I do not like it when women stare at you from head to foot and back again.

What is with women staring at people especially other women from head to foot and foot to head? I feel like they have so many insecurities in life that they need to do that. They are like scanning other people's dresses from head to foot like judging them with what they are wearing.
I think its kind of rude to do that.

That is really a rude thing to do. There is a subtle way of doing that. I feel I am under the lens of a microscope when people to that to me. Although that doesn't often happen to me.
But I remember one instance when I was introduced to a new set of friends. I just walk away from a friendship and I was feeling alone without any real close friends in high school. I don't have anybody to share lunch with and this really nice classmate of mine invited me to their group. When I was introduced, this one girl looked at me from head to foot as if sizing me up. Eventually, we still have that friendship until now. We get to see each other even once a year. I related this experience to the girl concerned when we reminisce about the good old days. And she said she was not conscious that she did that.
I guess some people are just obvious in their way of observing other people by actually looking them from head to foot. To them it may not be that bad as to satisfy their curiosity, but to some it may seem like rudeness.

I do not do that to others too, as I wasnt taught to look at people that way. I get pissed when people do that sizing up look.If people like to satisfy their curiosity, I guess all they have to do is to know that person more better than look at them that way. If I was the one being looked at, I stare right back and size them up too.So that they'll know how it feels being looked at. I easily get piss, and usually I lose my interest in knowing that person more. Thanks for the reply!:)

I totally hate that myself it makes me feel like what I am wearing is being judged. I don't know what it is with women, seems like jealousy issues or as if we are some type of competition.
I don't get it as women we need to unite and assure that we if anybody stand together in the form of not demising one another. It is bad enough that the world does it.
I am one that it is too funny, I will be speaking to someone face to face and my daughter says what was that on her shirt. I would say what was on her shirt, she would say mommy you were standing right in front her. Shows that when I communicate I apply total eye contact not what they are wearing. LOL
