A picture of yourself would have been helpful in answering the question. But I'm an indian girl and I would say that if you're a pretty white girl and / or dressed in revealing provocative then they will stare at you. This is because in our culture (due to colonialism, lack of intelligence etc) white skin, blue eye, blonde hair, thin nose, is the only form of widely appreciated beauty.
So they will stare. Also, in asian culture women tend not to dress in revealing clothes. Therefore when women do, they will stare.
In general, due to the patriarchical society, Indian / Pakistani men can be womanising perverts, especially the older ones!
Maybe because you look like.. (ugly, pretty, beautiful, got a big zit, pimple face,acne, etc..) idk.. we cant read your mind in know what you look like.. we need a picture.. if you don't like it.. then tell th em to stop looking.. tell em starin is impolite mother F*ker.. they will listean lol.. I am Indian btw =P..
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
