Welcome from the wooded hills of Tennessee. Put it on and get out in it. It is the most comfortable garment you will have in your wardrobe and you'll find most reactions to your wearing it to be positive (and any that are not to be a lesson in human character). As for the "pleat sweep": I grew up in the days when women still wore skirts and learned a lot from them about how to bend down (not over), sit without exposing your "self" and how to "sweep your pleats" (a rather "sexy" maneuver in-itself not lost on women any more than it is on men when a woman does it). Happy kilting and welcome!!!

Hi Simon, you’ve ruined it I was the only one in our area that wears a Kilt, but very glad you have one. It's funny and you will find this that people will want to say hello and good morning to you I don't know why but it happens a lot to me and of course you will get the odd kid taking the piss from time to time, in North Baddesley they had stopped doing it as they all know be now and to them I'm just a normal wearing different clothes to them and it is not a skirt. Good luck in wearing your Kilt and wear it with pride. My tartan in Anderson.

A warm Scottish welcome from middle England. I like the new Forest idea for your virgin outing, but take your kilt for a walk in the countryside around Lyndhurst. I was out and about in mine last weekend in the Portsmouth area and no one batted an eyelid, at least that I noticed, in either of the pubs I visited. Only comments were positive at the wedding I was attending, where contrary to expectations, mine was the only kilt.
If you are going to do it, do it in a kilt!
