    Not yet. Not much of that in this part of the world.

    I live in a major city here in Ontario Canada and have had all sorts of run ins with teenagers and septuagenarians alike, most of the time it is a compliment, just the other day I ran into an older woman at our local Whole Foods from Scotland, we have talked before but this time I was in line paying and she interrupted me to say I made her day again. As for teenagers lately all I get from them is comments like "Awesome kilt." Once at work about 10 years ago a girl I worked with sang Donald wheres you're troosers to me when I came in for my shift. I was asked by an older Scottish woman what right I had wearing a kilt. The comments keep coming and for the emost part they are positive. I work in a church and often wear the kilt on a Sunday and everyone there really loves to see it.
