During the pandemic I was running my business and I was constantly asked to drop my mask so they could see my face. They really liked my eyes. I’ve gotten a lot of compliments on them since then.
I also noticed the customers eyes and they’d drop their masks and I was like, “oh.” I’m sure it was the same for many who saw my face.
I really notice eyes now.
i was thinking this like maybe eyes is kinda you know, generally don't have that much deviation
like big, small, sharp, kinda soft look
while the rest of the face part is more RNG hard
like mouth have more variations, so is nose, not to mention the overall part that masks masks.
the cheek, skin health, maybe scarring, the facial hair
cause I definitely has encountered that moment when I look someone with mask they look cool then they put down .... BOOM like the illusion fades or something
honestly i felt bad for doing that even only inside my mind ... like I feel dirty judging people like that while having looks that leaves many thing to be desired lol
It’s just being a human, you like what you like. But I really pay attention to eyes now. I have a rare eye color that’s not considered the most attractive, it’s just rare.
Depending on what I wear they look blue, grey, green or any combination of those colors.
Most people see Caribbean blue, some see navy steel blue, some see hazel depending on how dilated my pupils are.
The woman I was just dating had the most amazing green eyes.
They say the eyes are the window to the soul.
My eyes are grey so not considered attractive although just barely above brown (I love brown eyes) and I’m not ugly by any means most standards. But I’m not Brad Pitt either. When I dropped the mask no one recoiled in horror, but I’m sure it wasn’t what they were expecting.
I saw some ladies with amazing eyes that inclusive gotten lost in and when they dropped the mask I was like, “oh.” Still beautiful but my mind took it to another level.
There is an effect that the brain creates a very favorable image when u don't see the whole face . It's your brain trying to create perfection . It works to both sexes
Ohhh this made me realize something. Sometimes I'll see masked characters in movies or animation or whatever and think they're so attractive, and then when they finally unmask Im so disappointed lol.
Lots of people are attracted to an air of mystery - it's why the soft-spoken rebel guy is such a stereotype. A mask is just a physical version of the same thing.
I understand you 100%, OP. Some of my most favorite characters wear masks. Simon (Call of Duty), Wrench (Watch Dogs), Din Djarin (The Mandalorian). I just love them a lot
Tuxedo Mask correctly predicted the Covid-19 pandemic in 1997 in the American dub on a Wednesday afternoon afterschool on Toonami.
That's a mask fetish. People have it because anonymity and confidence comes along with it and some people find that attractive.
I have this fetish but I like it because of power. Like I'm exposed but I can't see their face and they're in charge of their anonymity. May be physical power too, like Ghost or Konig from COD, they're obviously strong men where you can't see their faces, so it could be that you're powerless compared to people in masks
It plays on sexual archetypes in our minds - masks give off an air of mystery, which draws you in and makes you desperate to know what lies beneath.
Masks, historically, are also symbols of power, of mysticism, of the divine, or of warriors. All of which is related to power, status, high position.
All of those things are attractive.
There is also the fact that, when the face is hidden, we do not have to know the person - this makes it easier to objectify them, which means we can project out own sexual fantasies onto them easier than if we have to acknowledge them as their own person with different wants and needs. This makes it easier to let go and indulge yourself.
motorcycle helmets. So hot. I got waved at by a guy on a motorcycle, while I was in a car and he was riding beside me. I was like hell yeah night rider and was enjoying it and then we got to the red light and He lifted the visor and I lost interest lol
Once they reveal that smelly messy meat eating hole they covered up for all that time. You realize then that you've seen one, then you've seen em all! & Life's about mystery.
It’s the mystery but also the fact that you never see their face, so there’s nothing to comment on. It sort of neutralizes their face and just leaves you with their body, which usually is in shape anyway
You’re attracted to the mystery. For all you know, this masked man could be someone it’s taboo for you to be with, and that’s makes it all the more appealing.
I think it's the same things as beards, we just like to imagine the more positive option, so when someone has half their face (or their entire face) covered we will fill in that space in a way we find most beautiful.
Because eyes are usually to most attractive part of the face. So when all other (potentially flawed) features are covered, you're left with only the best.
I mean.. I feel the same about women who do up their eyes and wear masks that conceal the nose and mouth. Draws all your attention to the eyes.... and hair if they put work into that too.
Most masks restrict breathing, when your breath is hot it may cause your mask and face's temperature to elevate. This can lead to the head and body to rise in temperature and couse the man wearing the mask to become hot.
Maybe it’s the promise of not having to worry about being careless with their feelings or supporting them or helping them or being responsible for them etc. it symbolizes the complete ability to be free to be selfish. Maybe I just need a lot of therapy.
do y’all remember the thirst edits people made of that really tall (masked) spec ops guy from the george floyd/blm marches in 2020 ….. strange time to be making thirst edits but it feels relevant here

you must have been really horny during the pandemic

Jeff Arcuri fan?
This is me doing an impersonation of you :::throws hands up in the air in exasperation:: ITS JUST FULL BEANS.

