    It is so rare to get negative comments.. but, I am 6'2" and 250#. Maybe people are just careful I don't hear them.

    When walking into a Starbuck’s on Sunday, I had a guy obviously snickering at my kilt and before he could say anything his girlfriend yells out, "Oh my, that is soooo sexy! I love a man in a kilt!" She turned to her boyfriend and said, "I'll bet you aren't confident enough to wear a one, are you?" The smirk on his face was GONE in a flash and was replaced with a look of panic. He just stammered and mumbled something like, "I'm not Irish." She said, "I don't care!" I chipped in, "You don't have to be Scottish or Irish to wear a kilt.. it really is part of our American heritage.. but, she is right, you have to be pretty damned confident to wear a kilt, most guys just don’t have the balls. There are a lot of homophobes that stoop to calling a kilt a dress. I figure they are just showing their insecurity or ignorance, it is hard to tell which, probably both.”



    Damn, she was really cute too.

    IMNSHO, if you'd been of a mind, you could probably have walked out of Starbucks with that young lady on your arm if you'd made a little effort.

    You know, I gave up my modeling career to wear a kilt...

    I am the fifth one over on the process of evolution charts. Monobrow, sloped forehead, no neck, overbuilt muscular skeletal structure.

    All I have to do is furrow my brow and give my best angry cro magnon or neanderthal look. It usually does the trick.
