Help, I need faster running shoes!

Arg Im so mad! This place is driving me crazy! I was just walking down the main road at uni, minding my own business when I noticed this guy with a video camera taking in some of the scenery, I thought... And then I noticed it follow me as I walked past! Im so mad at this place at their lack of boundaries or respect or whatever it is that makes them think its ok to harrass white girls! I cant walk down the bloody street without everyone feeling the need to say hello to me and ask me where Im going, whats my name, where am I from, or just blatenty stare. Its rude! I wish theyd just leave me alone, its f-ing freaking me out! Someone needs to run a national campaign to educate these people on personal space and boundaries and subtlety! The women are fine, theyre nice... Maybe Ill just move and live with the Minangkabau in Sumatra- thats a matrilineal society... meaning its run by women so men would have more bloody respect! Then maybe leaving the house wouldnt be so stressful :S
