    is your Covid face-mask "girly"?

    hello,
    Some of us are enjoying wearing Covid face coverings because it hides our lipstick.
    I was wondering how many of us are choosing feminine masks rather than bland medical type masks?
    My wife made us face masks from old dress material and we share them.
    Occasionally strangers have commented "nice mask" (the paisley patterned one seems to be most popular!) .
    Stay healthy!
    luv J

    My SO and I wear the same brand of mask. Just take one from the generic pack of 10. The mask has encouraged me to wear make up and lipstick more regularly when out.

    My wife has made masks for our entire family, friends and veterans. All her masks are made with tightly woven quilting fabric (hold up to light and no light passes through) with a layer of filtering material sandwiches in between. My personal favorite is a mask with U S Army logos. She has made masks for Marines, Army, Navy and Coast Guard. Locally, there was a shortage of Air Force logo quilting material. She has made several hundred for local veterans groups that were a special order. Also, special order for various animals; usually dogs and cats. Seasonal masks for holidays; Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Patriotic (July 4th, Flag Day, etc). Local sports teams; Mariners, Seahawks, Yankees (not local, but, hey that's where I'm from). All made and distributed for no charge to all corners of the USA. When she started mask making she consulted other mask makers for the proper construction and style; hence, the triple layer.

    There was absolutely no reason not to wear a mask. As to wearing a mask when Covid is over,; consider the fact the seasonal flu hospitalizations are down 98%. Many countries is Asian wear masks during the flu season. I see that in my local area with elderly Korean immigrants who always wear masks during the flu season.

    In boy mode I have one mask - completely utilitarian and boring. However, Julie has at least a dozen masks, and its always a question about which mask will match the outfit.

    I have a couple of girly masks, any mask hides a lot of sins for me.

    I can even skip shaving if necessary. :-)

    At work I have to wear company masks. Otherwise, I have a couple I made out of a green bandana for going to the store and such. For Geena time I have the mask with the lips painted on. I'm personally dubious of the effectiveness of a mask, but I wear them whenever asked as a matter of decency.

    U can't keep doing the same things over and over and expect to enjoy life to the max. When u try new things, even if they r out of your comfort zone, u may experience new excitement and growth that u never expected.

    Challenge yourself and pursue your passions! When your life clock runs out, you'll have few or NO REGRETS!

    I’ve made a couple to go with my drag outfits, but I’ve got basic ones for every day wear.

    Nothing special that I use. I have two or three that don't lean either way. I am just ready to quit wearing these things.

    I have a bright pink one somewhere, just can't find it. I miss it so much.
    I'm a man. I like being a man. I also love wearing women's clothing. It's my way to show honor, respect and solidarity with them.

    I think these masks are going to be around for a long time, and I refuse to go out looking like a dental assistant, so yeah.

    I've been here and there in Asia where this has been the norm for a while, and it's just another fashion accessory there.

    @ Sherry, how about these? Made 'em myself!

    I've wound up with a collection of masks in various styles, colors and fabrics. I match them to my outfit. My favorites are one with a floral pattern on a black field and another with a pattern of little bicycles (it has a matching purse).

    I have about a dozen pastel colored non-medical looking masks that the wife bought for us.
    Nothing ultra femme....but how feminine can you be? ...in a mask.

    Hi, I'm Steffi and I'm a crossdresser... And I accept and celebrate both sides of me. Or, maybe I'm gender fluid.

    Calling bigotry an "opinion" is like calling arsenic a "flavor".

    My wife made masks for us. She used a flowered print for me to use when I go out dressed (at my request).
