Funny you should mention that. The most surprised response (I'm not sure I'd go as far as to say it was negative, just surprised) I've gotten to my UKs was from a guy at work who claims to be very open-minded. He quickly progressed through uncomfortable smirking and then went back to acting normally after a few hours of adjustment time. Now he tells me he thinks it's cool that I have the confidence to wear the kilt.
Some of the people I thought might have been the most shocked made no more mention of it than a smile and a quick compliment.
I've had a few people do a double-take and then tell me they liked my kilt, but they thought I was wearing athletic shorts from a distance because I looked too comfortable (still not sure what that meant).
I have yet to see any reactions that I would classify as negative.
