It's like people who don't like cats moan that the cat always comes and sits on them. It's because they narrow their eyes in disgust when they see a cat, and to a cat that's a sign of affection and invitation. If they'd only open their eyes wide and stare at the cat (which cat-lovers do, due to the enjoyment of seeing it) then the cat would stay away, as staring wide-eyed to a cat is a challenge.

>Very recently, in a zoo a gorilla escaped from his ground and esp (!) attacked a woman. She was bitten 50 times and had many broken bones. She was a regular visitor of this gorilla (named Bokito) and thought they had a special bond. She always smiled to him and he showed her his teeth. She thought he liked her and he thought she challenged him!
