Voyeurism... again

I kind of want to go see the exhibit and make sure I'm not in there doing anything embarrassing...

...remember when I told you about the tour bus yelling funny things to me while I got ready to go out? It's possible...

A friend of mine recently looked out his window to see someone photographing him (I wonder if it was this artist) and was neither surprised nor creeped out by this. I was, for him. He was fully dressed and just going about his business, so reasoned that it's just natural Manhattan voyeurism, nothing unusual or worthy of getting alarmed over, but I still find it invasive and unnerving. He seemed to think that people do this all the time. If I looked out my window and saw someone taking a photograph of me, even if just putting on a sock fully dressed or some quotidian activity, I would be completely appalled, enraged, and freaked out!!
