I mean I would say its a heck of a lot easier. Having a condom all day would be kinda hard to deal with but wearing a mask is essentially the same as wearing a hat.
Yeah it does not have that much of a natural feel to me but its never been much of an imposition. The most difficult thing is I have glasses and live in a place that has winters so like my glasses can get fogged although my scarf does that to. I actually have an idea for next year on that. You know though it is kinda wierd though because now I kinda relate unmasked as kinda private and intimate. Like it feels a bit lewd to be walking around without one. Maybe like walking around without a shirt as a guy. So maybe more impolite than lewd.
For my part, I no longer have to figure out what face I should wear when around people. As someone with autism, adjusting to humanity can be troubling.
its kinda nice to because you see someone else with one and you give a little nod or such. I sorta miss hanging in a subculture and in a way this provides that nice little thing.
Considering how well preventable STI’s still get around, I’d say that sentiment is a little too common. That or a lot of people are hot garbage at risk assessment.
People are, in fact, hot garbage at risk assessment. See, for example, how many people refused to mask/vax during the height of the pandemic, and the concurrent death rates…
WEARING A MASK IS LIKE WEARING A CONDOM.
Would you risk a permanent disease for the sake of “ehh I dont like how it feels”?
It’s actually only a good analogy if you have an STI you’re preventing giving to others.
Masks keep YOU from spreading what you have unless it’s KN-95 or better iirc.
I like you.

anti-vaxxers, conservatives likely dont wear condoms too, hence they have higher pregnancy and STDS.
Hard to find one small enough
“I can only breathe with a mask on my face when im hiding my identity to beat up on people of color!!! Any other time though, fuck off!!!”
Forget the STI how is 18 years of child support gonna feel?
It’s more like wearing a condom so you don’t spread your STI.

A mask is like socks and underwear for me: I feel weird if I don’t have it on, especially when wandering about.

I think it’s people believing it won’t happen to them. There is risk, but I will be an exception.
I happen to know when my (now ex-) wife cheated on me, she raw dogged him… Never would have expected that from her, she’s such a germophobe otherwise…
