I have a new paranoia (well, not that new, but today very pertinent).
What reactions do you have to people wearing glasses? Do they make more of a difference in a dancing situation than otherwise?
The reasoning behind my questions is that I normally wear contact lenses (always when dancing cos I’m vain
) but last night at one of my regular venues was unable to for the first time and so was in my glasses – and I felt that not only was I asked for dances less, but I danced badly when I did (not sure whether that was due to not being able to focus or because I felt self-conscious).
So, I’m curious about several things:
Are you drawn to people who aren’t wearing glasses more than those who are, and are you less likely to ask someone in glasses to dance?
Would it make a difference to the way you perceive someone you know well if you saw them in glasses for the first time?
Is this difference the same for men and women, or are men in glasses more acceptable than women?
Do you find it hard to dance in glasses, or was this just me?
(Sorry about the multitude of questions, but they’ve been bugging me all day, so I didn’t want to leave any out – answer as few or as many as you can be bothered to)
