YES!!!!

I just heard that a woman's magazine (don't know which one), released a poll stating that 68% of women prefer men in kilts! I don't know what's wrong with the other 32%.

There is nothing "wrong" with the other 32%. Most of my friends are not fans. We are normal women that just don't care for it.

Great news, Lethearen. And just as well you have it on record, too!
Now to see whether anyone else will wear the kilt as well!
Regards,
Mike

With the greatest respect, I wonder what makes some folk think they've a right to decry others doing something they most likely do themselves every day.
Unless of course the 'normal' 32% never wear jeans, shirts, trainers (sneakers) etc - even with their husband's endorsement...

Excellent! Kudos to your employer.

I've been kilted at work almost two years straight. The first time I walked in and my supervisor saw me, she said" Nice legs for a white guy. You look good." and that was all that was said. It's great when you work in a section and are the only male in it.

Cheers to all,

Brian

I had the fine pleasure of meeting the very lovely Wife last year whilst I was in that neck of the woods. I can assure you, nothing is wrong with her! Or any other lass who may not care for kilts. Just a matter of taste. Besides, I don't trust statistics. They say whatever the person soliciting them wants them to say.

My company also preaches diversity, and I think that's giving me some protection. Well, that and my HR rep (who happens to be a smokin' hot mid-20s blonde... too bad she's in KY) couldn't actually find a concrete dress code.

Possibly, but you'd likely have to move to KY... maybe TX or CA, but most of our stuff is in KY. Definitely nothing in AZ

I've worn it a couple times in the past year. Most people ignore it, other than possibly a quick double-take. A few people have commented positively on it, and I managed to get two to look into getting a kilt. They haven't, though... and I don't expect they ever will, sadly.
