No one would look at me twice when I wore my kilt.
-
I would be the star of the show.
-
There would be a happy medium between being noticed and not.
-
Only the naysayers would be rounded up and deported.

Darn!
Based on the title I thought this was another thread about gin! 
sigh
I voted for a happy medium.
It is best and happily I seem to have found it in my day to day kilted life
The secret I think is to just wear the kilt and go about your business 
Cheers

I voted for happy medium, because I have to admit I do like some of the attention.
In the perfect world, wearing the kilt would draw no bad remarks, only good.

I voted for "happy medium". The positive attention can be nice as others will feel inclined to talk to you at social events. But you also have to take lumps with your gravy sometimes!

Jamie, now I like you.
But as to the central theme of this thread, I say thank you CDNSushi, (and Guiness,) quite thought provoking indeed. I do enjoy the attention, but as a occasional kiltie I do wish kilts were more widely accepted. How ironic that the most masculine of garments is connected with feminist traits by the ignorant masses. (Living in Georgia, I know ignorant masses.) My perfect world would accept all forms of dress,............except the vulgar, (like jeans worn below the butt.)............ So there is no perfect world, unless we are willing to accept everything we find unacceptable.
Respectfully,
David
