I wear an N95 daily and I get a lot of harassment. The lightest is random people on the street swearing at me, and the worst so far was a guy stalking me home to tell me my mask contained 49 heavy metals and cornering me. I am quite afraid for my physical safety at this point especially as also queer and self defense in this shithole is basically illegal. People constantly ask snarky side remarks about why I wear a mask, and it’s so tiring but at least I wish it was only that and I didn’t need to fear for my safety
I just politely say I’m more comfortable wearing it.
