[La Lydia]

Hector Ramirez says: "If I'm wearing a hat and it's part of my look, I don't think I should have to take it off."

Rude, ignorant, raised in a barn. Part of his "look" indeed.

Hector Ramirez says: "If I'm wearing a hat and it's part of my look, I don't think I should have to take it off."

Perfectly reasonable, and I wasn't raised in a barn. Hats help with glare and shading, and some men who are balding prefer to wear them indoors sometimes.

After all, in Japan it's customary to remove one's shoes when entering a house. In America, not so. Why should hats be any different?

"But the 19-year-old Brown University student wears fedoras in class—with jeans—anyway. "If I'm wearing a hat and it's part of my look, I don't think I should have to take it off," he says."

Nothing shouts "I have premature male pattern baldness" as loudly as a 19 year old college student whining about having to take his hat off.
