Self Induced Peer Pressure

(SIPP)
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.

Group pressure, peer

When a group of people persuades an individual to do something very immoral like painting his pants with an extremely odd pattern, run into a crowd of black people and jews and scream "SIEG HEIL" and so on.
The group often laughs at the individual when he or she does these immoral things. Group pressure can be an awesome way of killing time.
Mike and Dan convinced Daniel that its awesome to put 10 different hairgels of very poor quality in the hair. Daniel did this and Mike and Dan hade a good laugh!

Excellent example of pure Group pressure, peer.

Peer pressure

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.
