There is all this talk in violence on aircraft and airports, is the psychological effect of not being a face attached to a person ever considered?
If all you see is a mask and eyes, isn’t that a stereotypical criminal? |

Personally I think the masks create a psychological barrier to communication and human empathy. If nothing else it's a PITA to talk to someone so I'm less likely to engage in discretionary conversation with strangers. Visual cues are important in our communication.

It is also why in some countries women cover much of their faces. In addition to religious direction, it makes it harder for a man to communicate with a woman, and harder to appreciate some of her physical features. A man cannot see a woman smile at him. This all creates a relationship barrier. It allows the woman to pass through crowds more anonymously. |
Mask schmask
I’m over the mask. Do whatever YOU want. My company requires compliance, which is fine. I wear one when I’m scheduled to fly, when the company requires it. My seat is bleeding from every orifice for bodies to fill trips. When the mask mandate is repealed, I might pick one up. Not before. Enjoy!
