Thats a pretty big bit of realestate to be lost in! Hope those provisions you bought a Wal*Mart included a map!
.... Later I told her she handled it like a trooper. Knowing she was actually dealing with it inside even though it did not show. She said she just told herself " We are just going into a store like we have anyother time, it's no big deal.."
I think they're waiting for some kind of embarrasing scene that never comes. Once they see that you can handle yourself, that worry goes away. Mostly I think, people just assume that you're going to an event of some kind.
Just for the record, it took a solid year of exposure and positive feedback for my wife to finally come around. I now wear my kilts just about anywhere and my wife doesn't even comment.
It was a good experience for her and me... Nice exposure... Now Guys KEEP GETTING OUT THERE!
Here's a little project for you... wrap on your kilt, get your camera, and take your wife someplace where there's a bunch of people... like Wal*Mart... take a few pictures for your gallery. Tell your wife it's homework. Win win win situation!
cheers,
