Wow, talk about a timely thread! My wife this morning got upset with me because I came downstairs dressed for work in a kilt again (for those keeping track, this is day 3!). She has been a little cool to the idea, but until today did not really say anything. She said she does not care if I wear one on the weekends, but is afraid that it might hurt my career at work and thereby hurt our personal financial situation and so affects here and our daughters. She brought this up as I was leaving to take the girls to school so I did not respond as I thought it would be a longer conversation we had time for. Got to work to see a fairly strong email from her that I will not share, but hurt me because it was pretty specific on what she would do if I continued to wear a kilt to work. I am basically floored. I knew from reading others posts that the lovely women in our lives usually are the most resistant to us wearing kilts, but I thought I was not going to have that issue since she had not brought it up before now. I responded back to her that I would not do anything detrimental to my career (I really like my job!) and that I had insured before hand that it would be accepted in the office by my boss and HR.

I guess I really don't have much to add to this thread, just sharing really, but I would echo that wearing a kilt for me is fun. Do I get some more attention? Yes, but nowhere near the attention that my wife and I receive when out with our 2 darling adopted daughters. They are so cute that nobody cares about us or what we are wearing.

Sigh, sitting here kilted at work and depressed, which doesn't seem right somehow.
