I know its just a passing phase. 
The problem with goths, and punks for that matter, is they all end up looking the same. It's the packaged rebellion for youth. I have friends in punk/metal bands, guys that have record contracts, that have corporate jobs in the day time, but when they go out dressed like rock stars they joke about being 'geared up'. They don't buy into the whole fashion.
I guess my point is, guys who honestly believe in wearing kilts, and do so because they like to, are the true rebels of fashion. Whether we want to admit it or not, we are outside of the mainsteam, which is fine with me.
Of course, I use to show up at clubs like the 'Double Door' (its like CBGBs in NYC but in Chicago) wearing a suit type outfit. It was funny to see the punk wannabe kids enunciate their dislike for me or my cloths (the same guys who alway bitched about being accepted) when the old school guys, the guys who were playing the show were fine with it. It was my own personal a@@hole detector. They recognized me because I wore something different from the run of the mill crowd.
