Took me 30 years to get from seriously lacking male maturity to reach "Stupid." Smartest thing I'd done in a long time! The comments I receive are 9 in 10 complimentary, the rest, educational.
Go, have fun, don't work at, make it fun! Kilt them, for they know not, what they wear. Where am I now?

Sure there are other comments, some really weird...but the above is by far the most frequent for me.

Exactly!!!
Followed closely by: "Are you going commmando/wearing underwear?"

Life is short, man ... my wife of 21 years left me a few years ago. I was one of those guys who simply refused to consider divorce. She cheated, I forgave, she spent us into deep debt, I worked myself almost to death trying to pay for it. Finally she did what I just couldn't do, she demanded a divorce. It was horrible on every level.
I got divorced last year when my wife said she wanted me out of her life. I jumped at the chance. This was before I discovered kilts.
Now when I come home at night the cats greet me at the door and they are happy to see me. There is no yelling, no screaming, and life is peaceful for the first time in years. I don't have to deal with constant hatred. I think it's great.
I'm enjoying a peaceful life and wearing kilts. It doesn't get any better.

Turnin' 65 in a few days (9-1-06) and I can say that if I had known at age 16 what I know now about the power of the kilt... well (sigh)
My wife is long suffering, since I am at many Highland Games and have posed for unnumbered photos of themselves and a "real scot"
This weekend is the Highland Fling weekend at the Michigan RevFest and I usually go to help out a local pipe band and fill out its piping ranks. It is always a great place to "people watch" Some of these young ladies almost dress for the occasion.
The strangest comment was while at last year's renfest. I was about to purchase a pint at one of the little beer concessions when a group of customers (who well into their cups - so to speak) hailed me and one said "hey nice costume" I smiled. Since I was holding my set of pipes, the next question was, "can you play them?" I answered, "Aye, if ya kin buy this pint I'm about to enjoy." Free beer got them a tune.

calling it skirt.
If you can have a good scottish accent...it works in a very humeroous way.
