I do find photographing strangers to be fun. Who cares if they look straight into your camera, and pose? Does it really matter if it detracts from the original principles of what street photography (unposed and undisturbed people subjects at their natural state) should be? What if it does not exactly qualify to be street portraits?
I say, screw all the definitions and what people tell you. Shoot it the way you want to, and shoot what you want to.

I shoot the strangers that I want to shoot, because I come across them, and I want to remember bumping into them. The way they look at you right in the eye, or stare blankly and directly into your camera, the way they shape their smile on their faces, and the way they see you as another stranger on the streets just passing by, those are the expressions worth capturing. There are times they can make the most compelling subjects.
