Just be happy to have a roof over your head, food in your belly and clothes of any color on your back. Many people in world don’t.

Never heard of that until I was an adult, so obviously my parents were past that concern... had they even known about it too. I remember a comedy sketch on that non-wearing of white, not sure if it was a commercial or what, where some guy brought that up. I can picture his voice; sounded like that dude from the "Airplane!" comedy who was making jokes in the tower.... and someone else laughing when he said it. But yeah, it became kind of a joke several years back.

The commercial you are thinking about is still on tv.

That would be “dumbest” thread. But trust me, even as dumb as this one may seem, it doesn’t even make it into the top 10 of the dumbest threads I’ve seen here.

I grew up down here in Florida - have never heard this “rule”. The only dress code we were told was “don’t wear flip-flops to the funeral home”. I think even that rule is passé. Feel free to wear white all year!

Default Sallie is it!

If you ask me, Sallie is one of the few that knows how to look good for any occasion!

I just ask myself, "what would Jesus wear?". Then I put on t-shirt and shorts. 😎

Even the fashion industry threw this rule out years ago, thank goodness! Don't be a fashion slave. Besides, in Florida white is a staple in our wardrobe.

That’s old school thinking. Any color any season goes these days. Who really cares anyway. Silly to be bound by what others think you can or can not wear. Dress as you please.

With everything that is going on in the world and this country, why the heck would anyone care?

The only person who gets a vote on what I wear is my wife and I outvote her.

PS: She never has given me a vote on what she wears
