Quakers, or the Religious Society of Friends, refused to bow or remove their hats as a sign of equality and respect for all individuals, rejecting hierarchical social structures. They believed that everyone is equal in the eyes of God, and such gestures of deference were seen as contrary to their principles of egalitarianism. This practice was part of their broader commitment to pacifism and simplicity in worship and daily life.
