Stare-y stare-y night

How do women deal with being stared at all the time?

If I see a woman and I think she's attractive, I'll often stare at her without even thinking about it. Sometimes if she notices me I'll get embarrassed and look away, but not always - sometimes I'll keep on lookin'. Only later will it occur to me "Gee, that was kinda rude."

Medical research* has indicated that most guys stare at women in similar ways (except for a small minority who stare at other guys instead).

So ladies, how d'ya deal with it?

Just one of those things I've always wondered about, but never asked anyone.

*meaning "I have a feeling somewhere between my groin and my gut that this is true"

I remember a news article years ago claiming research which showed looking at beautiful women produced effects in the male brain a bit like those of cocaine.
