This topic grows more interesting. It seems that
aside from those of us on this forum who entertain
the style, there is very little knowledge of "goth."
This doesn't surprise me. The reason for my curiosity
is that the goths around here are intensely private.
This may be the only group I haven't been accepted
into since I graduated from high school. I don't find
any distress in this, but it does make me want to
understand what makes them tick.

I kind of expected that my wearing a kilt may put them
more at ease in my presence, but the rest of my
appearance probably throws up red flags before them.
(Unless as I originally postulated that kilts may be
anti-goth. Since this idea seems incorrect, I suppose
they see me as some goofy character in left field.)
They really are a puzzle to me.
