    It’s the opposite, but yes. You wouldn’t see Clark Kent and thing “oh that dude is definitely Superman” and you wouldn’t see Kylie Jenner and think “I’ll bet she’s that masked crime fighter.”

      Comic book nerd here.

      Clark does not mingle much with ordinary people outside his parents and people who he works with. And obviously his parent know who he is and most of his close colleagues have figured it out at somepoint.

      Also he acts completelly differend. The big guy at the work with bad posture and messy hair, who you have seen having hard time moving his desk at the office does not go straight to “Hey that dude must be the superman”

      Also depending of the story he uses contact lenses, or his classes change the colour of his eyes. Again depending from the story from disting blue or disting green to something more normal. Newer stories have also added his glasses to have mindcontroll powers from Kryptonian tech.

      If Jennergirl’s disguise was just a mask, and she wore spandex while fighting crime, I think people would connect the dots pretty quickly.
