This Is How I Wear Them

This is how I wear my leather gloves (2017).

Why? This is how my father wore his leather gloves (1960), in fact these are actually my fathers’ leather gloves (they’re not from the 60’s though).

It is pure aesthetics, turned up at the end and tight around the knuckles.

Is it practical? No, not at all. Is it aesthetics and nothing else. It is not functional at all.

Do I shine my own shoes? Yes, I do shine my shoes/boots. Do I know how to tie a tie and iron my shirt and trousers?

Yes, I do know how to do that. Can I replace a lost button? Yes, I can do that as well. It is called sewing.

“Gentleman” is more than a mere word. Opposite argument is arguing about the basics of being “civilised”? That can not be a good thing in my World.

That being said. The whole “touching other people without their consent”? It just not progressing the way I want too. Honestly it can not be an actual problem? It is just stupid.

Shadow? Mm, that is my aluminium bat, it is resting in my hallway, always. Mine is black and little sisters’ is red.
