was shocked at an article in today's straits times

as usual, i sat down at my table to have my caffeine fix when i flipped thru the papers..
first page on the HOME segment

this is the title

JC BOY COMMIT SUICIDE, CONVINCED PRIVATE PARTS DEEM TO SMALL

i nearly fell from my chair

WTH was tat?

commit suicide becoz of tat?

he's from a reputable JC, has a gf and supportin mum who were assurin him abt his "inadequacy"

he had such a bright future ahead of him

his mum brought him to see the doc who said his is normal asian size..

i told my mum abt this piece of news

she was sayin," what is he comparin himself to? ang moh? so long for wat?"

-_-"

sigh ..

i tink there's not enough exposure to sex education here

anythin to do with sex is so hushed up, taboo.. forbidden

u cant always hide things from youngsters

the more the topic of sex is deem taboo.. the more they are curious abt it

u cant stop youngsters from havin sex

no matter how intensive the sex education talks u made them sit through are..

there's always a small percentage that same may go "astray"

so i always think its better to educate on
"ABSTINENCE" AND "PROTECTION-SAFE SEX"

well .. i dunno wat that JC guy was thinkin abt

how he knew tat his was small ?

i have a feelin its coz his friends somehow saw it and teased him about it ..

i mean.. how he know his is small until he compared to others right?

gosh.. guys.. sizes=ego?

the mind is such a powerful tool

i tink he doesnt really wan to end his life tat way .. must be some frequent
"reminders" from others that made him be so conscious of his physical outlook

sigh ...

i feel sad for his gf and mum who had been so supportive..

i hope the ppl who teased him ..if there are any..
reflect on wat they did to him ..

peer pressure .. takes its toll ..
