Greetings, all,
My name is Sebastyen, and I'm new to the kilt, and really haven't worn one except to renaissance fairs and the like, though I must admit to really desiring to wear one nearly all the time. I guess, being in South Texas (where traditions die hard) that I'm nervous.
I'm studying to be a nurse, I'm 6'6", 320lbs, and love survival skills (hunting, fishing, hiking, camping, etc.) I ride a motorcycle roughly 90% of the year here (so, ah, going 'native' under a kilt would be a little uncomfortable for me).
Has anyone any advice for countering the possible snickers, sidelong comments, and inevitable questions of curiosity that I am bound to get when I make the switch?
my thanks...
Oh, yeah, I'm of Russian descent, hence the screen name:
