Due to the spread of the novel coronavirus infection disease (COVID-19), a Japanese couple who met with masks on from the first time they met until they got married were disappointed to see them take off their masks after marriage and divorced.
On the 2nd, the story of Mioko, who was introduced to a doctor through a marriage information company, was told in Japanese online communities such as Yahoo Japan. Mioko registered her marriage two months after her relationship with A. I was attracted to his genuine eyes, but I also liked his handsome eyes and eyes.
Mioko, who started living together, was immediately shocked to see her husband’s face. This is because, unlike bright and handsome eyes, his thick lips and teeth were too severely irregular. Mioko began to regret getting married. I also remembered that I couldn’t see my husband’s face properly because I had been on a date wearing a mask.
Mioko thought she would adapt as she continued to look at her husband’s face, but she couldn’t overcome it.Mioko reportedly pushed A unconsciously and avoided sleeping. Eventually, Mioko and A got separated and eventually divorced.
While wearing a mask is becoming commonplace, the so-called Magician (mask + scammer) is also widely used. Like Mioko’s husband, she wears a mask and looks cool just by looking at her eyes and forehead, but the harmony of her overall face means ugly.
In fact, some studies have shown that covering a part of the face with a mask increases the favorability of the opposite sex. Researchers at Cardiff University in the UK said in February last year that “makes the opposite person wearing a mask more attractive, regardless of gender.”
Michael Lewis, an associate professor of psychology at Cardiff University, explained, “When you wear a mask, attention is drawn to your eyes, and your brain glorifies the rest of your face, including your nose and mouth, overestimating the whole.”
