I grew up in a small town in south Texas and the men were still told to take their hats off at the table. It wasn't "uppity", it was just good manners to remove them. My husband was raised in a small western Pennsylvania steel mill town and they had the same rules......no hats at the table whether it was breakfast, lunch or dinner. I am amazed at how many men wear their hats indoors and in restaurants, as if they are not removable.
