		<description>Wow, Amy, Deborrah..."we're at the grocery, don't ogle...don't ask me for a number...save it for the bars, loser!"

"staring incessantly with sexually leering overtones"

no wonder teen girls don't take anything adult women say seriously...young women usually aren't so angry and disgusted by someone having a sexual thought or a feeling. i can't imagine either one of you women are very happy in your relationships!</description>

		<description>Interviews and surveys such as this are self-reported.  That means the women that responded believed the ogling to be insulting and demeaning and harassment, otherwise they would not have complained about it.  It's like complaining that a restaurant serves rare steaks with blood dripping from it. You might like your meat like that, so to you the restaurant is great. I found it disgusting and would tell people that it was so. 
SO you see, how a woman feels about the ogling is the key here. Looking at someone briefly is not ogling. Ogling is staring incessantly with sexually leering overtones. It's uncomfortable and it makes a woman feel like a piece of meat. It is NOT attractive nor welcome by the majority of females, and especially not women in a country as sexually conservative and repressed as Egypt.</description>

		<description>You're dumber than I thought if you think women like being ogled. We're not just here for you to look at. Want to ogle? Go to a strip club or night club. If we're at the grocery, don't ogle. Don't ask me for a number. Save it for the bars, loser!</description>
