Pet peeve . . . eye contact . . .
Wednesday, August 11, 2004 1:37 AM
I read where the ladies of the evening old (prostitutes) used belladonna in their eyes to enlarge their pupils. Enlarged pupils supposedly send a powerful message to man that the woman finds him attractive and thus he spends more on her.
Most of the dancers I know won't give eye contact. I'm surprised it is even an issue. I'm thinking . . . a window to the soul . . . or perhaps they may have an involuntary response gazing into the enlarged pupils of a customer . . .
But, why wasn't eye contact a problem in the olden days?
Got something to say?
