I have a tendency to focus on people who are talking to me to the point that the eye contact makes them uncomfortable. It's a really strange feeling having to remind myself to look away in appropriate intervals.

And boobs ... yes I am a human male in his sexual prime and not glancing at boobs is literally impossible. It's like asking me not to breathe.

I have recently been informed that human females have a similar problem with bulges. Not glancing is impossible.

you can train yourself to not do this.

i consider myself generally quite misogynistic and horny as hell... so take my word that it is possible.

Not glancing is possible, if you use that as an excuse, you're lying to yourself.
