Kilts in Church,..your experience?
My wife made sure I did, what an time it was.
I woke up, put on my brand new UK for the third day in a row and proceeded to church with the wife and kids. I anticipated most of the elbow ribbing from the boys at church, but it was taken very well by the lads for the most part.
The women though, I didn't see this coming.
One fella starts laughin at me in my "skirt". I told him his red hair tells me his grandparents wore them and he just kept walkin, but 2 seconds later his girlfriend walks by me and says "I really like your kilt."
I noticed I'm getting a great deal of looks from people but the people asking the most questions were the ladies.
"Whats the story behind your new fashion?
"When did you start wearing those?"
I just kept answering that I have a great deal of Celtic heritage in my family and wanted one, and now that I have one I know longer want to wear pants.
90% of the ladies who seen it "loved" it. The other 10 just couldn't get why a guy would want to wear one.
I'd say about 30-50% of the guys responded well to it while the rest seemed a little put off by the idea, but not judgmental what so ever.
Only one married lady said she'd never let her husband get one,....but we'll see about that. 
The Pastor was cool with it, his wife liked it, the lady who leads worship loved it and all in all the church staff were great about it. I had a friend call me this evening and say I made quite a stir (he was giggling). I guess I could see why.lol Big, Tattooed, Bald, and kilted. HAHAHA, I LOVE IT!
God bless Kilts!
Cheers
PS, Anyone else wear their kilts to their prospective house of worship or along those lines?