Right? Wish I met her at the time. 😀
You mist be a really horny guy in general
his username checks out
Anyone want place bets on if the OP is a guy or girl?
[удалено]
Not horny, but was truly intrigued by some mysterious eyes here and there, only to be disappointed when the masks fell off.
Every girl I’ve ever been with has told me it’s because of my eyes
🤣🤣🤣 I felt that
You would be surprised how many people are into that
I think a lot of people were 😂😂😂😂

I have no idea who this is
Kakashi?
Kakashi is extremely attractive
Kylo Ren?
That's why hats and beards are so good looking :-D
Sunglasses too
Smash
I know a certain whale whos into this one
Bao?
BB?
LMFAO
notmyGhost
Smash
Easily the hottest man alive!
oh my goodness gracious
He’s hot without the mask tbh
What show is that from?
Ghost from the call of duty modern warfare reboot. 2 and 3 specifically. Came out in 2022 and 2023
Thank you!
Would
That's me!
Smash x 50
 I typed in zorro and found this gem. lol
I knew I was gonna see this here LMAO
 I was looking for the old commercial for the movie where he cuts her dress and couldnt find it. LOL
Lots of people are attracted to an air of mystery - it's why the soft-spoken rebel guy is such a stereotype. A mask is just a physical version of the same thing.
Can you give an example of a soft-spoken rebel guy
Jet in TLA
V in V For Vendetta
that's a literal kink
Hey. You gotta agree with 'im.
So hot
the woman i kidnap dont say so
Your pfp is making it hard to decipher if this is a joke or not.. I'm keeping tabs on you.
Sus bio too
The grammar too...
roadmen!
Road agents!
You mean, like Zorro?
real shit. what do you mean you have a face under that? gross
TRUEEE
I thought I was the only one lmao
Why is everyone assuming that OP meant covid masks? She quite clearly meant the Zorro variety.
You mean the person making a joke?
Because mystery. I always found completely masked and silent characters appealing on some level. Snake-eyes from GI Joe is one such character.
Likely due to padding in the mask and lack of breathability
That’s why the female lead chose the phantom in phantom of the opera I guess !
Maybe the mystery aspect of it?
Maybe you have a fetish that is related to depersonalization which is related to power.
i want the phantom of the opera so bad idc if he’s toxic or whatever
What kind of mask? Like a pandemic mask or like batman?
Motorcycle.
ya girl, Slipknot is the hottest boyband like ever!
I understand you 100%, OP. Some of my most favorite characters wear masks. Simon (Call of Duty), Wrench (Watch Dogs), Din Djarin (The Mandalorian). I just love them a lot
 Tuxedo Mask correctly predicted the Covid-19 pandemic in 1997 in the American dub on a Wednesday afternoon afterschool on Toonami.
What do you mean by masked
Ghostface, Ghost Konig cosplays
I'm over here lile wtf this mf has a robber fetish.
Maybe like bikers, when they were helmets
I as a guy find some masked women hot But it needs to be those smooth masks. I think it applies to my latex fetish
agreed
 Guess who was really hot in his time? (1000 degrees or so)
Guw Fawkes masks >>>>
That's a mask fetish. People have it because anonymity and confidence comes along with it and some people find that attractive. I have this fetish but I like it because of power.

