Feeling obligated to do something because everyone else is doing it, unlike normal peer pressure this all occurs in the head and is a very difficult thing to deal with.

In the 1924 Will Rogers comedy-film "A Truthful Liar", his wild and wacky tales of his assorted adventures in the world of politics are related in front of a "jeery of your peers" audience of fellow townspeople who disdainfully wave off Will's stories as hogwash.

You dont get sick from peer pressure, you get sick from pathogens. You dont go to the doctor because of peer pressure, you go because you are sick. Wearing a mask is no different. You dont decide whether to wear a mask because of peer pressure, you decide to wear a mask or not wear one based on whether you're sick.
Peer pressure doesn't change whether someone is sick or not, therefore it should never influence what someone wears on their face or head.

Trying to get somebody to do something based on what everyone else is doing, thinks is safe, or thinks someone should do.
Most people wear masks, and some think that peer pressure, or even something worse than peer pressure (like deaths) is going to change the way somebody else does things, especially if peer pressure convinced them to put on a mask.

Peer pressure is the influence from members of one’s peer group.
It can be a positive or negative influence.
But when you have great friends, being peer pressured is a pleasure because you know they will never peer pressured to do something not good for you or others.
So enjoy a peer pressure group ! And choose the best people to be in !

Ronnie : Come for drinks !
Me : I can’t I need to work
Ronnie : Come only for one drink, after we will work !
Me : Fine okay but you are so peer pressuring me today ..
Ronnie : I am glad you are part of the peer pressure group, not exclusive, open to anyone.

One partner in a committed relationship that is incapable or unwilling to carry their fair share of the burdens in the relationship: to whit, child rearing; child pick-up/drop-off; household chores; caring for elderly parents; grocery shopping etc. etc. Thereby, making themselves an unfair burden on the capable partner in the relationship. The functional equivalent of another child.

I'd love to go to Happy Hour with you. BUT my Husband took the afternoon off to play Golf, so I have have to pick up both kids, go to the store AND cook dinner.

He's such a Peer Child
