    Hi from St. Louis, Missouri, USA

    Hi, I'm a 16 year old boy from Los Angeles, California, USA, but I've lived in St. Louis, Missouri, USA since I was knee high to a grasshopper (5 years old. Always a short boy, I was.). My profile-name can be explained too. Celt-I'm quarter Irish. GravityRebel-I play a non-competitive sport called parkour, which means I run on walls and vault railings and stuff like that to get from place-to-place (So I defy gravity). Anyways, I'm part Welsh, Bohemian, and Irish and enjoy wearing my kilts. I only have two but will definitely get more as I get older (because they are just awesome!). I also posess only one sporran, but that's also a collection in the making.

    My parents are a part of this website too (They are Mickey and TurboKittie) and are what got me into this website and the kilted world. My dad got me into wearing kilts. Naturally, I wear the kilts at school once in a while and, surprisingly , I'm not the only one. Many of the other theatre-kids wear kilts too for the comfort and because we are awesome like that. Lots of girls my age think I'm weird for wearing a "skirt." A- not a skirt. It's a kilt because that's what I did to the last guy who called it a skirt (I kilt him, mwahahaha. Ahem, anyways...). B- if they think I'm weird only for that, they don't know me very well. Their opinions don't matter though, I like my kilts so I'm gonna wear them with a smile.

    When I was sixteen the school system had finally dropped the school uniform thing. The day of its death, I arrived at school in full kit. The girls loved it but some of the boys thought of saying something about a skirt. They found out what it feels like to become a human form of the caber - over a barbed wire fence. My trouser inventory quickly went to zero, and stayed that way through university.

    Go for it.
