Husband

Father

Cat Grandpa

I take my hat off in a restaurant, or I’ll leave it in the car.

I can’t STAND seeing a man with a bun! Traitors!😡

[telescope115]

He’s not worthy to wear that hat!

Not just looking good people then understood long term in the sun played hell on the skin long term time sunning ages the face is time.

Note older women who were sun bunnies their faces looks like a road map men too.

People who had skin cancer even ware long sleeve shirts in the summer per doctors orders.

Hats have changed as have styles. Hats still have a purpose, whether blocking the sun or protecting your head from rain etc.

We have seriously gone from being formal and dressy to more slovenly and unkempt as a culture. I blame California.

Businesses have shed ties years ago, I recall being in a Goldman Sachs office 20 years ago and the senior staff were all wearing polo/golf shirts.

Look around today, young men and girls are on the lululemon craze, skin tight leggings for gals, shorts and tees for men.

Yes! Those are so cool! And swoon worthy! You’ll need to get a stick to beat the ladies off.

Didn’t Gregory Peck wear one in To Kill a Mockingbird?

[Lurker]

I believe he did. I just ordered a selection of feathers for it, too.

I do need a feather in my hat. LOL

Best,

Do bald men wear hats because they are bald, or do hats MAKE men bald?

[Disambiguator]

They were Toobinesque.

[Songcraft]

You're right.
