Are kilts gothic (or anti-gothic)

[MacHummel]

Well in my youth I was into the goth/ punk thing , I was a huge fan of BauHaus, Sisters of Mercy, Birthday Party etc, I was always wanting to wear something that was different i wanted a kilt back then, but didn't have the finances or the knowledge, the kilt itself is a great symbol of going against the grain, I went and saw Nine Inch Nails a couple of years ago and wore my black kilt and Docs I got many compliments, when I wear kilts to the school I work at same thing the newer generation of goth types also ask about them ,I see more people accepting the kilt as part of regular wardrobe . So is the kilt another tool of gathering a community of people together, regardless of age,gender, social group, etc. I think we may have stubbled onto something. Is there anything the kilt can"t do.

The goth and punk scene are entirely different. Especially if we're talking about Paddy Rock. I'm huge into celtic punk/rock, and I feel no way connected to goths...unless, of course, if they happen to be Gordons...
