There are masks which are tested to block 95% or 99% of particles of a specific size. IIRC, these are NIOSH approved, with N95 and N99 ratings respectively.

N95 and N99 masks are extremely difficult to breathe through. No normal person, let alone emphysema ridden obaachan could wear one of…

No way! Out of all popular actresses at the moment, I like her face the least. She looks like a chipmunk. "Facial-structure"... 0 out of 10. Sex appeal... also 0 out of 10 for me.

A male, especially gaijin, giving up his seat to any healthy looking woman is considered a blatant come-on. I've never done it, but I've chuckled to myself as other gaijin men, probably tourists, have tried to do this. Some of them were attempting to strike up conversations.
