What kind of clothing did the Navajo Indians wear?

The early Anasazi clothed themselves in fur or turkey-feather robes, string aprons, loincloths and roundtoed, plant-fiber sandals. They wore ornaments made out of shells, bone, or stone. Anasazi men wore no clothing in hot weather, but did wear a belt of woven hair and grasses from which they hung their tools and other necessities. The women wore a type of breech cloth with a waistband woven of hair. From this waistband hung a long and narrow "apron" which was made of a wide border of highly decorated fingerweaving which ended in hundreds of strands of loose yucca fiber. In cold weather, "wrap-arounds" or "robes" were used by everyone, and were made of buckskin or turkey feathers. Everyone also wore sandals woven of yucca and hemp. The Anasazi loved jewelry and feathers of all types and they often incorporated them into the decoration of their clothing.


How do you put on a protective cup?

Answer1. Always wear a cup in a cup-jockstrap, cup-brief, or cup-sliding short that's designed to hold a cup. The jockstrap, brief or sliding-short will have a pouch to house the cup. There will be elastic, metal snaps or a Velcro closure to keep the cup in place in the pouch.2. A cup (inside a cup-jockstrap, cup-brief, or cup-sliding short)should be worn without anything underneath (don't wear underwear underneath). This maximizes their protectiveness by completely encasing the male genitals and allowing the genitals to be held tightly against the body. However, if you want to wear something underneath, only a thin pair of nylon/spandex briefs should be worn. EXAMPLE: Under Armor Compression Shorts.3. For a cup to work properly, it must fit tightly and firmly against the body. A loose fitting cup will allow the impact of a blow or hit to slam the cup into the testicles, causing pain and possible injury. If your cup-jockstrap or cup-brief does not hold your cup firmly and tightly against your body you can wear a pair of tight fitting nylon/spandex athletic briefs over them.4. Put on the CupStep into cup-jockstrap and pull elasticized leg straps up around legs, and the waist-strap firmly around waist with the hard cup at the front of your body and over your genitals.Insert testicles into bottom and narrower end of cup.With triangular-shaped cup, lift penis up and lay across inside top of cup. With banana-shaped cup, allow penis to hang down.The cup should obscure genitalia.5. Remove when finished and clean. Jockstrap can be washed in machine but should be air-dried to not damage elastic. Cup should be washed by hand with warm water and soap and never in machine.Generally, there are two different styles of cups, the first being the "traditional," older style of cup. It's shaped like a "V" and some brands of this design have part of their capacity at the bottom to encapsulate the testicles to protect them. It's also somewhat flat on the side that fits against the body, although some brands contour somewhat to the body and provide room for encapsulating the penis to support and protect it as well. The other style of cup--commonly referred to as a "banana cup" because it's curved like a "banana" to contour the body--is also narrower at the bottom, and its capacity is intended to encapsulate a man's genitals in their natural "hanging down" mode.The "traditional" cup would appeal most to men who prefer their penis to be held upward and laid across/inside the wide top part of the "V" shaped cup. Conversely, the "banana cup" is designed so that the penis dangles downward, which is more comfortable for some men. Not all "traditional" cups have enough capacity for some men. It is important when selecting a cup to buy one that has sufficient capacity and adequate rubber or foam padding on its edges. All cups, both the "traditional" and the "banana" cup, must fit firmly and tightly against the body to work properly. Some of the cup-jockstraps, cup-briefs, or cup-shorts that come with cups do not hold the cup firmly and tightly against the body. If a cup fits loose, an impact to the cup will just slam the cup into the testicles, resulting in almost as much pain and injury as if the man wasn't even wearing a cup. For a cup to work properly, it must be able to transfer the energy of a blow or impact through the cup and into the rubber or foam padding and against the body but not against the penis or testicles. Tight fitting nylon/spandex athletic briefs can be worn over a cup-jockstrap to hold it firmly and tightly against the body.Which of the two styles of cups is most comfortable for a man to wear depends on his unique body shape and on the brand of cup he wears -- not all "traditional" cups and not all "banana" cups are the same. Some men feel that the banana cup is much more comfortable than the traditional cup since not all traditional shaped cups conform properly to the body. However, having said this, it should also be stated that some of the traditional shaped cups are very comfortable to wear and are very good protectors. Make sure to buy a cup that will hold all of you. If not, the cup can tend to float over the genitals, sometimes pinching them on impact and not providing the intended protection.The new "Nutty Buddy" cup, tries to make the best of both worlds by fully encompassing the genitals while allowing the penis to point up yet still contouring to the body. The cup is available in different sizes so fitting is not a problem. When worn under tight fitting nylon/spandex sports briefs, the Nutty Buddy reveals the natural outline of the male, so men do not need to feel embarrassed in the locker room because they are wearing a cup-protector.There are many different types of cups that are intended for their specific sport application. Hockey goalies (ice or roller), boxers, soccer and baseball players should wear a cup designed for their sport. However, remember that years of sales promotion can not provide your needed protection! Have you even seen a boxer go down because of a "low blow"? That's because he was not wearing a tight fitting Nutty Buddy! Loose cups result in pain! Big leather "no-foul" protectors don't protect adequately if they don't fit tight!A man should never feel embarrassed in the locker room because he is putting a cup-protector on, even if some of the other athletes are not putting one on. He should always feel proud that he knows he should protect his genitals from injury when he is playing sports.As with any protective gear, you can still get hurt! But remember, if your cup is damaged, just think what might have happened if you didn't have a cup on at all!Men should consider shaving or trimming their pubic hair on the scrotum and around the base of the penis before wearing a cup. This ensures the cup does not pull on the hairs and cause unexpected pain.Once again, remember to always wear your cup "tight-fitting" to your genitals. If a cup fits loose, an impact to the cup will just slam the cup into the testicles, resulting in almost as much pain and injury as if the man wasn't even wearing a cup.Other Important InformationA goalie cup features extra padding around the cup holder, and also on the front side of the waistband. Goalies facing fast and hard slap-shots should double-cup. Either wear a banana cup underneath the goalie cup or purchase a goalie cup that features a "double cup."Boxers wear a cup that have a wide, padded waistband all the way around, to protect the kidneys. They are worn over or under shorts. However, better protection will be delivered to the groin wearing the cup under the shorts. Some manufacturers of "no-foul" boxing cups are now realizing that their boxing cup-protector must fit real tight against the body to provide 100% protection. A boxer should never go down in pain because his "no-foul" cup-protector didn't protect him adequately. Currently, it is likely that the big leather no-foul protectors are being redesinged to provide for a very tight fitting cup-protector which will completely eliminate the impact of a "low blow" to a boxer.Some soccer and basketball players prefer to wear a "soft" cup, that is made of a pliable plastic. It's not as protective as a hard cup, but allows for some protection applicable to less-risk sporting games. However, if you feel you need more protection when playing these sports then you will want to wear a hard cup.


