Wearing a face mask is a small inconvenience that doesn't make you anything close to a muslim woman. Being responsible isn't gay, and face masks do work. To believe they don't work, is to believe the lies they told early only so there wouldn't be a mask shortage.
You're free to wear a mask if you want to just like you're free to stay home if you're afraid of a virus. The problem is when you're forced to do those things.
I'm personally not afraid, its just reality with the virus, and I use my judgment when the mask is necessary (ie not on sidewalks, outdoors, curbside pickup, etc). I understand it's pointless in some instances, such as having to wear it when walking to a restaurant table, when not having to at the table.
That said to me it's not much different than littering - a small inconvenience, but it's responsible, and worthwhile to not litter. I'm just really sick of the projection that only weak, sheepish people wear masks - I've never seen anyone too strong, or intelligent to wear a mask.
Politicizing the mask into [ALWAYS] or [NEVER] is just dumb, like everything, people need to see some middle ground
