Not really - just a clothing choice.

No - haven't ventured into kilted sailing yet!

Not consciously - but you do get attention!

Not a conscious lifestyle choice. Simply that I have collected so many kilts, all of which I like wearing, that there are very few days left for wearing the few trousers which I still own.
No I would not give up a hobby for full time kiltedness. I have been wearing black trousers on my days as an aviation museum volunteer this season.
No I do not seek attention. I prefer my kilts to go unnoticed and uncommented on.

- Is this a life style choice? Only in the sense that any clothing choice is.

- Do you give up a hobby, if it requires to wear pants? Or do you try to adopt the kilt into a hobby? None of my hobbies require any particular type of garment, but if pants were required for safety or what have you, sure I'd wear them.

- Are you doing it for attention? No, I'm wearing kilts full time (nearly 7 yrs) because I love the comfort, and the style as well. Much the same with my tattoos, those are for me. The fact of others liking them too, why, that's alright as well.

Eating vegetables isn't really a lifestyle choice, that's more of a health/nutrition issue. If you don't eat veggies, chances are you're going to become ill.

at some point kilt is a health issue. I wear kilt as most as I can, and it really hearts when I have to switch to pents(guess you guys know what I mean). I wear it during my work day and it cost me about a kilt a year mostly because I'm seating 12-14hrs a day and only motion I'm getting is the motion of my butt around a seat - not a life style choice but paying my bills very well.

Kilt is perfect for hiking, but I can't imagine riding a bike or sailing in a kilt, as has been mentioned, just might be deadly.

Life style, hm......., to me(aside from my heritage) kilt is like GHP symbol of war + most masculine and comfy garment known to man, so why shouldn't I wear it?

I've gone sailing in a kilt, but just a little 9 footer on a lake. Nothing serious like what Alan does.

- Is this a life style choice?
Eventually it turns into that. It really changes so much.
- Do you give up a hobby, if it requires to wear pants? Or do you try to adopt the kilt into a hobby?
Nah. I wear my pants when I need to.
- Are you doing it for attention?
Not really ... they it's impossible to ignore the advantages of a kilt.

- Is this a life style choice?
I feel it is, yes.

- Do you give up a hobby, if it requires to wear pants? Or do you try to adopt the kilt into a hobby?
I always try to incorporate the kilt into the hobby. However, I have quite a job when I was not allowed to wear the kilt to work. The kilt is that important to me and I don't own any pants.

- Are you doing it for attention?
Nope, I do it for the freedom and to show my allegiance to my family.. and because it's quite comfortable. My first kilt has lasted five years.. I don't know of many pants which would last that long.

hmmmmm....i just had an idea. kilts for our ice hockey team. we could wear a protective girdle underneath and our socks and shinpads as normal. might be intimidating.

Motorcycling is a life style. One that I made 10 years ago. Embracing my heritage is a newer commitment. I haven't figured out how to put the two together yet, not on wheels yet. I have worn a kilt to several biker functiones, just drove to get there. It was still cool enough to get away with that.
