In Chinese usage, the cuckold (or wittol) is said to be “戴綠帽子” dài lǜmàozi, translated into English as ‘wearing the green hat’. The term is an allusion to the sumptuary laws used from the 13th to the 18th centuries that required males in households with prostitutes to wrap their heads in a green scarf (or later a hat).
It’s red hats in the USA
Some red-green colorblind Chinese people are having a good time right about not
In 2007 I went to a hockey game. They gave away a hat. It says “Lake Erie Monsters”.
Now, today the team has been renamed. It’s now the Cleveland Monsters.
Point is, it’s a red hat, with white text, and I haven’t been able to wear it since 2016 despite having nothing to do with trump or politics.
I just like hockey. And my hat is RUINED!!!
Its just like when I was a kid, and I was like “WOW! CHARLIE CHAPLIN!!! I’M GOING TO GROW A MUSTACHE JUST LIKE YOU WHEN I GROW UP!!!”
Yeah…about that…
I was just trying to be a better person when I joined the buddhist Kentucky Karma Klub and we got our matching tattoos, but FML, I guess.
I’ve been a 49ers fan for more than 30 years, thanks to these assholes now a white guy in a red hat is immediately suspect. I tend to wear the white one with red accents more often just so folks don’t get the wrong idea.
Ohhhhhhh, please nobody make blue or orange hats bad.
I mean, orange is ALREADY a bad hat to wear, but it’s not political. It’s just the Browns are…just so…so bad…for so very long.
But at least it’s not assosiated with trump!
Wouldn’t it make perfect sense to associate it with Trump? He’s orange, his diaper’s brown, he’s got the Browns color scheme and losing record down, he’s grungy but not in a good way (sorry Cleveland, never actually been, love you tho Drew Carey), nobody likes him, etc…?
