Several things that you need to know about wearing the kilt.
#1 It will initially draw attention to you. If you can't handle this attention (be it good or bad) don't wear the kilt.
#2 It is an extremely comfortable way of dressing.
#3 Many people have pre-conceived ideas about the kilt.
You need to examine just why you want to wear the kilt, and what price you are willing to pay for doing so.
You will get both positive and negative reactions from wearing the kilt. Those who are your true friends will accept your choice, those who are not true friends will not.
Some people are insecure, and need to ridicule others in an attempt to bolster their own self-esteem.
Be true to yourself, and worry less what others think. Examine your own motives and make a choice. Do you really want to wear the kilt? I think you may not yet be ready.
