Is it weird for someone to walk with an umbrella up on hot and sunny days?

Master Age: 40

I would love to do this when walking during the summertime, but I never see many other people doing it, so I feel like it might look strange. What's your opinion on people who do this? Does it look weird?

  I've heard that, but I'm in the USA so I very rarely see this being done.

  I also know that a lot of my goth and emo gal pals yes parisols which is a fancy umbrella. If you walk around enough with an umbrella in your area maybe you will start a trend.☯️

My late great aunt one time wanted to give me an Umbrella when it was Summer out and the sunshine was pretty bad and heat would be beating down on me and she even offered to drive me home I just told her I was okay but she worried about us but I once saw this young girl use a Umbrella and the sun was shining bad

It's a bit strange but it totally makes sense because of the shade 🤔 Id say totally do it and be bold! Have fun with it!

it’s to save you from cooking in the sun

This person may have a skin or health condition that limits their exposure to heat and severe sun light.

Yes I think it's weird. Unless they have a disease that doesn't allow them to catch some sun, I always assume that they don't want to get "too dark".

It's not that common, but I don't think it's weird since you're literally trying to protect your skin from the sun.

Umbrellas are supposed to be for sun shade. Why do people think that it is a good idea to walk around waving a metal pole in the air when lightning is a distinct possibility?

No, either they are prepared for the next rain shower or there is a sword hidden in the handle.

I've seen it in other countries but not here in the u. s. it's actually a good idea. It'll keep the sun off of you.

It could be used to keep the sun off of you. Use a light color or pink umbrella.

Not here in the South where a lady might have a "parasol".

In many countries, it is now acceptable to walk with an open umbrella in many places.
