There's a great deal of wisdom in the previous posts.
I too was a bit apprehensive at first, enough so that I chose a black Amerikilt for my first kilt in the hope that it would often be mistaken for black shorts. After more than a year of wearing the kilt daily I have become so unaware of it that I simply miss the point of people's comments unless they are quite pointed. For example, when I voted kilted and the election judge said, "Sir, this is an American election!" it took me a full three seconds to figure out that she was alluding to my kilt.
This is an example of the principle that "Those who matter don't mind and those who mind don't matter."
