    Smile Coming out of lurkdom

    Hello all,

    I've been reading for a couple of months now, & I've enjoyed the forum immensely.

    I have two kilted sons, an 8 yo & a 20 yo. They both wear the Gunn ancient kilts to festivals & occasionally to church. The oldest also enjoys wearing his on campus (he commutes to university). They have been kilted for about two years, & my oldest says he has never experienced any anxiety about wearing a kilt. He attends Dallas Baptist U., & most of the reactions he gets are from other guys who think it's very cool.

    In the movie "Raising Helen," there is some reference to a "sexy man of God" that some of Benj's (oldest son) female friends were joking about. So, on the first day of classes this semester Benj wore his kilt, & right after chapel leaned to one of the gals & said, "I'm a sexy man of God!"

    No shyness there!

    Both the lads are interested in black kilts, so I may venture into some kilt making myself. And my DD would love a kilted skirt. I am an advanced seamstress, so all the sewing & fitting is no problem.

    I look forward to visiting with you all around the forum.

    Sherry
