Back in the day it was not seen as kosher for a young woman to be seen in public with a man who was not a family member. One exception was during a rainy day, when a man could offer to share his umbrella with a young maiden in the street if she hadn't one herself. It is a romantic image in media all over the world -- but it doesn't quite have the iconic "oomph" to Westerners that it does in Japan. The Japanese equivalent of the 'John [arrow through heart] Jane' love graffiti is drawing the pair's names standing under an umbrella. Compare Parasol of Prettiness, Old-Fashioned Rowboat Date.
