In Singaporean forums (mainly sgforums, hardwarezone and yahoo), quite a number of local boys LOVES to post about girl stuff, and ahem, sex.
It's not considered as unusual to see several topics on the same subjects - hot girls (eg. which body part you like to bio) and ahem, sex.
I've been to other forums too, both Asia-based and of the West. Both types naturally do not avoid such topics, but they are most usually far from vulgar and crude, which is the exact way our local boys talks about... well, you know. *points above*
And the number of those topics, cannot beat even one of Singaporean forums even when combined together.
Even in those non-Singaporean forums, who were the guys who goes crude (about the S topic), and would lose control of their hormones by harping on hot girls and the S topic the most?
Yep, you got it right. It's the Singaporean guy.
From almost out of nothing, a typical Singaporean guy seems to have the special ability to sudden say something sexual, which might or might not be out of context.
Worse thing is, it seems to be a local culture. Ah, those very memorable 'cheeb*e', 'c**t', 'lanji*o' etc. are frequently used and few seems to think that something's wrong until someone cared enough to point it out to them. Even so, they might laugh and brush it off.
Singapore = conservative society? BS. Those Western media should pay a visit to our local forums and see how much we love talking about female bodyparts, genitals and ah, the S topic.
I wonder if this is a by-product of too much suppression from the government (eg. censorship).
I'm not whining or something. Just very curious why something like this is happening.
What you say is true... I was at a Hong Kong site and the people there commented that Singapore forums talk nothing intelligent and mostly only about crude sex...
I think that this is because Singaporeans are in a sexual no man's land. The people are confused. Prostitution is illegal but just go to Geylang and it is openly available.
A little schizophrenic don't you think?
Cinema Restricted shows are so mild but you can see bestiality on the net.
Very schizophrenic don't you think?
So when people are confused... they have to try to figure it all out for themselves and one way is to express themselves in the forums. Until they come to terms with it, the issue is in their head all the time and they talk about it constantly.
It is only natural that many Singaporeans think about sex all the time since they are suppressed and it does not make any sense.
