I like wearing a mask, I don't get told to smile anymore

Wait no

One guy did tell me to smile more when I had a mask on. I stared at him. Baffled. He seemed to realize he was being stupid and just fucking booked it.

Smiling doesn't just involve shaping your lips into an upwards arch. Usually your eyes are involved as well. This can be seen even when you're wearing a mask over your mouth.

Why did you explain this?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Because the comment implied that smiles couldn't be seen with a mask on.

Maybe not. Maybe it implied how fucking obnoxious it is to comment on other people's bodies without being asked.

True, didn't think of that.

I wasn't looking directly at him and had fogged eyeglasses (major drawback of masks, how dare they and glasses do that) so it was overall weird!
