i had noticed the lecherous and obscene gazes of the neighborhood men towards my wife... during daily greetings or trash collection, they would stare at her breasts and buttocks, as if appraising her, with a sinister smile and glancing at her. At the town meeting held at the community center, my wife was taking minutes diligently despite being subjected to obscene stares from both sides... but i didn't know what was happening behind my back.
