Forget 23andMe and Ancestry.com!

I list 10 very Scottish characteristics and traits. If you display a number of these, there is a good chance you have Scottish blood coursing through your veins.

You are a member of a very special group — the diaspora — and the proud few that can claim Scotland, “the greatest wee country in the world,” as your ancestral home.

According to statistics, the number of Americans of Scottish descent today is estimated to be 20 to 25 million (up to 8.3% of the total U.S. population). That’s equivalent to the population of Florida.

That’s a fair-sized tartan army.

What William Wallace could have done to the English with an army of that size!

Raw and Brilliantly Scottish: A voice as colorful as the content

I absolutely loved So You Think You’re F***ing Scottish, Do You?. What really stood out to me was the raw, grassroots approach to the storytelling. It’s deeply personal without ever feeling cluttered or self-indulgent, and it delivers real facts and historical context in a way that’s genuinely funny and endlessly engaging.
The content is diverse, insightful, and refreshingly honest. There’s a confidence in how the stories are told — no padding, no pretence — just sharp observations, lived experience, and laugh-out-loud moments woven through real Scottish history and identity.
As a Scotsman living in America, this book truly resonated with me. Alastair Menzies’s voice is absolutely perfect for the narration. His personality, timing, and playful perspective on being a Scotsman navigating life in the U.S. elevate the entire experience. It feels like you’re being let in on something personal, familiar, and brilliantly observed.
This is a must-listen — funny, factual, and full of heart.
