Laws concerning toplesness also vary across the US. It's legal in many places for women to go topless, yet rarely does anybody actually do so. My point here is that laws are not actually the reason most people wear clothing; their personal preferences are the reason. Where clothing laws don't exist or aren't enforced, virtually everybody still wears clothes.
(Also, I think this all has very little to do with covid-19.)
- mcphage 6y agoIt’s pretty simple: lots of people have problems with having to wear a mask, but remarkably few have problems with being forced to wear clothes. And you’re right, people will generally do it, even without being forced. So whatever peoples’ aversion to wearing masks is, it’s nothing to do with being forced to wear an additional article of clothing.
