Welcome and good luck with the wife. I had to work on mine for awhile to get her to come around. Start by wearing one around the house some, then talk with her (well in advance) about wearing it out with her. Be patient. My wife is not to the FHCAG status of making me kilts, yet, but at least she is becoming more tolerant. It has taken me years to get her to this point.

I think part of the problem is this: if you are in a kilt with your wife, then no one is looking AT HER since everyone is admiring your kilt.

Keep up the gentle pressure, and good luck!
