    Welcome from the highlands of North Atlanta.

    You might try taking your wife with you to places like the Highland Games and Scottish Festivals where lots of guys are wearing kilts. She will see that you are not alone in your love for the kilt and that lots of guys do own and wear kilts. My wife doesn't go to the festivals with me but I take a lot of pictures to show her. As she becomes used to seeing the kilt on others she will become more comfortable with you wearing the kilt.

    Don't push the envelope on the regimental bit, the battle isn't worth fighting with your wife. As Turpin said, honor her wishes, beside, there are also some benefits for you.

    Welcome to the forum and the addiction! Memhpis is one of my fav. places to visit! Great people and great music!

    Give your wife time and she'll become more comfortable with your kilt wearing. Nothing (including wearing a kilt) is worth making you home life an unhappy place! Just give her time.

    I know your pain. My wife is not supportive at all. I'm using the perseverance method, where eventually all things give way. She is getting better, having stated that I actually looked good ( freshly pressed O'Neille) and two days ago went shopping with me.


    Patience and perseverance.

    welcome the the rabble!

    Welcome Dirks,

    Used to live over in Bristol about 1970 and wandered them back roads and hollers.

    Tell your wife that, were he alive to day, Elvis would wear kilts. Seriously, I was channeling his spirit last night and he told me that. Really.
