I see the goths and punks wearing their clothes like that, and I am far too old for the look. Aside from the fact that I am much more conservative in my personal choices than most.

But, to each his own. I may be a kilt snob , but I am not the kilt police.
Well I would say that there is a big difference between a traditional kilt worn with an Arran sweater, walking boots and scrunched hose and the "kid's" styles you are referring to. the former is something that has been common for a long time.
