what i also find astounding is that when I go out with my husband, we are both Western, some men still stare at me...although my husband stares back at them and tells them to stop staring(in not so polite words, mind you)...and they still don't stop!
Now, if I were a young beautiful girl, I can somewhat understand being stared at...although it is still wrong.....

But I am a middle aged wife and mother....so not only is this very disrespectful, it is also a bit perverted IMHO.