Who wears a sari?

Different ways of wearing a Sari :Nivi styleThis style of sari draping is common to the state of Andhra Pradesh. It is also the most popular style of sari draping. In this style of sari draping, one end of the sari is neatly tucked into the band of the petticoat on the waist. After wrapping the sari cloth around the waist once more, the sari is neatly folded into pleats, which are then tucked into the waistband of the petticoat just below the navel. Then after wrapping it around the body one more time, the other decorative end of the sari also called the "pallu" comes diagonally in front of the torso and draped over the left shoulder.STEP 11. A waist - to - floor length petticoat tied tightly at the waist by a drawstring. 2. A tight fitting blouse that ends just below the bust.STEP 2After step one you take the sari and tuck the plain end of the sari into the petticoat for one complete turn from right to left. Make sure that the lower end of the sari touches the floor. STEP 3Beginning from the tucked-in end start making pleats in the sari, about 5 inches deep. STEP 4Make about 7 to 10 pleats and hold them up together so that they fall straight and even. STEP 5Tuck the pleats into the waist slightly to the left of the navel, and make sure that they are turned towards the left. After this you take the sari and tuck the plain end of the sari into the petticoat for one complete turn from right to left. Make sure that the lower end of the sari touches the floor.STEP 6The end portion thus draped is the pallu, and can be prevented from slipping off by fixing it at the shoulder to the blouse with a small safety pin. You are now draped in a saree . Now stand before the mirror and get enchanted by the grace you exude.Different StylesHow to Drape SariGujrati / North Indian Style : This style of sari draping is very similar to the Nivi style with the only difference being that in this style, the "Pallu" or the decorative end of the sari is draped over the right shoulder rather than the left shoulder. Also, in this style the pallu is draped from back to front and not like the Nivi in which the pallu is draped front to back. Maharashtrian Style :This style of sari draping is very similar to the way the Maharashtrian dhoti is worn. This style of sari draping is common among the Brahmin women especially in Maharashtra, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu. This sari is draped in a way that the center of the sari is neatly placed at the back of the waist and the ends of the sari are tied securely in the front, and then the two ends are wrapped around the legs. The decorative ends are then draped over the shoulder and the upper body or torso.Dravidian Style : This sari draping style is common in the state of Tamil Nadu. The archetypical Dravidian sari is the "veshti-mundanai", which is draped in two parts: The veshti covers the lower body, while the mundanai, or mundu, is an add-on to the veshti. The draping of the veshti is fairly simple as it draped like a towel around the waist and is usually 4 yards in length. This is then folded in half lengthwise. The mundunai is usually one yard in width and two yards in length. Some of these saris are distinctly characterized by a pleated rosette also called pinkosu at the waist.Madisaara Style : This sari draping style is common among the Brahmin ladies of Tamil Nadu and Kerala. This style of sari is worn on festive occasions or ceremonies and since the style of draping this sari is different as compared to other styles; nine-yard sari is required to wear this style. The Madisar sari is draped in the following way: The sari is neatly wrapped around the waist, with the one end of sari on the right side, while the rest of the saree on the left. A knot is tied at the left waist firmly. The rest of the sari is gathered near the waist. Then a bit of the sari is neatly tucked into the right side of the waist. The end of the sari is then pleated into folds and tucked into the waist. The rest of the saris then folded into 4 to 5 fold, with each fold measuring approximately three fourth of the hand. The pleated sari is then brought at the back with the folded saree between the legs. After neatly gathering the folds, they neatly tucked at the back side of waist. The sari is then gathered to the right side in front and draped over the left shoulder. The end or pallu of the sari is then gathered around the waist and neatly tucked into the left side of the waist.Kodagu Style : This sari draping style is typical to ladies from the Kodagu district of Karnataka. This sari draping differs from other styles because in this the folded pleats of the sari are formed at the back instead of the usual front side. The pallu or decorative end of the sari is carefully draped from the back to front over the right shoulder. This is secured by a pin to the sari to keep it in place.Gond Style : This sari draping style is common in central parts of India. In this style, before arranging to drape the sari over the body, the sari is first draped over the left shoulder.Mundum Neryathum Style : This sari draping style is common in the state of Kerala. This is essentially two-piece sari attire, in which the mundu forms the lower garment while the neriyathu forms the upper garment. This sari can be draped either in the customary style in which the neriyathu is tucked inside the blouse or the more modern style in which the neriyathu comes over the left shoulder.For illustrations :http://www.daania.com/custom/how-to-wear-saree.jpghttp://www.sweetyzone.com
