Schools enforce dress codes all the time. No mini skirts, no tank tops, no sandals, no hats, etc. There’s zero reason why they couldn’t make masks mandatory.

- escardin 6y agoI don't get this in general? Is it not policy that you need to wear a shirt and shoes while in a commercial building? Do you not have signs on your stores that say 'No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service'? How are we as a society unable to reconcile the need to wear a shirt in store with the need to wear a mask? I realize that as a society we are dumb panicky animals that are afraid of any change, but this is ridiculous!
