Newbie says: "Newbie do!"

[Panache]

My neighbor looked at us on the way there and said "I'm glad my wife isn't here. She loves guys in kilts". All the other parents (well Moms that is) at school just had smiles and compliments. The question I kept getting was "What's the special occasion?" I replied "the occasion is that this is the day I was brave enough to wear my kilt out to school".

One of the moms (and a friend) lives on my street, and she told me her daughter had come running up to her from the window saying "Mom, Mom, Tristan's Daddy is wearing a skirt!". Not bothering to look for herself she informed her daughter "No Tristan's Daddy is not wearing a skirt". When she came to school and saw me she went "OH! That explains everything" :rolleyes:

So far it has been a fun day.

Yeah, the advice about having your wife with you is the best. My fiancee being with me when I'm out gives me the feeling that at least the people won't take me for a cross dresser. That and two little girls tagging along behind calling me daddy. Then as the confidence builds I did more solo trips, then gradually develop a bit more of a strut. I've gotten way more positive than negative comments, although I do wish people would lay off the bagpipe questions.

Now I look forward to shopping or trips out so I can get kilted up and strut around in public. It's great fun.

Congratualtions on the kilted style. I think now you shall discover you need more kilts. You realize there are 7 days in a week, and 3 meals a day...12 months a year...365 days a year.. How big is your closet?

Well Oswulf, y'know, when someone asks ya in a snotty or derisive way where your bagpipes are you can just say "Under my kilt" and walk away.
