I seriously hate people

What in the world makes some guys think they have the right to talk to a complete stranger as if she's an object just because she's a woman?

I was at the gas station with my dad, and he went into the bathroom, so I was left alone looking at the shelves. Suddenly, this guy passes and makes a lewd comment about the way I look (jeans and a long t-shirt, wtf seriously?). I give him the death glare, because he deserves it and all of a sudden he STARTS FOLLOWING ME AROUND. He's talking about how he's "sorry" and crap. Ugh, finally Dad gets out and so I run over to him and tell him to make the guy stop following me. As soon as he sees I'm with my dad he leaves me alone. Wtf.

What the heck do some men think gives them the right to act like that?!

Anyway, this incident and rant reminded me of a great group called "Take Back the Night", which is an attempt to stop or at least greatly diminish sexual violence against women (including harassment like in this case).
