    My hat is off to all of you teens who have the self-confidence and guts to do your own thing! No wonder all the girls fawn all over you...if that's not bravery, I don't know what is!! Highschool and adolescence can be a very difficult period in most people's lives...most of us were soooooo concerned about what others thought of us to be ourselves. I was no different.

    Darn, I wish you were in my school. But, back on topic. This is a teacher's perspective, but the more I have worn mine, the more 'fans' I get. I had several students come into my room asking me when I was going to wear my kilt. I had one write on my board her name and that she likes me to wear my kilt. It did take me almost 3 years to get to this point, but the idea is that most people will get used to it. You will always have a few students that never mature and act like children. I just ignore them.

    Since this is going to be in a high school, you'll want to use the polite lines, and not the really snappy ones.

    By far my favorite is still, in answer to "the Question"...

    "What are you wearing under that?"

    *raise foot forward a bit*

    "Boots"

    Good luck!
