    lol i lived in ny for 9 years and chinese dont really stare we just walk by
    but since i moved to connecticut and chinese have been moving up here more and more frequently due to the casino work
    everytime you see a chinese person at mickey d's or bk or the mall * hence its also older people * 30 + * they stare and go o look * saying in canto or mand* another chinese so many nowadays even though i have lived here for 6 years.....

    i think you're pretty too...so maybe they're staring cuz they think you're pretty. i kinda understand what you're saying. i get the feeling of that happening to me to. but the guys that stare at you, just stare at you as you're walking by. it's not like you have to be in the same room. i work with this guy, who according to a friend from work, watches me as i work. and when i have to talk to this guy, he's always rubbing his hands as he's looking at me, or talking to me and then he smiles!!! it's so gross and perverted!!! really makes me wanna hit him!!! ...many many times, till he's black and blue!! grrr

    I think they stare at you because they want to talk to you but don't know what to say, maybe?

    Perhaps you saw tourists and they wanted help but were too shy to ask?
