I grew...This is a really interesting experiment.... I grew up in the U.S., where smiling at strangers on the street is more common.. as is making small talk with strangers in stores, etc... without any other meaning taken (most of the time, sometimes it could be flirting too!)<br /><br />Then I lived in India for a year, and I had to learn the "right way" to behave in public... since I am a women, this resulted in my going from looking around, smiling at people, saying hello, etc in the U.S. to staring at the ground or my feet in public in India, crossing my arms, giving people scowls or staring hard when they were rude, but never ever smiling. I wrote in my journal, how living in India (Jaipur, specifically) made me suddenly be very away of all the cracks, potholes, and sewege canals, but at the same time I could not do what I had grown up being used to doing, looking around and taking in the world, enjoying people and places, instead I had to think about making myself look hard, angry, and uninviting for the sake of the "audience", the people walking in public with me.LinZihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06801877330215196191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10387075.post-51151560882365371902009-09-30T00:42:38.300+05:302009-09-30T00:42:38.300+05:30We weren't surprised at being picked by random...We weren't surprised at being picked by random men at all. <br />But we took the experiment as a platform to see what comes out of smiling, at anyone and everyone.<br />What is a 'slutty smile'?<br />What is a 'creepy smile'?<br />Why do we tag a stranger male smiling at a stranger female'bad'?Neha Bhathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18076131590908696493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10387075.post-88278779258623404202009-09-29T23:39:16.834+05:302009-09-29T23:39:16.834+05:30hey there sou. majestic is a place shared by many...hey there sou. majestic is a place shared by many many many people; ranging from sex workers to people like you and me. it is a transit point for some, a place of occupation and work for others, maybe home for someone else.mionoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10387075.post-69482884975081325542009-09-28T23:18:21.502+05:302009-09-28T23:18:21.502+05:30hi anon. thank you for the information.
