Sarong Party Girl

I totally missed the Sarong Party Girl nude fiasco in the papers. Which is really kinda sad coz I was and still am an avid SPG reader. While I dislike the fact that she prefers caucasian men over chinese men, at least she writes intelligently and with verve, unlike other retarded popular bloggers like xiax..ahem ahem.

Sorry, had a bit of a cyber cough.

Anyway, I think there's absolutely nothing wrong with her posting nude pictures of herself on her blog. I happen to believe in the theory that the only reason why Singaporeans are so addicted to blogging and chatting and whatever, is because the internet gives an illusion of safety and privacy.

Privacy? Yeah. Because whatever you do on the internet, you're hidden behind a moniker and an ip address. Never mind that you can be traced easily by the authorities if you happen to piss them off, people tend to want to forget this little fact. In the Draconian society we call singaporean society, free speech is well, not really free.

Which is why when we get onto the internet we go all nuts for the internet has virtually, (pardon the pun), no rules, unless of course you get traced.

But then again in reality, you can do anything as long as you get caught.

I think I just argued myself into a corner.

Hahaha. Lovely.

But anyway, what's wrong with the SPG for posing nude on her site? So it's okay for people like Dick Chan to peek underskirts and write all about it on his blog but it's not okay for SPG to publish a little risque material on herself? Shame on the Straits Times for their insistence to publish that article. It's shameful that our national paper has to resort to such a step in order to get people to read.

No, her parents didn't not bring her up well. I would say a person should stand for what she/he had done her/himself instead of blaming the parents. Even if her parents did do something about it, like making her wear a chastity belt, I would bet a billion dollars (if I actually had that sum) that she would go ahead and do the same thing. Can you blame the parents then?

Honestly, I still cannot figure out what's wrong with her baring all on the internet. Internet pornography is so rampant and nobody does anything but once a Singporean goes softcore, woooo shit hits the fan.

I live in such a hypocritical society. Yeah, that's right. Turn a blind eye to geylang, changi village, and desker and let's all gasp at the audacity of this girl who dared to expose herself to the world.

Bah, Singaporeans.
