Do you ever just NOT want the attention?

Nah! If someone asks me where my bagpipes are I tend to answer, "under the kilt, laddie, want to give them a try?" (unless there are those with tender ears present).

I rarely get unusual attention (and don't expect to). That said if someone asked me where my pipes were I'd simply say at home and keep walking. Short and simple.

My wife assumes i wear a kilt FOR the attention. not the case. Usually when i'm wearing one, I am 1,000 Times more self-conscious than any other times. Always looking around thinking "who's staring at me?" "What smart *** comments am i about to hear?"

I just give the asker a look says "You're a moron" and I say "At home, in their case. Where would they be?"

And no- I don't care about the attention one way or the other. Positive comments are nice, and I just don't care about the opinions of stupid people.

This is an interesting post. When I wear a kilt nothing changes. I don't walk differently, talk differently, relate to anyone differently. Therefore I don't get any different comments from anyone. Maybe it's because I'm a pastor and married for 20 years but I don't look for, expect, anticipate or encourage any other ladies (or guys for that matter) to make any advancements or comments to me than they otherwise would.

My first thought is that if you're (global you) getting a lot more attention than you normally do, you're putting something out there - it's not the kilt.
