    My favorite comment was (her exact words) "Wow you look hot! And that's coming from a lesbian."

    Great story! Kilt ON!

    I, too, have received those kinds of comments. It's a very nice thing.

    Those kinds of comments are the ones I value t he most, comming from adult/senior persons.

    Your story reminded me of the Scots Senior Lady i met at a fabric store while kilted and she told me how nice to see a kilted man in this country and how glad to know I was wearing a sporran.

    Good on you and get ready for many more nice comments!

    Just finished an entire week kilted on vacation in N.C. Was at an antique shop with my wife. A group of 'older' women smiled and said that they liked the kilt. After I passed, I heard one say "I never thought I'd be a skirt chaser...but..." ;-)

    I turned and winked at her. The group erupted into laughter.

    Were they wearing red-hats? The rowdy crew that my wife hangs out with are certainly capable of that sort of comment.

    I got a similar one re a 4th Friday (street festival here) when a 50+ matron in our church choir said she saw me, an thought I looked "hot" . . . . when you are 75, that is a compliment from a kid!

    Older women and cat-calls;-)

    Carolina Kiltman-

    They did resemble the Red Hat Society women...very proper Southern women enjoying a cool day in the mountains and the gifts at all the stores in Highlands ;-)

    It's interesting to be oggled in SUCH a dignified manner --HA!

    Have to admit--everyone I saw in and around Franklin N.C. had pleasant comments.

    AND I got to make it to the Tartan Museum!!!!!!