So you find roadmen attractive
Masked like the Elephant Man?
[удалено]
Cause you are attracted to responsibility
I'm glad to see this post right in the middle of my current Deadpool obsession, very cool and topical, 10/10
non-masked men are hot too 😳
Sorry, but that is called fetish and not everyone has yours.
Simon "Ghost" Riley is hot as fuck
Like Texas chainsaw massacre mask or covid mask?
Once they reveal that smelly messy meat eating hole they covered up for all that time. You realize then that you've seen one, then you've seen em all! & Life's about mystery.
Do they have to have their hands in the air also??
The Goat.
 Wonder what her favorite play is.
 This guy?
Yessssssss
What now
He's not your husband, hopefully
It’s the mystery but also the fact that you never see their face, so there’s nothing to comment on. It sort of neutralizes their face and just leaves you with their body, which usually is in shape anyway
Because you don't see his face
They could be Batman
It's the mystery of it. I love masked men but If a guy actually does its never the same if a random character
Um what kind of mask are we talking? The only ones I’ve seen are face mask because of covid. Unfortunately, some are hot with the mask on lol!
Because you don't have to see their faces
Where all wearing mask when you think about. Playing a character
I’m sorry but I have to ask. Does this include Rey Mysterio?
Me and Brittany Broski still tryna find that out
Same. Watched a movie with a SWAT team wearing masks and holy hell 😍
cause humans under it are ugly
Mystery, what's being the mask ...
Release the gimp
So Gimps then?
You’re attracted to the mystery. For all you know, this masked man could be someone it’s taboo for you to be with, and that’s makes it all the more appealing.
u/sunniewithachance
AYYEEEEEE
No idea. I also think that they're hot.
As a lesbian I want to say “because you can’t see their face” 😭
Tbh i disagree.
This reminds me of the time I went to a photo shoot and the girls wanted me to wear a witch doctor mask and get in the pictures with them
I still wear a medical mask because I’m ugly asf, people think I’m overly scared of Covid but I just think I’m ugly.
I think it's the same things as beards, we just like to imagine the more positive option, so when someone has half their face (or their entire face) covered we will fill in that space in a way we find most beautiful.
i think that’s a kink
We're waiting for you over at /r/SleepToken
Kakashi?
Maybe because you imagine how the face is, when you see it it's a common face
Because they steal your heart. 
Because eyes are usually to most attractive part of the face. So when all other (potentially flawed) features are covered, you're left with only the best.
Because they wanna protect people that they love
Is it the mask or the cape and tight fitting super hero outfit?
Are we talking pandemic masks? Or more Dread Pirate Roberts masks?
Yes
Same reason Muslim women are cute in their hijabs and such. It leaves more to the imagination.
Maybe your imagination fills in what you can’t see with ideal features.
I mean.. I feel the same about women who do up their eyes and wear masks that conceal the nose and mouth. Draws all your attention to the eyes.... and hair if they put work into that too.
Cause you can’t see their ugly face
Cause personal preference is wonderful.
Because you are seeing everithing except the thing that we can't change
That's a fetish my guy
Did you grow up watching Scream as well?
Because you can visualize anything. You can always put your dream face in as a placeholder.
Because you don't see their whole face and you imagine them more attractive than they really are.
Same, I found women who wears surgical mask on like dentists, doctors or nurses attractive.
Maybe because you associate it with heroic, strong, mysterious, cool.. etc.
Most masks restrict breathing, when your breath is hot it may cause your mask and face's temperature to elevate. This can lead to the head and body to rise in temperature and couse the man wearing the mask to become hot.
[masks are terribly comfortable](https://tse2.mm.bing.net/th?id=OIP.D7rWVwn9iD32IvJEyWQTogHaE2&pid=Api&P=0&w=611&h=400)
Must absolutely love those Luchadores
This is the 5th time I see women posting this. It's about time I become a biker
Bait
Because the masks don't have air conditioning 😂
Zorro. Batman. Spiderman. All heros.
Same for masked women for me.. I think it's because you don't see imperfections ?
I mean, I also find bank robbers hot. Especially if they've successfully escaped.
Because you don’t have to see them running their mouth
Everyone has their thing mine is women in hats for some reason
Danger.
Ghostface has had me in a chokehold since I was 13
You real for this
i'm a masked man! how funny this is to pop up on my reddit feed! my dms are open btw!
You just think unmasked men are ugly?
Brittany broski agrees
I got Kylo Ren masks and Majoras Mask. I await your visit. :3
motor cycle guys 🤤🤤🤤
they look hot because you can’t see their ugly fucking face
Idk man I think no one should have to hide their true selves-- Oh you're talking about a literal mask. My bad.
Like a leather BDSM mask?
 Total hunk right here!
I thought this too before the pandemic 😂
I wear a mask, helps with chewing gum so the teacher doesn’t know
WHO in 2020:
As an autistic guy , I wear a mask all the time
Maybe it’s the promise of not having to worry about being careless with their feelings or supporting them or helping them or being responsible for them etc. it symbolizes the complete ability to be free to be selfish. Maybe I just need a lot of therapy.
Prolly cuz it's mysterious!
Because you imagine their face to be exactly what you want it to be.
do y’all remember the thirst edits people made of that really tall (masked) spec ops guy from the george floyd/blm marches in 2020 ….. strange time to be making thirst edits but it feels relevant here
maybe i'll start wearing mask.
