Kilt Wearing Can Promote Mental Health

[O'Searcaigh]

For sure agree with self-confidence building and shame attacking. I'm a master's level Licensed Professional Counselor with 20 years in the business - mostly criminal justice, psych, and crisis. When I'm working in an office and not a prison or crisis wagon, often wear kilts. Some agency's management thinks its a distraction. I think it shows cultural pride and role models self-confidence. Fortunately, my current agency - a Navajo Nation run residential treatment center for addictions - likes me kilted.

Don't think any of my Navajo clients would wear a kilt. But have met Navajos of mixed blood who have Scot or Irish ancestors who do or want to.

And, medically, I think there's something inherently healthy about letting your boy parts have the natural freedom to adjust to the ambient temperatures providing a comfort that would contribute to mental peace.

20 years "in the business" -- you have my empathy, sympathy and admiration -- especially given the population of clients you serve.

Re: "boy parts" -- I don't know about "mental peace" there but there IS epidemiological evidence that it is healthier for 'em! "Kilts -- for a healthy mind and a healthy......"

You are very welcome. I saw some of your pictures on one of the other forum threads -- great look, no shame there (a bunch of deserved pride maybe! )

There are some who might argue that for the majority of human males, the two are effectively synonymous.
