Question

[KiltedKnight]

I really can't understand what the problem is. I met my wife over 20 years ago and at that time I had been wearing kilts for years. I was still in the Army at that time. It was quite a culture shock for my wife who is of Mexican descent. The only compromise that I have ever had to make was to wear a tuxedo to the wedding since many, and I mean MANY of her relatives would be coming from Mexico and all over the States to attend our wedding. I could have worn my Army Dress Whites or Army Dress Blues but I wore a tux to keep everything neutral.

Since then I have worn a kilt to any other family get together or office party and generally get a lot of attention because of the kilt. My in-laws neighborhood is all Mexican but the majority of the folks remember me arriving in uniform at one point and kilted at another so there has never been any real problems. I have to think that it's all in the way one wears the kilt, if you are uncomfortable or not confident wearing your kilt it will show, and those that are the type to start with the insults will, just to get a rise out of you. My wife says I have an aire of confidence even wearing an open backed hospital gown...lol!
