Picnics and BBQ's are a different story.

I didnt wear a hat at the table when I was a kid either. Its just a matter of the level manners someone was brought up with.



It's an old English custom where hats are tipped, (or doffed) slightly lifting the hat off your forehead, when meeting a lady (remove your hat if you stop to talk), or to "say" to anyone, male or female – thank you, excuse me, hello, goodbye, you’re welcome or how do you do.

Tipping of the hat is a conventional gesture of politeness. This hat tipping custom has the same origin as military saluting, which came from the raising of medieval Knights face visors to show friendliness.

Hats are worn less now, but at the turn of the 20th century, all adults wore hats whenever they left the house. It was a matter of good personal hygiene, since hats were a protection from industrial dirt.

Hats are removed when inside, except for places that are akin to public streets, like lobbies, corridors, and crowded elevators (non-residential). In a public building (where there are no apartments) the elevator is considered a public area.

You may choose to remove your hat in a public elevator, but in the presence of a lady your hat must be removed.

A gentleman takes off his hat and holds it in his hand when a lady enters the elevator in any building that can be classified as a dwelling such as an apartment house or hotel. He puts it on again in the corridor.

It's therefore become a mark of respect to take them off during a meal, funerals, church service, when you greet someone in the street, or any other occasion when you want to signify that you respect the person. That's where the term, "I take my hat off to you" originated.




So based on this customs origin it would be possible to start a custom for women to have to doffer their blowse and bra when talking to a man ,so he can see if the goods are reall of just a decoy ...After all it would just be plain ,and simple good manners :wink:

We women come in all shapes and sizes. My sister 21, is almost perfect to me, Not an ounce of flab, nice height, nice smile, funny and really good at poker, Loves to snow board and is in school to be a dental hygenist. Probably not as big in that department as she would like. But Hell she shouldn't have it all. I think you can tell either there is enough body mass to have em or not. Sorry but the toothticks cant the cleavage unless it is surgically enhanced or like you said a decoy.

I am sure you thought that was a joke? But just in case you dont, sorry she is unavailable, that is really a good thing cuz if not then there would be something wrong with her. As cute as she is, she only likes dorky unattractive guys, weird huh. Kinda like in Wild Hogs How marissa tomea likes the nerdy guy. Same thing.


Plus Mackman seen your page you have tons of chics to pick from. You also have a friend with a very filthy mouth. His momma didn't wash his mouth out when he was little.
