Boy howdy, you spend a day-and-a-half away from the site, and you miss lots of stuff.
Why should one wear the kilt? Why should one wear sneakers? Or corduroy trousers? Or flat hats? Or tattoos? Or jackets? Or boxers? Or tee shirts?
The question assumes that there is a should or shouldn't or some other imperative, I think. There is none, so the question is a bit like "How many angels can dance on the head of a pin?" or "What was God doing before he created the Earth?"
The only reasonable answer to the last question is: Creating Hell for people who ask that kind of question. 
There really is no requirement that anyone address the question: Why? There is no should. It is not imperative that this thread exist. But there have been numerous comments and threads about why some do wear kilts, here and elsewhere.
We all wear kilts because we choose to. The reasons for it are as varied as the number of respondents. Zardoz presents an excellent photo montage of a very reason to wear the kilt, or at least a pleasant benefit of doing so. Jock presents another quite logical reason. And so on.
I feel that you are attempting to take us to task for doing so, and I sense a bit of confrontation, no matter how you got here. Trolling is trolling, and some are quite expert at it. I would like to point out that this thread alone is on its 10th page, well beyond the what an inane questoin deserves! So congratualtions; you have been successful, and with only 9 total posts to date.
Zardoz, you gotta stop those pictures. My wife is already hiding out.
