quote:fair enough. How did you get to that point?
there apart of your apparel you feel naked without? A watch, piece of jewelry, etc. that you almost always wear?
that's me and my hat.. I just feel more comfortable with it.
And like I said you can't fit everyone in the same box or couple boxes, but I feel pretty confident that there is a solid constituency of hat wearers that wear it out of some embarrassment or lack of embracing their looks, which a lot is due to them going thin up top. Some embrace it and so the right thing and just shave the shite. That is what I would do, but they embrace being bald and still rock the hat 80% of the time they are awake. More power to them or anyone.... Guess I'm just saying that 'all the time' wearers, That many people look at them and think you are hiding either your thinning hair or your face.

I started wearing one around 10 or so regularly. My cousins wore one and got me to start... after that I always put it on after school etc. My hair was thin (not as in I didn't have a lot, but as in thin and needed hair spray or gel to make it stay in place and not look like shite
). So it was easier to slap on a hat... Overtime I guess i just grew to be more comfortable wearing it. This post was edited on 9/11/16 at 11:52 pm

Probably because the point of a hat is to protect your head from elements so people probably don't view it as appropriate. I for one think that people wear them entirely too much in places that are more formal than a ball cap.
I have pretty much always worn hats whenever it was ok to since I was 5 years old because I have thick nappy hair and I have always felt like "styling" it with gel or spray is so gay. I would never wear one when it isn't appropriate and I still to this day hate having to put gel shite in my hair but I still usually take my hat off inside if there are people I don't know around and I would never wear one to a nice place. I always wear a hat inside of my office because those damn overhead lights kill my eyes and a bill blocking them helps so much.

I asked my boss (who wears shorts, t's, and loafers with socks to work everyday) about wearing my hat. He said however you feel comfortable. And that the only issue he's been around was a dude wearing a fury tail to work. Engineers can be quite strange. Lol

Florescent lighting hurts my eyes. I'll wear my hat inside and give zero fricks about it.

Yup

Hats were often worn for protection from the sun and industrial activities. Men generally "tipped" their hats, or temporarily removed them, in the presence of women as a sign of good manners and respect. This developed into removing one's hat when indoors as a sign of respect and trust. There were also valid safety reasons for wearing a hat most of the time when outdoors. While wearing hats often is not as common now, removing one's hat inside a home or building is still considered good etiquette.

Most people I know that wear hats most of the time and especially indoors have some type of baldness, receding hairline, or fuglee hair to hide.
This poster has hair and very seldom wears a hat. When I do, I observe the time honored tradition of removing a hat when indoors.

And if you're getting your jimmies rustled over someone wearing a hat inside, then you should be taking some Preparation H for that serious case of butthurt.
It's not about getting jimmies rustled. It's about knowing who has class and who doesn't. I'm sorry you want to wear your flatbill inside at Buffalo Wild Wings with your napkin and elbows both resting on the table while you chew with your mouth open, but there are still several of us who were raised with etiquette.

I understand certain circumstances and situations but mostly its an antiquated notion.
