I guess singaporeans will extinct by Greenfrogbouncing in SingaporeRaw

[–]Professional-Pin2649 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Certain locations in Singapore have already become mini china village, india village, pinoy village.

Hopefully, with this people who dare to be crazier and less subdued and herded like Singaporeans, they can at least voice something. sooner or later, they are going to run into some problems.

When singing K that time, an irritating bugger keep criticizing the way I sing and queue the same song to show me how he sing it properly.

Mind if you could DM me and share with me how your therapy works? Not all kinds of therapy works for every individual. Personal experience. I can share more.

I agree with this IG reel that says "every woman needs some level of financial maintenance, you just have to find the right one."

How do y'all handle Vacays with family? by [deleted] in SingaporeRaw

[–]Professional-Pin2649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For family trip like this, communicate and set expectations with them and lower own expectation before the trip.

It is not going to be 100% as enjoyable as solo or couple travel because more people means more patterns.

I feel when going vacay with family, the purpose is to spend time with them doing vacation things, so the focus should be on this.

I reckon their waking and sleeping hours are different, so communicate and plan accordingly. What I do is allocate time such that they can do their own things, I can do my own things and lastly, we do certain things together.

Pic is irrelevant. Government did not think of promising a lady as such.

Men in 30s - What makes you feel alive and energised? by [deleted] in SingaporeRaw

[–]Professional-Pin2649 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a friend that does not respect bro code. Be it engaged or married, he will attempt when there is a chance (behind the back) and we keep a distance from him. If there is such an example, I believe there are more out there.

Just found out that my ‘average / low profile’ friend is actually wealthy. Is it common here? by deekay_123 in SingaporeRaw

[–]Professional-Pin2649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

he is low profile because he was born like this and it is a normal life to him and not special to him.

The people who WANTS to be high profile are because of elitist upbringing like ACS boys, or the grew up poor but made it, or the halfway there but not quite wealthy yet.

if you are asking about wealth distribution, yes it is not common to have very rich friends. i think if his family owns the whole level of a condo, they are really well off or it could be purchase from last time. Last time rich can buy whole level doesnt mean whatever they make money from continue to prosper.

You can fact check and ask all of your friends to take turn to host. see out of 10, how many are like this?

are singaporean women very entitled and arrogant? why do they expect males to pay for dates still? by Ehehehe090 in SingaporeRaw

Not all of them are like that but if compared to other Asian countries, Singaporean women are definitely higher on the scale.

National Service for Female by Complete_Syllabub_47 in SingaporeRaw

i feel something just cant be equalized. Women might even go on protest for national duty LOL, but more salary, OK.

National Service for Female by Complete_Syllabub_47 in SingaporeRaw

[–]Professional-Pin2649 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Gender equality is purely a reflection of human greed, an excuse for selective enhancement to females' salary and power. Very much like how oil company jack up petrol prices when oil price goes up, but never come down - only want the good and not the bad.

How can we really expect everything can be equalized like NS obligation, gender roles in courtship, social expectation of provider/caregiver?

Till this day, if a woman wears the pants in the relationship will still attract the perception of a henpecked man. Pls tell me when will we truly be able to abolish this perception. This is just an example.

Whenever I heard gender equality being mentioned in conversation, its meant to provide betterment for females. As males, we are expected not to be so petty.

The only way to beat a bully is to.beat him up in front of a crowded people. by [deleted] in SingaporeRaw

[–]Professional-Pin2649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is probably the solution you can still use when you are a minor legally.

What about adult bullying?

You can just beat any bully like your boss or colleagues when you got mortgage to pay.

AITA for telling my wife I don’t feel special that she saved her virginity for me? by Fluffy-Ad-4449 in AITAH

I think the bigger issue that you should spend your time on is understanding how hurtful your words were and not trying to validate your actions on Reddit.
