Wearing a kilt out and about

[craigclan]

The first time i wore my kilt out was to my local thrift store and walmart . I got lots of stares and people running into things as they turned there heads to look at me when they walked by . Just made me giggle to myself . People will always stare and make comments but hey who cares , Just wear it and enjoy wearing it .

Reminds me second time i wore a kilt was at a shooting festival my bagpipe band was playing i was walking through the stalls and a little girl said to her mum "mummy, why is that man wearing a skirt." i burst into laughter. it cheered me up all day i didnt hear the mums reply though

I recently played my pipes at a local Christmas tree lighting festival, so I was kilted up and all. After the outdoor lighting, there were cookies and hot cocoa indoors. As I walked in, one lad of about three years in age walked up to me and crouched down next to my kilt hem to see if, indeed, he saw what he saw. I guess he was trying to convince himself that men wore this type of garment. Or else he was checking out my sgian dubh! His Mom was mildly embarrassed; I told her not to worry. She explained to him about the kilt and why I had it on. She did a fine job to explain it to her young son. His response was: he nodded, took another look and ran off to the cookie table. Problem solved!

I walked into a restaurant in a kilt with my daughter one day as a man and his little girl walked out. The girl stopped in the door, pointed at my daughter and said, "Look daddy! She has a purse!"
