Growing up I was the proverbial "98 pound weakling", and was constantly belittled and teased for it. As such I grew up with serious self-confidence issues. As I grew older my confidence levels grew with me, but not to a point where I was truly happy. Wearing kilts has done more to help that problem than anything else in my life. Like many of you, now I don't care if anyone thinks poorly of me for wearing a kilt, or anything else for that matter. I'm me, take it or leave it.
