Handkerchief Code

Smallest · Sep 22, 2011

So, I know handkerchief code doesn't really exist anymore and was different in different communities, but I thought it might be a fun idea to keep a thread going on people's preferences through colour, or combinations, all from a central list to avoid confusion.

Wikipedia is pretty great, I think.
And maybe combinations, like if you like fisting and biting, red houndstooth.

I don't know, thought it might be fun. It's a fun list, in any case.

So, I'll start. I'm going to skip the obvious like 69, but things I'd more likely to wear and probably imply simpler things-

Fuchsia, black, grey, and houndstooth would be the main ones, and maybe rust. Preferably a black and grey houndstooth (because stylin').

light blue, dark blue, grey, fuchsia, yellow, lavender, camouflage, plaid and hounds tooth

The hanky code is not entirely dead, I did go to gay bar in San Francisco where it was still practiced. I was rather puzzled about why everyone had different colored hankys in their pockets. thankfully the bartender told me the score I would have have hated to end up going home going home with someone wearing a dark red.

It would be kind of funny if you'd coincidentally had one in your pocket
