Well that was an interesting experience.

I think I'd at least set the record straight by informing the boss's boss that I was wearing a kilt and not a woman's skirt -- maybe have a photo handy.
He's still likely to give same answer about wearing it, but at least it will be based on accurate information.

This may go back to the other thread but perhaps a tartan kilt could prove easier for some (narrow-minded) to accept. They would be less apt to disapprove of your heritage than a guy in a camo kilt.

I did some gentle digging and found out that one or two people had a problem with it and rather than say something to me, they said something to their manager and it went up the chain. Given the way my manager described it, I imagine his manager likely wouldn't personally have a problem with a kilt, but he chose a conservative option.

S'okay. At least I've done it, if only once. :-)

Wade.
