Oh no, I know touching boobs is way better, but some of them are really nice man. If a guy had a really well shaped penis I'd comment on that too.

The problem is that we are still barred by a social barrier from doing things we know we shouldn't, and Google Glass removes a lot of that by making it impossible to tell what a person is doing. So yes, the nuclear option for a store is fine; you can say No Google Glass and it'll halt every problem I'm talking about...in that store. Guess who isn't going to say no? Large companies.

Starbucks isn't going to tell people not to wear something. We can't even tell people to leave the store unless another customer complains they're disruptive. These large corporations that have been built up for quite some time now are based around customer first, and that means bending over backwards for them, and that means letting people wear Google Glasses.

We'll see how each place responds though. It won't be a uniform standard of no glasses or yes glasses, because I can guarantee people are going to complain if their face computer isn't allowed in a store.

I'd wear the shit out of google glasses, only if I can have an App that let's me put mustaches on everyone.
