"Lose your headgear"

[HovaFlow]

If the bad stuff of a monster says "lose your headgear" does it have to be the headgear you have equipped or can it be any headgear in play (sideways)?

[Andrew Hackard]

Quoting from the Munchkin FAQ:

Q. If I draw a Curse that says "Lose Your Armor," and I have an Armor card sideways, can I lose that one to satisfy the Curse?
A. It depends on the exact wording of the Curse. If the Curse says "Lose the Armor You Are Wearing," it must be Armor that you are using (and therefore gaining the benefits of). If it is "Lose One Armor," you would lose any single Armor card you had in play. And if it is just "Lose Your Armor," discard everything you have in play that is Armor. (As mentioned below, Cheated Armor is still Armor!)
