My family and I have not worn masks with exception to a private business asking us to do so, but we have noticed a trend. My wife went to a "drive by baby shower" where everyone was sitting outside wearing masks. She showed up without a mask and slowly people started taking theirs off ultimately leading to no one wearing a a mask.
We are just finishing a weekend in NYC visiting family, not wearing masks outside, and my family who lives here and started the weekend wearing them outside ended the weekend without wearing them (which the admitted the normally do). My nephew (11 y/o) straight up asked me "why aren't you wearing your mask?". I simply said "I'm not afraid to be outside or around others without one".
Once people realize you and others aren't afraid, gives them strength and confidence to follow. I think it's a good step forward.
Hello fellow masshole.???
I have made it my lifes goal to go through this nonsense not covering my face once. And to date,i have not covered my face once!
I only go to stores that know me. I spend a lot of money between the places i do business with.they dont want to lose it.
If i need something from the bigger stores my gf puts tge diaper on cuz shes one of the "i have no choice if i want to eat" people. She hates it. I do my best to get what we need from the friendly stores so she dont have to wear it.
