Dropped out of kilt wearing circles

[cessna152towser]

Hi, just joined the forum and it's re-assuring to read that many other men are still wearing the kilt. I used to wear a kilt for playing bagpipes - till I sold my pipes to help pay for flying lessons (where a kilt isn't practicable wear). I used to wear a kilt to Scottish Country dancing until my wife took a stroke and so we had to give it up. My wife bought me a black kilt a few years back which I thought I would only ever wear to occasional funerals then a few weeks after I got it I suffered a leg injury and couldn't get into trousers so teemed it up with Argyle Jacket, white shirt and black tie and black hose as a kilt suit to wear to the office. It was so well received that after my leg was healed I still wore it occasionally to the office and also to conferences. Then I changed my job and stopped wearing it. Wife says I've still got the legs for the kilt, at 54, and would like me to start wearing it again. But so few men wear kilts even here in Scotland nowadays and those that do all look so much younger and more macho and I've bottled out of stepping out the door kilted a few times now. Please give me encouragement.
