It's probably because women would like to have kids and give them a nice place to live with a nice future.

In many spanish cultures it is flattering to a woman to be stared at.

Ever been to Miami? Or Spain?

I don't think women are more concerned than men. I think more women post on forums. Every male I know is concerned.

Heck, it wasn't too long ago that a poster in this very forum posted a link detailing how a young woman was gang raped by at least a dozen illegals. The very fact that illegals are willing to violate a bunch of laws of laws to work here, including: stealing a job, violating our border, stealing a Social Security number or an ID, drive without a license, and without insurance, would seem to indicate at the very least illegals have a propensity for criminal behavior.
I posted that story about the young woman. Yes it is horrible women and children seem to be victims the most but let us not forget animals too. The sad thing is if these crimes were happening to men on a large scale something would be done about it I mean serious laws would be put into place.
But because it is women and children psh psh. Lets wait until some parent lobby's for change before we actually do something about it.

Thanks Hawk, for remembering that story about that poor woman.

Why? Because women are supposed to be soft and permissive and liberal? Does that mean we're supposed to be doormats too?

The prevailing culture here is not "Spanish", and the predominant ethnic group in this country is not Hispanic...so why should we accept being stared at when we find it offensive and intimidating? I've had groups of Hispanic laborers say the most vile and disgusting things to me (in Spanish) when I've been in traffic or walking, and I *hate* it. It's SICK.

I wasn't excusing the behavior, I am just giving background on the possible reasoning.

They need to understand that this isn't Spain, Havana, or Mexico DF. This is America, and that sort of behavior is considered extremely rude.
