    This pretty much mirrors my own feelings but I would add that my wife likes it and I like the way I look in it.

    I confess, I'd wear a chicken suit if it made her happy.

    I figure a kilt is an easy way by comparision.

    I wear a kilt because:

    1. It's comfortable and I want to.
    2. It's much easier on me to put on a kilt than pants because of my bad leg.
    3. It's much easier to take off my kilt when I need to!
    4. It feels dressier than pants.
    5. I look damn good in it if I do say so myself.
    6. It helps reinforce the fact that I'm eccentric and damn proud of it.
    7. It makes me more memorable.
    8. Nopadon loves the way I look in a kilt.
    9. It's a great conversation starter.
    10. Most importantly, I like the kilt and I want to wear the kilt and I don't care what anyone else says.

    Comfort, I sit for a living.

    My Heritage.

    And because I'm old enough I can do what I wanna.

    But mostly comfort.
