What the heck is up with that? Anyone else expericence this?????
I just have to ask.......on the occasions that you feel self conscious--were you stoned or on any dope that may have caused it---also, are you nervous and timid in other types of situations??? the reason I bring this up is that you said you were nervous at first--then you weren't--and now you are noticing peoples reactions--it's important to feel confident when wearing your kilt (mine actually makes me feel MORE confident) you won't see Pacific Islanders looking uncomfortable in a sarong--or Africans looking uncomfortable in a dashiki because it's a traditional and cultural thing with them--same as the kilt is with me--I wear mine as a sign of cultural pride, and if somebody wants to laugh it's because they have no culture or have forgotten where they came from and the trials and tribulations their ancestors went through to come to America!!! be the bigger person and wear your kilt with pride and to hell with the small minded idiots!!!!!
