Wife...

[SteveB]

It does take time,
Dave from Boston, Massachusetts.
The thrifty is my house kilt. My spouse is used to the fact that I attend church kilted, and that other men attend the same church kilted. Still does not want to be seen with me kilted, but that is even starting to thaw after about six months, even asked me to wear the kilt, for pictures to go to the family. My students refer to me as the kilted teacher. That will change as one of the other kilties in the church is joining the religious education team for next year. Both male RE teachers kilted.
Spouse's family wants me kilted at an up coming event.

I am not a wife, but perhaps someday I will be. I do know that what my significant other wears wrapped around his bum does not matter a huge amount, as long as it's clean. And Ironed.

What makes him happy makes me happy. I like to learn about kilts and to discuss them, partly because I'm a textile nerd, and partly because they are a bit of a passion for Yeti, and it makes me happy to be a part of that. Just like it makes me happy when he learned to knit (he's getting there). He is happy and confident in a kilt, so I am okay with it. Although it's not much of a stretch from the sort of thing my family does, so I may be numb to such weirdness.

I just got through telling my wife that it seems most of the guys on this forum wear kilts as part of their daily life...even to work. She just turned around and said "NO".

I said, "Why?"

She said, "My husband is NOT wearing a skirt everyday!"

...it's gonna be a loooong road...

sounds familiar. my wife bought me a Black Watch for Christmas but doesn't want to see me in it around the house.

Ereryone has to deal with this kind of thing in their own way. I will not presume to say my way is best for your relationship. But I had a to just let my wife know that she could take me with the kilt as part of my everyday look or we could get a divorce. There are just some things a woman has no place telling me.
