I’m gonna go ahead and blame schools for being so strictly anti-hat. Kids would get in trouble for wearing them. Head-coverings in general were forbidden unless they were religious in nature, so many kids never got a chance to get used to wearing them.

It made me feel strange seeing so many kids’ shows with characters that wear hats all the time. Hats were like a forbidden accessory in my childhood, and now even though I’m out in the “adult world,” they feel too weird to even try.

See you know what's funny? In my early school years, hats were mandatory. I got bought a dorky thing that got me made fun of, and I hated it.

I now have a complex where I feel weird about wearing hats.
