Sometimes I want to be anything other than a 21 year old woman. I've started getting really irritated by being in public lately. It may seem really nervous of me but I'm just starting to really dislike men looking at you everywhere. Its not like its a letcherous thing and its not the same thing as being "checked out" Its just that when any man sees even the sillouhette of a young woman walk by they'll look. They will just look everytime. Every single one of them. I don't look at anyone. And I certainly don't want to be looked at. I wonder if I'll miss it when I'm older. I probably will. Its the same way people will alwyas look at someone that is hideously disfigured, men will always look at a woman.
Today I went to davis kidd to eat lunch and this man who was also eating lunch alone kept trying to talk to me. You know, there were tons of other people eating alone there. I just wanted to eat my sandwich and read my book. I want people to get their eyeballs off me. Its not an "i'm so hot" thing. Every young woman who reads this knows what I am talking about. I don't know if men are just born to do that or if it is out of appreciation for womens beauty or this really fined tuned desparation. I'm just a person who wanted to go eat lunch today and have no one in the world know I was alive. I wish I were invisible which is basically impossible at this age and gender and being averagely attractive.
