I still feel weird when wearing a mask myself or when I see somebody with one. Before the Covid situation somebody with a mask would feel threatening. I think we should have a big public campaign promoting mask wearing and make sure public leaders set an example by wearing one.
- derekp7 6y agoWhat about sunglasses? Why doesn't that feel threatening when you see someone slip on a pair of sunglasses, and a hat? After all sunglasses are a form of a mask for the upper part of the face.
- spaetzleesser 6y agoWearing sunglasses is often viewed as impolite too. I am not arguing against masks I am just saying that there are some cultural obstacles that make people uncomfortable wearing them. It would take some leadership to get around those.
