It's not staring, it's really verbally harassing. It has happened numerous times and not only to me, but to my colleagues as well. And I'm not exactly dressed in high heels and a short skirt either.
I would gladly avoid that neighborhood but that's just not possible. It's unfortunate that extremism leads to extremism.
And I know they were voting against the minarets and not to the call to prayer... that is in MY country, not in Switzerland.
Trust me, I don't mind staring, I don't mind being the only white on the block. I really don't care, but I do care when a bunch of men form a circle around me and start threatening me because I don't wear a veil.
