I approve of this topic 100%!
Reading these comments really made me chuckle and feel further inspired! Ok, I live in London, am English and have a girlfriend, so kind of typical male here I suppose. Except I like to dress in more exciting and yes, stylish ways than your typical guy. I draw inspiration from preppy styles and eras like the 60's and add my own twist. I have gone to the pub or sightseeing many a time wearing one of my kilts. And without wanting to tempt fate or anything, my reception from complete strangers has been warm and positive. Some people, mainly females - young to old, would say things like "I love your kilt, fantastic" "Wow, great kilt, are you going commando under there? 'smile' "
And without being directly spoken to, I have heard other comments. Once I heard a family in a pub sitting behind me. The lady remarked to her husband I assume, that that man looked very nice in that tartan. Maybe she was hinting at her husband to try something like that...? Who knows? But its good to plant that seed in peoples minds. The more of us there are wearing kilts is going to hopefully inspire others to shake off that shy inhibition and perhaps take that plunge!
