A Gentleman & His Cap
A gentleman will probably own a stack of baseball caps, which he wears after work, on the weekends, or on casual days at the office. He may feel that a beloved baseball cap is almost a part of his body but he should never forget that it is still a hat and that common courtesy demands it be treated as such. A gentleman does not wear his cap inside most public buildings, especially houses of worship. Traditionally, a gentleman would remove his hat if he were greeting a woman or being introduced to a new acquaintance of either sex. If a gentleman wears a hat to cover up an unwashed mass of hair or to disguise a balding head, he need not remove it. He gives tug to his cap brim out of respect for the other person, and as a wistful acknowledgement of courtesy long past.
Love Life. Live Fresh.
