BTW, my kilt is far and away the most masculine-feeling thing in my wardrobe. I never feel more butch, more macho, more masculine (maybe even more male) than in a kilt. So in one sense a kilt is even less of a compromise than wearing trousers, since it's uber-male. (OTOH, I cope better with wearing a kilt because it registers as "stage clothes" for me, like garb does, so it doesn't push the same "in disguise in the world" buttons.)
I suppose it is very male.. certainly one needs to be confident of oneself to wear a kilt outside of Scotland or RenFaire.. I wonder if thats how others percieve it though?
