Basically/broadly, systematic medical and unethical abuse of people from certain groups, as a tradition dating back to the programme with the same name-- putting either reproductive health or life at risk. But note it was a side point to illustrate just how ugly this neglect gets even in a modern society. The general ugliness is the point, the example is a side point.

Gyrre:
Them: "Will you just look me in the eyes?"
Me: makes and  maintains eye contact as request
Them: squirming "Not like that."

hedgie:
I’m pretty bad with eye-contact, myself.  I’m sure that my habit of staring at the ground has caused plenty of women to think that I was staring at their chests.  Of course, if I actually *were* attracted to them, I’d have less of a problem making eye contact.

sitnspin:
Eye contact is very culture-specific, not all cultures encourage it and many consider it rude and/or aggressive.
