SUPER! Great, job well done!

I think I'll celebrate by ordering a MaCleran or a Nightstocker from SWK!

FREEDOM!

The unbifurcated male garment is a go as long as it doesn't distract me or any coworkers from their jobs. I assured her that I'd be fine but that I'd appreciate help in knowing whether or not it's a problem for others.

Baby steps.

Congratulations. Remember to wear the kilt with pride, and continue on in the professional manner you always have. I'm sure you will get lots of questions the first few days, but that should settle down quickly. Good luck lad.

Well done sir!!

May you have positive results.

Do be prepared. I found the worst "teasing" came from coworkers, particularly a lesbian woman who usually wore skirts to work. Was as if I'd usurped her "look." She did ask me what I wore under the kilt and how I managed to "sit down in the men's room" wearing the kilt. Not teasing, a hostile edge.

Most common remark from male coworkers was "Why?"

Most common remarks from female coworkers were ones of approval.

A suggestion. Wear underwear. Worst thing that could happen at work would be falling and exposing. Has happened to me twice, but always wore underwear on the job. Life happens. Can't be too careful.

Other suggestion is to wear black underwear. I started with tartan boxers figuring if something showed at least it'd be tartan. Kids today don't worry about underwear showing but feedback I got from disapproving bosses wasn't so accepting. The tartan boxers made any bit of exposure most evident. Switching to black eliminated the problem, just becomes a shadow.

Hope you're able to open up a few more days as acceptance grows.

Congratulations! Really quite an inspiring read and I'm glad it all worked out for you.

If I could, I think I'd wear the Law Enforcement Officer's Memorial Tartan to work (being a Police Officer) but I know it'd violate uniform regs. Someone a few pages back posted about wearing a uniform but considered wearing a kilt; my advice would be to really read up on your uniform regs before trying that. You may violate them, and then be disciplined, which no one wants.

Congrats on winning your boss over! Well done.

I distinctly remember Grant (ccga3359) posting a picture of himself some time ago of him in his Coast Guard duty uniform and his maple leaf four-yard (made by MacHummel) standing on the bow of his patrol boat. I thought he looked exceptional in that particular picture (He generally looks mediocre at best in most other pictures he puts up, though.) You might want to ask him about it.
