Well met Norm. I've only owned and worn a kilt since May of this year. Unlike you, I had a skeptical wife unsure of my sanity. This photo is from yesterday's Ole Miss game with Tennessee (Homecoming). She now accepts my attire with pride and a quick word to other ladies, "That's my man!"

Hola from Spain. I just wore mine in England for the first time with a disapproving son, but in the end it was no big deal.

Yes you do. I would suggest you force yourself to wear the kilt at every opportunity until it really doesn't bother you how it makes others react. Within a week you'll lose all feelings of self-consciousness when kilted. The fact is most people will stare but they either engage you in polite conversation, flirt with you, or quickly get over the fact you're in a kilt and go on with their business.

Welcome to the group, Norm! Glad you and your wife both like kilts.

Hi Norm and a warm welcome from sunny Queensland!

Might be a good idea if your "Better Half" accompanies you on your first outing to the store - she can help fend off all the admiring ladies wanting to flirt with you!
