    I'm a better man Kilted.

    Yes, I takes take a bit more of something to go kilted. Since i am not a full time wearer i find myself wanting to get out my kilt and head out from time to time. Feeling that excitement as you put it on, not knowing what to expect from encounters with folks.
    I recall the first time i donned one, as i stepped out toward a large group of folks. What a feeling almost transforming" Kind of a "Here i go" Like a parachute jump for the first time not kinowing what to expect, scary, Exciting, blood flowing a bit stronger chest out, posture a bit more upright. OH YEA, here it comes. Gonna get the kilt out tonight........

    Whilst I am not a full time kilt wearer I am certainly more confident about myself. 5 years ago I would have worried about wearing a kilt in public in my local town, now I don't give a damn what others think. If they don't like it then it's their problem.

    I dare to say it changed my life.

    I'm no longer worried about what other people think of me...their problem, not mine. I just enjoy wearing a kilt...the look, the feel, the swing, the tartan, the freedom, the pride...the lot.

    People look at me and that's fine...I wear a kilt and I wear it with great pride.

    I'm still the same guy I was before...but the guy is now wearing a kilt and is more aware...and I agree with Ron...I'm more myself.

    Cheers to the kilt and the tartan!
