    Smile, wear the kilt with confidence, and people will be fine with it the vast majority of the time and places. It gets easier to ignore them all the time you wear your kilt.
    Reminds me of a quote I learned in India.... "offense is not given, it is taken" I think this is the same with kilts. If you're happy, who the heck cares what those around think.
    "A veteran, whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve, is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it." anon

    Very true. We have no real control over what others say or do, but we have complete control over how we react to it.
