more roach questions

tsuj510 · 07-13-2006, 08:20 PM

Oh yeah, I also changed my username (it was tsalaghisam). Why? Change is good.

OK, so I heard a guy say that once upon a time, only certain priviliged Men could wear roaches.

So.. Why do we wear roaches? And what is the history of their use? Where they specific to a certain part of the country? When did every Male dancer (practically) start using them and is there any protocol behind receiving/wearing one?

Trying to not step on toes...

Thanks again, guys!
