I just spent 5 days kilted at a retreat. 2 guys talked to me about their kilts and I told them they should have brought them.
I only got great comments from the people there. Some of the comments were:
1. I like your sense of style.
2. I like your kilts
3. I like your collection of skirts. (I laughed at this. But the woman was being nice)
4. My husband wears kilts. Seeing you in a kilt is like having him here.
The trickiest was talking to the Scots I met, as I didn't want to give to any offense.
To the Scottish lady, I said "I decided that if pants are good enough for the lasses, then the kilt is good enough for me." She like that!
To the Scottish gentleman I said, "Any man in a kilt is a Scot." He seemed satisfied with that response.
So I spent 5 happy days in the kilt. During the heat of the day, I was much cooler than the men in long pants. More people talked to me during this retreat than in previous retreats. Such is the power of the kilt
