    WEAR YOUR KILT WITH PRIDE!

    Shine your shoes. Press your shirt. Look in a mirror before you walk out of the house.

    Then when you walk down the halls, do it with your shoulders back, your head up and a BIG smile on your face.

    Very soon you will find that the girls at your school will start to say hi to you. They will start to say hi back to you when you smile at them.

    Soon after that, the guys who hurled insults will start to ask about where they can get a kilt too.

    The kilt is the best "Babe magnet" ever invented. What better way to get back at those who call you "******" than by having two, three or more girls asking you to the next dance.

    It is quiet confidance that will win over your detractors. Quiet confidance that will win over the ladies.

    If anyone ever says anything else to you in the hall, quietly stop, turn to them and quietly say, "Oh you think it's funny I wear a kilt? Watch this." And then find the greatest Babe you can see. Walk up to her and quietly say, "Excuse me (insert her name here), but can you show me the correct way to sweep my pleats when I sit down? I know you ladies learn that in secret girl school and I was hoping you could show me."

    Soon, very soon, every guy in your school will be asking you for advice on how to approach girls and get them to talk to them like that.

    Walking down the hall and having every girl say "Hi Andrew" is the greatest payback in the world.

    Listen to this man. He is wise.

    The last time some one called me ******, I turned to look the imbecil in the eye, sized him down and up, and said with a sneer of redoubtable superiority, "Uh... That's Mr. ****** to you!" The offender slinked off.

    Rex,

    Great retort; really got a big laugh out of it. Well done.

    In theory there is no difference between theory and practice but in practice there is.

    Take Wizard's advice and look forward to college where the crowd is a little more mature. My hat is off to you for taking up kilt wearing in high school. After everyone gets used to your kilt wearing and the girls pay more attention to you, the detractors will shut up.

    Don't tell me. This was probably some guy with his pants halfway down his butt and he had to keep ahold of them or they would fall off.:rolleyes:

    If that was the case, remember his fashion choice is influenced by prison wear.

    The kilt is worn by members of a proud military tradition, who have served with distinction in combat around the world.

    Guess which one I think is more impressive?
