from a 90-ish y/o lady who shakily comment "who is the man in the skirt?" Like most X-er's, I'm now beyond being offended at others' shortsightedness, staunch conceptions of male modes of dress or hostility at something they don't understanding. However, considering the elderly lady's fragile state of mind, I appreciated her confusion.
