I think hands automatically seem to search out pockets.
I agree with you.
You know, etiquette guides starting in the 18th and 19th centuries tried to warn men that it was in fact rude to strut about with their hands in their trouser pockets.
Trouser pockets locate to lust.
You know, that's the reason that all those etiquette guides say, take your hands out of your pockets.
They're placed in and around the erogenous zones, according to the poet Harold Nemiroff.
However, it's always also been really attractive.
And it starts with courtiers around the late 17th, early 18th century.
And they try to break the rules.
And in doing so, they looked really fashionably nonchalant.
So all sorts of men wanted to look that way, too.
And I think the interesting thing is that fashion delights in mocking good manners.
And so holding your hands in pockets sort of reveals this conflict between fashion and good manners.
It's comfortable, but it's also really svelte and cool to kind of gesture with your hands in your pockets.
Well, exactly.
It's nice and cozy.
I mean, I think once Victorian manners really declined by the end of the 19th century, people less and less call out that gesture as rude.
I agree with you.
That's right.
And I think there's also codes in the military.
