Unsure How Much Blog Overlap I want, but I thought this was relevant

Bus Experience 1

Jerusalem is an extremely safe city - it has a very low crime rate.

Last night, I was on the bus. The bus I was in passes through East Jerusalem. We were stuck in a hug traffic jam. I was half-asleep. Three Arab guys - in their late teens-early twenties started making lewd noises at me, but I ignored it/went on half-sleeping. Then they began banging on the window, right by my face. I jumped up, startled, and they laughed, then continued walking, and were gone.

I couldn't figure out if they were doing this because I was a woman, because I was Jewish, or because I was a Jewish woman, but no matter the reason, it was very unpleasant.

I told this to a friend and he goes, "If you thought that was unpleasant, I'm not going to tell you what happened near Ashkelon" - but I knew the answer to that - a rocket fell this morning near Ashkelon, where I have cousins and where I have spent much time.

I don't know why, but this comment from a friend kind of annoyed me. Maybe just because I am in a bad mood this morning.

I did however, receive two good quotes: 1. "If everyone were getting oral sex, we wouldn't need guns." (There's a great solution to the Middle East problem).

אבל לפחות יש אוטובוסים.

By the way I've noticed that guns are winning in the poll for guys, whereas women are split 50-50 about guns verse oral sex. I know my poll is unscientific, but still find that interesting and somewhat surprising. Is my surprise because I myself have given into gender stereotypes about sexual desire?
