"One evening, a customer at the bar asked her to pull down her mask so that he could see her face – a request that became so common from male customers during the pandemic that hospitality workers started referring to it as 'maskual harassment.' When Ezumaki refused, he said: 'Well, I guess you’re not going to eat tonight.'

The comment exemplified the power that some male customers, managers and even colleagues feel they have over women’s bodies in the restaurant industry."
