The best remarks, in my opinion, are the kids and their innocence. This always prompts a panic of the parents. That makes my day. One little girl in particular wouldn't take her eyes off me and kept smiling while in line to order food at a deli. She kept tugging on her mom's shirt, but her mother was in deep conversation with her friend. Finally the girl piped up with "Mommy! Look at the man in the skirt!" Her mom heard her then, and quickly turned to correct her. Her mother apologized profusely. I assured her it was ok and then proceeded to talk to her little daughter about it. I told her it was a kilt and men from Scotland wear them. I then asked if she liked it to which she replied "Yeah!" Shortly later we were seated by them and I interrupted their lunch to give the little girl a cookie I bought for her because "she liked the kilt".

I've also gotten some laughs, primarily because the wind interrupted my stride. Nothing was exposed that I am aware of, but those that were around got a kick out of seeing the "Scotsman get wind blown up his kilt". Although, it did happen in front of a couple women once and all they did was give me a smile I thought was going to get me in trouble with the wife. Luckily I think she was more concerned of my backside being exposed.

But one thing I have noticed, and this is a reaction I get form the older ladies, is "the question." Has anyone else experienced this? I rarely get asked by any young ladies or ladies my age, but put that age over 50 and they have no issue asking "So, what DO you wear under the kilt?"
