    That couldnt be more true! When I wore a kilt at my wedding, everyone said I looked like I was born to wear one, I stood tall, strutted, swaggered and marched. It makes you feel strong, proud, powerful and free.

    A man in a kilt is a man and a half!!!

    Seriously - when one is kilted, we just take more pride in how we look and the overall confidence level ramps up.

    I have nothing to add to what the others have so eloquently voiced, except that I whole heartedly agree and do feel more manly in my kilt, I am already 6'1" and at 235 lbs that seems to really freak people out.

    I love straping on a kilt after a hard days work, it does make you feel more manly.

    That is one of the first things that I noticed, very early in my kilted life a woman at work told me I stand taller, and I strut when I'm kilted. Her comment was that she loved it and wished her husband wore one.

    I told my wife that I feel like a MAN when I put on the kilt.

    She said... "You can't have one"

    Seriously though; I do find myself stomping along, and walking taller. I seem to feel more like myself somehow. And I take more pride in my appearance.

    I have to agree with Ozman. I find I'm more concerned that my kit is together and everything matches more when I'm kilted.

    My family has been from neutral to very supportive of my being kilted (save the 15 yr old S Son)

    I do indeed feel more relaxed and yet standing taller in my kilts.

    Cheers,

    Marshal Moroni
