My entire life I had heard stories about the beauty of Thai girls. From friends who had visited Thailand to travel guides, they all praised the beauty of Thai girls. But there was one thing that confused me; why do Thai girls put on so much white makeup if they are naturally so brown?

I had to find out.

When I finally visited Thailand for the first time, I was amazed at the beauty of the women there. Every time I looked around, I saw a woman with beautiful features. But what struck me the most was the white makeup that they all wore. It was as if they were trying to hide their natural skin tone and go for something lighter.

This made me wonder why Thai girls are so brown and yet they put on so much white makeup. I had heard that the sun in Thailand is particularly strong and that it could be quite damaging to the skin, but surely that didn’t explain why all Thai girls wear white makeup.

I decided to ask around and find out the real reason. Most of the people I talked to said that it was a matter of beauty standards. They said that in Thailand, the ideal of beauty is to be fair-skinned. This is why Thai girls put on white makeup and try to lighten their skin tone.

I also learned that this is not only a Thai phenomenon. Fair skin is considered to be more desirable in many Asian countries. It is seen as a sign of wealth and power. Darker skin tones are associated with manual labor and poverty.

So, it is no surprise that Thai girls put on white makeup in order to look lighter. It is a way for them to try and meet the beauty standards of their society.

However, it is important to note that this is not the only way that Thai girls express their beauty. Many Thai girls choose to embrace their natural skin tone and celebrate it. They use makeup to enhance their features and highlight their natural beauty.

I recently met a siao lang, her bf is from our neighbouring third-world country. After she got drunk she assumed that she was above others and she assumed that she has the authority to insult others just because she got drunk.

She showed off that her father used to be in a triad gang and claimed that she is rich and can behave like a spoiled piece of crap.

After she got drunk she started to scold people’s parents as if she is one class above an ordinary Singaporean.

We reminded her that she is just a piece of manure without her father’s illegal earnings.

Her chin was thicker than an extremely obese girl and thinks that she is a chio bu but with her behaviour, she is nothing but a rodent or a farm animal.

Imagine how embarrassing it will be that the boyfriend to apologize on behalf of her spoiled behaviour. It did not take long for her to reveal her true colours, after she got drunk she wanted to behave like a gangster just like her father so she can intimidate others and expect to get respect in return.

But all she gets is nothing but embarrassment and reflects her upbringing.

Money cannot buy class, no matter where you stay. Whether you stay in a private estate or public housing your behaviour shows alot about what kind of person you and your family are and your upbringing.

Whoever married you is cursed to suffer from your abusive behaviour.

Once again money cannot buy class, even if you are Cinderella the way you behave shows the difference between a princess and a wicked witch.

There is a Chinese saying, the dog will always eat shit, you definitely are the biggest piece of crap in Serangoon.

One piece of advice for you, your family earn illegal money you just stay at home la, don’t be an embarrassment. If you offend the wrong people, people will report your family to the Police.

MONEY CAN NOT BUY CLASS

Last night we were going about our regular programming of hanging on the couch, eating snacks and watching some tv before bed.

I reached over to hold his hand and it was incredibly clammy. I thought nothing of it really.

Then he pauses the show, gets up, throws his hand out and says “come on, it’s time” slightly confused, I get up and let him lead me. He takes me to another spot and say to “take a seat” I do and then he kneels down in front of me and says

“On this night that will never happen again (22/02/)

At this time that will happen again (22:22HRS)

Will you spend this life that will never happen again

Sharing with me this love that will never happen again”

Pulled out a ring and asked me to marry him

In my chocked up, tears steaming state, I said “yes!”

We shared so many salty kisses. It was the most beautifully intimate and thoughtful proposal I could’ve ever asked for. I love you so much!

For those upset by my title: the title was ambiguous for a reason. Crying doesn’t always imply sadness and if you’re upset that I tricked you or something because you wanted a sad story, you need to get over yourselves.

 As a young parent myself, I can relate first-hand to the difficulty of raising a child. It is a hard job and can involve a lot of tough decision-making, but it is also one of the most rewarding experiences.

Unfortunately, it seems that many young parents today are spoiling their kids much worse than their grandparents did.

When my grandparents were raising their kids, they were much stricter and more hands-off. They had certain expectations for their kids and these expectations were often enforced. If a child did something wrong, there were consequences that had to be faced. The children were expected to work hard in school and show respect to their elders. My grandparents understood that there was a lot of hard work and dedication that went into raising their kids.

In contrast, many young parents today are much more lenient when it comes to raising their kids. Instead of making sure their kids are doing their homework, they give them free reign to do whatever they want. Instead of having expectations for their children, they let them get away with anything and everything. Instead of having consequences for bad behavior, many young parents just give in and let their kids do whatever they want.

