Description
As an autistic person, looking others in the eyes while talking can be stressfull or even painful.
The western culture puts great value into body language and eye contact.
Neurotypicals can feel offended if we don't watch them as they talk to us,
even though we are listening to them and paying attention to everything they say.
This is a bit of a tongue-in-cheek thing I came up with as I tried to imagine how neurotypicals
might try to accomodate the needs of the autistic individual in every day life.
