The British have a special hat culture. Men and women, old and young, are all crazy about hats. They wear hats for nearly all kinds of events.
Hats are especially important for British ladies. Until the 1950s ladies were seldom seen without a hat, because it was considered impolite for them to show their hair in public. As a part of a lady's dress, the hat is more of a symbol of her cultural and social status(地位).
Many social customs are tied to hats in Britain. For example, a man visiting a friend should take off his hat when he enters the room. When they meet someone on the street, women just nod, smile or say hello, but men usually take off their hats to show respect.
Why do British people have such a preference for hats? It is said that this is because of the changeable weather in Britain. The weather there changes very fast. It might be rainy one minute and sunny the next. The traditional British gentlemen always have a long black umbrella in their hands, but it is kind of troublesome after all. It is necessary for the British to have a hat to protect them from the rain and the sun. Moreover, the British winters are cold, so wearing a hat is one of the ways to keep warm.
