You hurt my feelings by implying there's something wrong with me. I think that if the average home owner knew how much effort goes into getting into a side or back yard in order to peep through windows, I'd receive much greater respect. Consider this please: While you're living your namby pamby evening in front of the TV and your wife is taking a shower or getting ready for an evening out, I risk ripping my pants going over wooden fences, I narrowly escape the teeth of backyard junk dogs, and being on 5' 5" in stature, I need to find something or 'things' to stack under a window in order to see inside. You people never have clean yards. I've tripped and tumbled over rakes, rose bushes, flower pots, garden hoses (can't you ever roll these damn things up?) and one night even one of those plastic swimming pools. The word 'peeping tom' is also a bit inflamatory in that I am neither peeping nor named Tom. I am John, and I think of myself as a domestic observer. Thank you for your time.

Interpersoanl relationships are very difficult to start and maintain.
There is some kind of thrill and power one gets by observing the lives of others.

Eye spy...people who have no lives of their own.
It's like watching reality tv. I suppose most ppl do it to either lust after ppl out of their league or to gather dirt on ppl they hate.
Have fun.

They get a rush of adrenaline with thought that they might get caught. Also, they get a free show out of it.

well, they probably have nothing to do, want to annoy the hell out of you, or they jus have no business of their own so they go poke around in everyone elses.

SAME REASON SOME PEOPLE WANT TO SHOW OFF ON PURPOSE.
