That is interesting, Alan. I have never been good at eye contact with strangers and, since turning to exclusive kilt wearing six years ago, I find I am even worse at it, if that is possible. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that I actually make a point of avoiding eye contact nowadays!

That does not mean that I shuffle along with my head down, far from it. I stride along with head held high - but I definitely, and quite naturally, do not look into other people's faces when out and about.
