Dollar Tree

[Dirk Skene]

I was in my local "everything's a buck" kind of store today picking up something and was startled at first by this black lady only slighty older that myself. She said "Oooo my stars! A real man in a real kilt! I wish I had my camera, cuz my husband is NOT gonna believe me!" I started laughing then she put her hand to her mouth and said "O' sir, I'm sorry if I offended you." I responded with a big smile "No mam' not at all. I just got tickled at your reaction to me." "Well," she continued "I have seen men in kilts on TV but they sure look even better in real life." I said "Thank you mam'"

Ye mean ye broke down and paid a whole dollar for sumptin?

Cool story... I love the gushing reactions that a few rare folk have.

Being the object of women's oggling is a hard burden for us kilted types (even old guys like me get attention), but someone has to do the job.

And a guy in a kilt is likely to do it well.

Cangratulations, Dirk.

See Dirkskene, I told you they were out there!

Are you kidding me? I love that attention! I eat it up! It absolutely makes my day

The power of the Kilt is strong in this one!

I work in downtown Atlanta, and I have found that most black women not only know what a kilt is, but love to see it on a guy. I get comments like;

"Yeah baby, them legs is workin good!"

"Where can I get me one of those?"

"Turpin, all the women think you're totally hot in those kilts!"

and more. The'y're not shy about expressing themselves, I'll tell you.

One day a server at McDonalds looked at me over the counter and burst out laughing. She had to go to the rear of the kitchen to recover. When she came back I was just standing there smiling at her, and she lost it all over. Someone else had to take my order.

I've noticed the same thing. Last spring I had a class with a black girl around my age who was forced to move here from New Orleans after Katrina. I wore the kilt to class. Class dismissed, and on my way out she was right behind me. She said [paraphrased] "I've never seen one of those on someone in person! That looks good I like it!"

Of course, I can't convey just how vocal and excited she was over the internet

Awesome, another cultral bridge built.
