Points of view- caps

When I was little there was a lady in church who always wore hats with a very wide brim. It was nice to hide behind her if you didn’t want to be seen.

I never understood why men were supposed to remove their hats in church but women were required to cover their heads.
To answer the original question: the only time I'm bothered by anyone wearing a hat indoors is if they're blocking my view in the cinema/theatre.

I must admit that I find it disrespectful when I see men wearing hats indoors, particularly in restaurants. It is even more annoying when it is an older man who, when younger, would have rarely, if ever, seen a man keeping his hat on in those circumstances.

I have a vision of my father wearing a trilby always when out but, automatically removing it as he went through a door. He raised it to a funeral cortège and, Calendar Girl and Cabbie021*, always tipped it to a lady.

Oh yes, makes me feel specially too, but I can’t remember when anyone last doffed their hat to me, or even wore a traditional hat.

Well, it always was accepted practice for men to remove their hats indoors. Nowadays not so.
I went to a funeral and one youngish man kept his hat on throughout the service, it was a deerstalker type of hat, not a baseball cap.
I know it makes me old fashioned, but I think a funeral in church is definitely one place where the hat should be removed.
I love it if a hat-wearing male doffs his hat to me. Makes me feel special.
