I hadn't realized scenting them was popular at one point.<br /><br />I feel for the Victorian gentlemen who had to learn the language of the gloves. I can imagine a fellow asking himself, "Now, which exposed thumb was it that meant my ladylove would welcome a kiss?"<br /><br />I've wondered at times how much disease was prevented in the past by the wearing of gloves. I've heard of cultures that don't shake hands because of the potential for sharing germs.Keli Gwynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13236868298400593688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4271375082145370896.post-84228909328672283282015-03-22T09:45:56.436-04:002015-03-22T09:45:56.436-04:00Chicken skin gloves?
