Re: How Often are you Grabbed in Public
Also bare in mind, sighted people do all this eye contact, none verbal communication stuff, so by the time someone gets into grabbing distance, the grabee has already seen enough of their vbody languages etc to know they aren't a threat.
With blind people, there is no communication, no acknowledgement that the person being grabbed actually has feelings, the sighted person literally grabs first asks questions later.
This is why as I said, I will always make an effort to be polite to someone who verbally offers help or asks me if I want it, even when the help offered is something rather pointless or irritating, like the time a very nice but completely misguided waitress asked if I was sure I wanted my coffee cup filling to the top since I might spill it .
