~Regency Wednesday~ Against the grain

It's time for another Regency Wednesday and having missed the last two, I really need to post something, don't I? That said, here's a slang definition for you lovely creatures!

This one goes along with the last slang definition I posted...

AGAINST THE GRAIN.
Unwilling. It went much against the grain with him, i.e. it was much against his inclination, or against his pluck.
