I feel like all the examples I have in this post are kinda racially charged LOL. It's very common and very normal in many Asian cultures to wear masks and gloves for all sorts of things - whether it's masking while getting groceries, or idk wearing gloves while working with bleach in the bathroom. There's just a certain type of cleanliness that I was raised with. And some people of European descent are raised with things like "you can wear shoes ON THE BED" think it's stupid to wear gloves or masks or helmets or whatever. They call it OCD or something, but I don't personally have that disorder out of the 5000 other disorders I have, I just turn red and puffy if something abrasive lands on me. Also I don't want to die of airborne viruses or asbestos inhalation. I just want to live man. | I feel like all the examples I have in this post are kinda racially charged LOL.

| Scout-Chan is a famous mask wearer. More proof that she's Asian for being the only person masked up on a Sunday afternoon?!?! |

I'm currently using extremely thick big blue rubber gloves I got from a store that sells bulk/returned items. I bought like 4 pairs of those gloves for 50 cents each. Those same type of gloves are like $10 on Amazon LOL. They've lasted me very well, they don't get easily cut open by knives or forks like thinner gloves, and they're insulated so I can wash dishes under high heat. I got one pair for the kitchen, one pair for the bathroom, one pair for outside... it kinda rocks to have gloves for different purposes and think about cross-contamination. | I'm currently using extremely thick big blue rubber gloves I got from a store that sells bulk/returned items.

It's really weird to think about how "wearing rubber gloves while handling corrosive chemicals" is looked down upon in certain cultures. It's not just a toxic straight masculinity thing "lol what are you GAY for wearing protection???". I've been told by lots of non-straight non-dudes that I'm silly/prissy/high maintenence (basically GAY/feminine as a pejorative in the gay community lol?) for wearing gloves or masks. I personally like having my hands intact, and not melted off and turning red and bleeding. I personally like not having diseases (ask me about the weird pre-covid we got during 2020/2019 that left our entire house debilitated for a week). | It's really weird to think about how "wearing rubber gloves while handling corrosive chemicals" is looked down upon in certain cultures.
