Women: Very Vicious
Filed under Being a Woman
This was taken at the AIESEC Alumni Dinner last Saturday. Over a 100 ex-AIESECers went, which was a good increase in number from last year's Dinner. They're now charging RM150 for a life-time membership, and I'm seriously considering that. But that is not the point of this post.
The point is the reaction of the women after photos are taken. Okay, include the before. It goes something like this.
Girl 1: Can you take my photo please?
Guy: Ok. Here?
Girl 1: Yeah.
Guy: Ready?
Girl 1: Wait wait, okay. Don't make me look fat yah.
Guy: Okay. Ready?
Girl 1: Wait wait. That's my friend…. (to Girl 2) Come come, take photo!
Girl 2: Oh, okay.
Both girls will pose, the guy will wait for the girls to get ready.
Guy: Ready?
Girl 1: Ok.
Girl 2: Don't make me look fat yeah?
Guy: Ok? One, two… *snap*. Okay. I'll take another one…
Girl 1: Quick lah!!! My jaws aching already.
Girl 2: What's taking so long?
Guy: One, two… *snap*. Done! Take a look and see.
The girls will take the camera, look at the preview screen, and usually, usually yeah, this line will be blurted out.
'Yeeeeee! I look so fat.'
And then the guy will usually, usually say,
'No? Ok what. I think you look great.'
And then the girls will 'shyly' giggle and 'blush'.
I'll be dead honest and say that this is actually, 'FISHING FOR COMPLIMENTS.'
And it usually works.

hehe..then the girls should meet me..I normally just shrug my shoulders in a “that’s life” or “hey, if you say so” way.

Sometimes honesty is not the best policy. How about, ‘you are the right size for me”.
Naughty?

I see and meet people with physical disabilities very often. They are normal to me. Therefore… you are in a different scale all together.

What happens if someone actually says “well, I don’t know…” and gives you that one of a kind look?

You deserve a better cameraman with better skill and a better camera.

Lol. Quite true yeahh…only in my case, I tend to take a lot of stupid pics or candid pics. No point in saying ‘Eee…I look fat’ when the first thing that comes to mind when you look at it is “WTF?? You look like a f***ing moron here. What the HELL were you guys doing?????” Heh.
