Great story from the old country, thanks Derek.
People like kilts. Was at the hardware store in my little rural town yesteday in my black UK workman's.
A rolly polly young lady with a Jack Sprat tall lean boyfriend said "Nice Kilt, where'd you get it?" For some reason had tucked some cards in a pocket when I left home, usually don't carry them. Gave her a card which she immediately passed to her man...
I agree, getting used to wearing kilts, walking proud with a bit of swagger, swing, strut, whatever...makes all the difference.
Went from the hardware store to Safeway...was wearing a lesbian band black t shirt with the black kilt...ran into a young lesbian client who gave me a big smile...don't know if it was the kilt, or the shirt, or both...but she experienced a moment of joy.....which was really cool since she's being treated for depression.
