That's right. However, this wasn't a sign of true love, it was a bit more vulgar than that. Again, in the Victorian period, men would cut off the pubic hair of their conquests and display them on accessories such as hats in order to brag about their sexual endeavours through the art of fashion. So basically, men wore pubes on their hats to boost their ego. Imagine being intimate with someone and then having them ask you if they can cut off some of your pubes? Either way the women would probably be offended because the man would either ask to trim a bit of your pubic hair to wear (which is weird), or they wouldn't ask you to take some home to show off; in which case you would feel neglected and you really wanted to be a conquest. Life must have been hard as a Victorian.
