Children Staring

[Graham]

Ron, I have never found myself among more than two Mormons at one time, so you are brave beyond measure for that alone.

But to be kilted, in the way only you can be kilted, in such a gathering...well, I can only stand and admire!

Mormons (in Australia) must be the most conservative people on earth in clothing.
they need to be freed from bondage to trousers.

where are my "rose coloured glasses", I see kilts on the horizon ;)

The last two Mormons I ran in to firmly believed that I was the Anti-Christ. They peddled away as fast as their bikes could carry them.

Quoted a certain verse about having no other Gospels, especially those delivered by angels.

Ron, I believe if I were to go in to that situation, they would probably stone me.

I was at a family cook-out yesterday and noticed the same stunned stare from most of the kids there when I arrived kilted. After about ten minutes the look was gone and I was barraged with questions about what was I wearing,why are you wearing a skirt and so forth.After a lengthy Q&A session they all pretty much thought it was cool and several asked their parents if they could get one! :-D :-D

EXCELLENT outcome!

Future kilt wearers.

Most parents I know would be relieved or delighted if you were to say to them, "Would your children like to ask me about my kilt?" It shows you respect them as parents, and are open to children's questions, without being pushy.
