Is it because people are still wearing masks?
A new study from South Korea’s Seoul National University has found that ugly people are more likely to continue wearing COVID masks in the post-Covid era.
Outkick reported:
Specifically, young and middle-aged Americans who consider themselves attractive “believe that wearing a mask prevents opportunities to make a favorable impression on others.”

The report mentions “Overall, we find that self-perceived attractiveness through belief in mask attractiveness has significant effects on mask wearing intention following the Covid-19 pandemic.”
“Our findings suggest that mask wearing during the Covid-19 pandemic may shift from a self-protection measure to a self-presentation strategy in the post-pandemic era.”
In a third study, the most striking results came, looking at 442 people.
The Daily Mail reported:
Researchers at Seoul National University in South Korea wanted to see if self-perceived attractiveness played a role in people’s mask-wearing intentions. They conducted three experiments on Americans recruited from Amazon Mechanical Turk, a crowdsourcing website for businesses.
…
Three of the studies involved 442 people, half of whom were told they were going to walk the dog and the other half were told they were going to a job interview.
They were asked: ‘In this situation, do you think others would perceive you as more attractive with a mask?’
They were also asked: ‘How much do you want to make a good first impression on others?’
It makes more sense than wearing a COVID mask to stop transmission!
