No, an aversion to masks comes from a Western convention against covering the face. One covers the face out of shame, or a desire to commit criminal acts (outside of special occasions where "fancy dress" masks are appropriate, of course.) Look at Western popular culture. Who covers the lower parts of their faces? Bandits, bank and train robbers, highwaymen, rapists. (Notice how the Lone Ranger and superheroes tend to mask the UPPER parts of their face. Spiderman? He covers his whole face, and gets more or less treated like someone wearing a ski mask into a bank ...)
It's called cultural conditioning, dickass. We're not fucking germ-sponge chinks who need to wear masks for the same reason feedlot cows need antibiotics.