This lack of parental guidance does not prepare kids for the real world. Instead, it creates a sense of entitlement in which kids expect to get what they want without having to work for it. This can lead to a variety of problems, such as laziness, immaturity, and an inability to take responsibility for their actions.

It’s not just the parents who are to blame for this trend. Society has changed significantly since my grandparents were raising their kids. We now live in a world where technology has made things much easier and more convenient. We are always connected to the internet and have access to a seemingly infinite amount of information. This has made it easier for kids to get away with things and it has created a society where kids have more freedom than ever before.

In addition, there is a lot of pressure on parents to be perfect. We are constantly bombarded with images of perfect parents and perfect families. This can lead young parents to feel like they have to give in to their children’s demands in order to be seen as a good parent.

Overall, it is clear that young parents today are spoiling their kids far worse than their grandparents did. This is a serious problem that needs to be addressed. Parents need to be aware of the potential consequences of their actions and make sure that they are setting the right example for their kids. They need to set expectations, enforce them, and provide consequences when necessary.

It is also important for parents to remember that parenting is a difficult job and not one to be taken lightly. It is not easy to raise a child, but it is one of the most rewarding experiences. By taking a more hands-on approach, young parents can ensure that their kids are getting the guidance and support they need to become successful, responsible adults.

Tired

Just needed a place to rant and hear thoughts.

Being a mother is not easy, I know. However I’m not sure why recently I’m feeling more and more imbalance. I hv 2 kids – 3 yrs old and 3 months.

3 months – usually helper will take care. So I will take care the elder one.

Mother duties:

1. Work and earn money

2. Make milk

3. Shower for kid

4. Change diaper

5. Gobble down meals

6. Rushed shower

7. Make kid sleep

8. Express breastmilk for baby

9. Any other misc kids stuff to attend to

Father duties

1. Work and earn money

Wtf? Sometimes I will say a bit like I cannot hv a good sleep when sleeping with my elder one. Then my mil will shoot me and say “what do u expect when taking care of a child”.

Honestly I feel quite frustrated. 2nd child i had zero rest at all. Confinement 40 days I hv to recuperate, pump breastmilk, take care of newborn at night. Thankfully I hv my helper to take care newborn in the daytime.

My heart and soul feeling tired and not so positive anymore …

Here are what netizens think:

• idk why everyone in the comments isn’t addressing the main issue, which is: why isn’t your husband helping you??? i can’t imagine having to care for my child alone on top of work. my husband does most of the housework and a lot of the childcare over the weekends, and it really lightens my load (mostly mental). he’s even ok for me to take a weekend off to travel with my mom while he watches my 2yo son. we are in this together and we are partners. your kids are as much your husband’s responsibility as they are yours. please do have a good talk with him about this or even seek counseling if it’ll help. jiayou!! 

• Have a chat with your GP. Could it be post natal depression?

• I feel you. I have a 20months old and a 5 months old. Its not easy… tired is an understatement. i can only say , we will one day see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Should I marry my bf if i can’t stand his mom

I’ve been together with my bf for 5 years, we are both in our late twenties already. Recently we started discussing about settling down and getting a resale flat. I have doubts because the idea of having his mom as my MIL scares tf out of me.

His mom is a very snobbish person. Likes to think that just because she is educated she can can always make nasty remarks about other parents around her age. Once, I said hi to their neighbours and she was very unhappy about it. Told me that she doesn’t talk to them because the mom next door is “too aunty” for her. My bf mom are into high fashion, yup she’s those kind that will judge other moms based on what bags they carry. She even stopped playing mahjong with this new group of friends she made and her reason was “they speak mostly Chinese so I don’t like.” When she literally speak Chinese most of the time at home. I absolutely can’t stand her. Most of the time she treats me well so I just bear with that snobbish attitude of hers because I’ve no choice and in no position to call her out. There are a lot more snobbish remarks she made but I bet you can already imagine what kind of “atas” woman she is.

Honestly my biggest worry is that my bf mom will speak ill of my family if they were to meet one day. My parents are not as privileged growing up, they have low education and only speak Chinese and Hokkien at home. They can’t converse in English at all. My mom doesn’t carry designer bags like she does. My parents are extremely humble people. And I’m proud of my mom being the typical aunty, the ones she hate. Honestly I am mentally prepared for this day to come because I know it will. And I’m ready to go to war with this snobbish bitch if she talks shit about my family.

Should I talk to my bf? Or should I even continue this relationship? I’m afraid I will regret one day because I know I will definitely choose my family over him. I don’t want to put my bf in a difficult position.
