    "I am wondering, Rob, if your son's experiences could have been due to his youth and possibly his not having as much confidence as some of us more 'mature' kilt wearers. Even a slight lack of confidence can make us vulnerable. Just a thought."--Hamish

    Hamish, your thought and my thoughts are exactly the same on this issue. Afterall, most 16 year olds, even a "man-sized one", haven't the experience and confidence of most of us more senior kilters or senior anythings.

    And some of it could be due not so much to his age, as to his time in a kilt! Sigh, I well remember those early days, when I was just sure everyone was looking at me when I went out kilted. (They still do, I just don't notice them anymore.)
