I have been stared at while in India and I hate It, I am a very shy person and I don't like it at all and it creeps me out and makes me feel very uncomfortable luckily my husband was with me and he put them in their place.

      ‘School smart’, or math/logical intelligence, memory capacity, and linguistic intelligence, are only a few kinds of intelligence. There are at least 12 types of intelligence, IMHO, look it up and you will find at least 8 of them. I’m sure you have one of them. IMHO intra-personal intelligence, or self-awareness, is the most important type, yet the most under-appreciated in today’s society.

We don’t need to argue about what we find beautiful. You are just a sad troll helping to hype the negative ideas of india. Your other comment on rape is sad. Yes bad things happen in India.

I said I saw beauty, I saw nice people, I saw smiling faces. I said that people who have less than us Americans were still smiling. I said I felt safe. I never said India was the best place ever. Nor did I say that there are no problems in India. Not once did I say I wanted the USA to be like India. Your “facts” can not change how I felt, how I saw India and how I respond to my trip there. I enjoyed my trip. I don’t live there and didn’t experience any of the things you discussed, so how can I form an opinion or make comments on something that didn’t happen to me.

      The USA has a very negative thought on India and I experienced an amazing time. I hope that when you come to the USA you also experience an amazing time. There are good and bad people everywhere and every country has issues.
      Yes women have more “freedoms” here in the USA but there are still many rapes, crimes and murders. Some of the actual statistic per populations are astounding. But those reports don’t always show the experiences of real people living real life or visiting a country.

    Greetings from Boston....I have been to India few times and had a great time for the following reasons: being assertive as you correctly pointed out, staying in 5 star hotels , planning out your trip with a guided tour, drinking water from only SEALED bottle, having a mentality of "survival of the fittest" and doesn't hurt to have a "gym physique" ...usually we stay for about 2 weeks but by the end of the trip it can be very exhausting because of the experience of extreme shocking poverty, traffic chaos, noise, pollution,etc and you are glad to be out of the country..scams and attitude usually start at the customs - men in white uniforms in the airport- never friendly or polite, followed by as you are coming out of the airport the smell of leaded gas and humidity hits you hard...on the other hand, amazingly beautiful places in Kerala, Goa, the Indian cuisine, surprisingly the 5 star hotels in India are lot lot better than here in US or in Europe..breathtaking beauty of Taj Mahal will shock you..people in Bombay, Delhi are stylishly dressed ( some women truly very beautiful & look gorgeous in Saris & Indian dresses ), speak good fluent English and time to time you will see chauffeur driven Rolls Royce, Bentley and high end cars...extreme Indeed..you need at least a week to recover after the trip....after a few months, interestingly and mysteriously you will start missing India !!!.
