17. i think it's rude to look people in the eyes, it's a sexual come on
however, i'm both a female and a high functioning autistic, so i have never noticed that anything good comes of looking ANY stranger in the eyes

if someone is going to be offended that i don't gaze into their eyes, i don't care if they are bill gates, i don't want to deal w. their "walk on eggshell" attitude anyway

why do people always think it's about them? "i should at least meet their eyes and let them know they are loved" -- no, i shouldn't, unless i'm a patronizing, condescending ass -- because let's get real, i don't love a fucking stranger on the street!

i guess i believe in equality and not condescension

now if she goes around looking everybody in the eyes (not wise as a female unless you want constant come one) then i guess she is treating them equally

:shrug:
