To the already insightful replies (shoving, yelling in a restaurant and dressing like a nerd top the list) I'd add:

eating rotting foods of various types
paying outrageous amounts for decent coffee
not tipping
driving like mad max

To name a few. . . oooo this list could get long

bowing and saying hello and goodbye in a store

wearing 4 inch heels to go dancing

apologizing for not drinking beer

hiding under the table to blow my nose

running to the washroom to have a smoke

drinking soju in the street

walking down a deserted street wearing 4 inch heels at 4 in the morning

blushing and swooning about some guy who just horked in front of me

not screaming when a guy Im out with walks like 2 metres in front of me

letting old men touch my kid

paying 20 bucks for lipstick

being spoon-fed by some guy who just horked

hang drying my clothes

eating jam at a fancy restaurant at supper

sorry my list is a little long but that's my perspective.. maybe I'll go on
