I don't think it's a GCC thing... at least mine doesn't do it. Codee doesn't seem to be scared or aggressive toward anything or anybody, actually. She even shares me with Isis Redbelly now. They've always been out at the same time but while Codee rode my shoulder while I do my early morning chores, Isis followed me up and down the stairs flying and perching in favorite spots and asking for Picapica (head scritches) every now and then. But, last week or so, Isis started flying over to me to perch on my head and, after a couple of days, she went down to my left shoulder. Codee has always ridden my right shoulder but, at the beginning, I was on high alert for fights and bites or hard nips from either of them but Codee simply went down a bit on my chest to look at her and I guess she decided it was OK because I now do my chores with both of them. And my chores mean feeding dogs and cats, cleaning litter boxes, making the bed, putting away stuff, washing dishes, preparing the produce for the birds, doing the canaries and downstairs parrots cages, etc so it's not as if I don't move my hands or don't grab anything with them but she has never reacted to any of my movements. The only thing she does is, every now and then, when I wash dishes, she goes down my arm for a nice bath under the running faucet.
