You could be right it might just be semantics. I consider myself a planner, I overthink just about everything I do. If I am planning a vacation I will literally have hundreds of hours of research and planning before I will go. For me to book a plane or a hotel I probably spend 30 hours looking for the best price over the course of a couple weeks. I may be obsessive, and I am cheap.

Let me understand this: For them, it's probably fine to record someone who is doing something they don't like because that person is in public, but if they perceive that they are being stared at, that's a huge problem? Hmm...And, if the masks actually, "Make it worse," and these are probably also the people most vocal about wearing masks, my advice is: Pick one. I'm not suggesting that there is absolutely no such thing as aggressive staring, just that it's largely a matter of perception. A person could simply be lost in their own thoughts, but their eyes happen to be going a particular way. "War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen..let us give them all they want." William T.

A few weeks ago at Bovada the live dealers all started wearing masks. At first I found it offensive because they seemed to be aggressively staring. It's because that's all I can see is their eyes. That's what's happening with women, they think men are staring at them because they're totally focused on the eyes now. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Perhaps we should mandate dark-tinted sunglasses for everyone. /sarcasm But, I do understand that. I've actually informed people, on a few occasions, that I'm smiling about something done/said...because they likely have no way of knowing and probably wonder why I would even be looking in that direction.
