Eye Contact Must Be Consensual At Popular Bar

People get dressed up to go to a club because they want to be stared at. Besides, how creepy would it be to ask for ‘permission to stare’?

Welcome to Club High Strung.

    Wonder if you know that group think pinheads who wear the Yoke of the Woke along with their stupid pronoun hangups claim "Oriental" is a bad word. "Asian" is supposedly less racist now.
    Wonder if Woke Jokes are trying to change "The Orient Express" to "The Asian Express."

    Interesting, Dino. One of kids at work, of Oriental decent told me he was taught to not look directly at people and to never use the designation: "I"

    I find that strange but this behavior that might come out of an authoritarian society.

    When me dino joined the Alabama Department Of Corrections during 1981, I was taught to look inmates in the eye.
    Before that I was a newspaper reporter for 7 years. You'd be mistaken should you think I didn't look people in the eye even then.
    Later during the Eighties, I was walking through a mall and one black guy complained to another black guy about me looking him in the eye.
    Wouldn't he have to look me in the eye to see that much?
    During the Nineties I get steamed about something I can't quite recall in a store but found it memorably curious how the black guy I was talking to averted his gaze, looked very uncomfortable and said nothing.
    Three or four years ago a fully retired me dino got so pissed over crappy service in a Subway that I shouted at two black guys working there on my way out and both averted their gaze. One even looked scared, though I issued no threats.
    Don't recall any black prison inmates acting like that. They'd look me in the eye right back.

    I have always been the kind of person to look straight at others when walking by them. I have no ulterior motive for doing so except to acknowledge their presence.

    For the past 20+ years, it has been my Job to look directly at people from a distance and at close proximity...they were customers and potential customers...what's a person to do.
    I live in this world, Not just trying to get by unnoticed.
