    Yes. I stand much straighter while wearing a kilt. I also have a bit more confidence in my self wich reflects in the way I walk, and scoutniagara stated a fact. I no longer have to "adjust" myself while wearing a kilt. Every thing is as nature intended.

    Your story about Rapa Nui, O'Neille, is very nice and quite probably pretty true.

    And this is really a great thread........

    I have noticed this as well. When I stand, my stance is different in a kilt than in trousers, most notably no pockets to stick my hands into and slouch over. Also, it is more comfortable to stand with the feet further apart. I have not tested it, but I think that if I stood the same way in trousers, I would look/feel like I was trying to straddle something. Not that my feet are that far apart, but the kilt provides some modesty that does not occur in pants.

    And I know that when I walk, I stand proud, and project my confidence.
