My Husband Won’t Take His Mask Off – Not Even For Sex by T. Bosch
Anyone out there who thinks snarking at another adult over the age of 21 that “you’re probably a virgin” (as though having sex is a mark of maturity or adulthood, ie, using sexual activity or lack thereof as an insult), needs to reconsider that in light of the stupid sex-related things that people who do have sex do. Such as…

We’re both vaccinated now. When will this stop?
Dear Prudence,
I have been married to a great guy for five and a half years. He is handsome, sexy, funny, and kind.
It’s true that he has always been a little “prissy” about illnesses, but I never thought it was a real problem.
However, during the pandemic, his terror about getting sick has reached new levels.
For the last year, he has refused to take off his face mask, even when we are at home—just the two of us. This is true even now that he is fully vaccinated for the virus.
He wears it to sleep, to do most of his bathroom activities, and, yes, even during lovemaking.
To eat, he pulls it up to expose his mouth, and then quickly pulls it back down between bites.
While he does not insist that I do the same, I can tell it bothers him that I don’t—especially because I have now started going maskless outside, per the CDC guidelines, and plan on restaurant dining inside soon for a girls’ night out.
When I have tried to present him with the science, he says, “Scientists don’t fully understand the virus yet,” or, “I know it probably isn’t necessary, but wearing it doesn’t bother me, so if there’s even a small chance that it can protect us, I’d rather be on the safe side. What’s the harm?”
I disagree that there’s no harm. I want to see my beautiful husband’s face again. I want to kiss him on the lips romantically, like we used to, and not through a piece of fabric. (He does not change his mask very often and it is often smelly and soiled.) And I don’t want to feel judged by him for my own behavior, which I consider reasonable.
This is making me depressed and concerned about our future together. I have asked him when he plans to stop masking, and all he says is “When it is safe for everyone.”
What if this becomes a permanent part of him? My mother, who is very conservative, thinks that I should move out. But I don’t think I’m ready for that step yet. What I want is my husband back. How can I get through to him?
—Maskless and Alone

That is just moronic.
I would rather be a celibate adult than a married woman in a relationship with a dude who thinks it’s normal or okay to keep a mask on during sex.
