Oh, yeah! Don't know about now, but back in the early to mid-eighties, the kerchief in the back pocket to indicate role and "scene" was huge. I don't remember all of them, but here were some I do recall:

Yellow: golden showers

Brown: scat

Black: Heavy BDSM

Light Blue: wants or gives head (depends on pocket worn in)

Navy Blue: Topr or bottom

Red: Fist fucking

Purple: into piercing as a sexual activity.

Orange: In left pocket=looking to score; right pocket=just cruising.

Kelly Green: whore or john.

Hunter Green: Daddy or seeking daddy.

Olive drab: military or into military.

Beige: into rimming or being rimmed.


And strangely enough, the corner of a plastic baggie to indicated either dealer or someone looking to score drugs.

I know there are lots more, but that's all I can remember.

Hmmm, wow, how interesting, and well done for remembering all those colours Kallie!

Just one question though - was there anywhere in particular one was supposed to carry the hankerchiefs?? i.e. only at a BDSM related event or just generally in day to to day life?? i only ask because i've got terrible visions of some poor hapless magician with one of those long multi-coloured hankies being accosted by every sexual deviant in a 10 mile radius.....!!!!

i am being silly, of course, but out of interest, when WERE they supposed to be carried?
