Mainly a question to those of you who are resident in Scotland...

I spent a weekend in Edinburgh earlier in the year and was struck by how few men were actually wearing the kilt. In fact, I was and one guy who was busking was. Even the assistants in the kilt shops weren't. To be fair, no-one made any comments (even the kids, who I've tended to find are the most likely to make silly comments), except for two Japanese tourists who got very excited and wanted to have a picture taken with me.

But it did make me wonder just how common kilt wearing actually is in Scotland?

(Other than for formal events - when I've been to one or two of these in Aberdeen you were the odd-man-out if you DIDN'T wear a kilt.)

Any comments/observations, much appreciated.

Best wishes
Graham.
