    My brother doesn't get the kilt thing and neither does my father-in-law that my wife and I share a 4-plex with (the inlaws have a downtairs apartment) . I get the occassional "eye-roll and sigh", but they haven't rejected me because of it.

    They don't like it, but they do accept it.

    I've had the same reaction from my parents and brother. It's not that they are uncomfortable with displaying their thoughts, I've known them long enough that I know what they were thinking. They know that if they don't like then too flipping bad. But i'm not going to force it on them either. It's a two way street. I have my kilting time (with kilted friends), I have my family time (un-kilted).
