Yeah, it's not exactly "staring", that's why I have been using the double quotes and saying things like "staring factor". Some people will probably feel people are looking at them even in a populated area. But, claiming "people are staring at me" is probably an exaggeration and it sounds like you had enough of it over the years. It's nothing compared to a Japanese girl walking on the street wearing Kimono in the states, I agree.
