The Hoo Haaa about marriage and falling birth rates in Sillypore
There will be no pics my gentle reader as today will be a blast of hot air from an old man.... ME!!!
There was this recent study or survey or WHATEVER done stating te various reasons why people do not get married here..... Its plain and simple lah..... attitudes....!!!!
When we date, the very process of going into a date is a sparring match... almost.... Most guys want a pretty sexy lady... (Come one guys admit it lah.... If given a choice of a sexy babe and fat old plain Jane.. who would you choose??) Guys oso choose based on the ease of getting a lady into bed... The lady on the other hand chooses a guy based on his looks...(Come one tell the truth and shame the devil!!! If you looked at short and fat ole me and Edison Chen... who would you choose) and the size of his wallet. I am not sure if th girls are as direct as before, but the first question girls asked me when I was dating many many many moons ago was "What car do you drive"?... Well now I drive a fucking evo and if you dare ask me that question, I will ask back..."I drive and Evo but only super models like Rebecca Lee and pretty babes like Fiona Xie can sit in it..." Seriously man...
So back to the sparring... when each couple has sized out the other part, then comes the part of"qualifications"
GUY: Hmmmmm ok ok body.... nice smile.... cheerful outlook.... Ok onsssss
Girl: Hmmmmm drives stupid Altis only... lucky not Vios lah.... holds a gold card.... chey now people got platinum liao.... works in MNC... ok lah... onsssssss
Then of course the datng process starts.... and after a few years... if the guy hasn't strayed or the girl hasn't blown the guy's finances to S**T, they decide to get married... Firstly... a house... most people unless born with a golden laddle will buy a HDB.... But they are not cheap hor. And unless daddy and or mommy dearest want to help you pay..(which is another bloody issue I want to bring up... how can a guy who is already 20-30yr old still be beggin from his parents.... Even he guy who drove and killed other people... I am sure that the cars were paid for by their parents.... Imagine... a car is at least 5k in deposit.... where a young punk got so much money?) (Parents.... u disgust me) So they have to wait a few years to cough up enough for a downpayment for the hdb.... and what about the weddin dinner?? Nowadays the dinners also not cheap... though the people who come are getting cheaper... and also they are now doggy bagging the food as we are gobbling it down... I swear!!! A fren told me that he saw a couple putting some stuff into container to bring home to their children... bloody hell!!! Why spoil your children so much and of course this is not fair to those who paid their red packet money and want to eat their fir share.... Or even those cheapo nana who did not give a fantastic ang pow and still hope for a "fair share"
So now after getting married... strapped with house loan... car loan (if you are not sponging off yor parents) and study loan (because if you were not a graduate... u can dream of getting married) and whatever loan you have.... You are stuck in a shit job with a shit boss (lets face it... people always think that they are so smart because they are at the top and also because they all think they deserve to be on top)the guy is now feeling a lot of stress... unless he is sponging off his parents still lah....(The reason why I am harpin on this point is because there are still a lot of these guys AROUND!!!)
After marriage... comes the need to entertain clients, to go out drinking...to be with buddies and so on.... and no time for the char bor.... Of course lah... sex was only while dating.... after marriage.... what sex? Too busy lah...
But actually to be fair.... it is also too expensive and too stupid a venture... After all... going to see a gyne will cost money.... giving birth will cost money.... and even after that money will be spent on the child.... and guess what.... after the child grows up.... he will sponge on u like u sponged on your parents..... want children???? NO WAY???? Buy monkey better....!!!!
So u see.... ladies and gentlemen.... it is simple.... our way of lfe has made it almost impossible to get married and to have babies.... It is not only up to the gahmen.. but it is also up to the individual. Are we going to "stand up" and "deliver" for our country? I don think so.......
Cheers and peace out!!!
