Since everyone has missed the joke, including yourself here it is. A mask is something that covers something else up. Pants mask your ass, conformal coat masks a circuit board, aspirin masks the fever. You get monkeypox by having gay sex, aka, there's a dick in your ass. If you are wearing pants, your dick cannot be in an ass and your ass cannot be full of dick. Thus, pants are a mask for your butt, they prevent you from getting monkeypox. The joke is now dead.
