I walked down a night market yesterday and played a game. How many people can I count staring at me? After I hit one-hudred in two blocks I stopped counting.

The stares of the Chinese can be logically organized into three groups: Non-Gender Specific, Men & Women.

Non-Gender Specific:
The 'sweet crap it's a white guy' stare.
The 'sweet crap it's a white guy I want to steal his wallet' stare.
The 'Oh no you didnt!' stare.
The 'This is an example of the dominating-superpower of the world?' stare.
The 'White boys gotta big nose' stare.
The 'Stare, Pretend to not stare, then stare again' stare.
The 'English practice but I'm too scared' stare.

Men:
The 'Is the sun in my eyes or am I really angry at the white guy?' stare.
The 'My urge to beat up this white guy is at conflict with my countries new-found role in the WTO and our potential in the global market' stare.

Women:
The 'sweet crap it's a white guy I bet he'll pay double for my prostiution services' stare.
The 'Im turned on by your greencard potential' stare.
The 'Stare, laugh, walk three feet away, look back again, giggle, walk three more feet, look back and get stared down by Ian' stare.

More to come later.
