Furthermore...

The stupid Uniform comments by the Vice-President of the Islamic Students of Malaysia, Munirah Bahari has caused an uproar amongst students, teachers, parents and rapists alike.

A few other things I want to mention is that when Munirah gave those comments, I don't think she was lucid. Yesterday, I was thinking about those who were rape victims how they would feel if some woman told the that they probably suffered what they did because of School Uniforms.

Traumatised Victims are not one to cross. By suggesting that school Uniforms are the cause of rape and pre-marital sex, Munirah is almost belittling the rapists and rape victims alike. Crimes/"activities" are practically likened to dish-washing.

Plate gets dirty. You wash the plate.
You wear a school uniform. You get raped.

Her comments were also VERY demoralising for the female gender. She was practically blaming all females for the rape cases in Malaysia. Like I said, what about the role that men play in these cases?

There is a fire. You stick you hand into it. You get burned.
Whose fault is it? The fire or you?

Again, I bet the rape victims feel bad because of her comments because she's trying to say THEY ASKED FOR IT, SLUTS.

Ahhh, senseless woman. Makes me irritated just thinking about it. Anyway... I haven't seen a single Malaysian side with her.

They were Slammed.

Something must be seriously wrong with local men if the sight of girls in their school uniform turns them on, says Sisters in Islam.
Amen sistah. If you call our fugly Pinafores and shapeless Baju Kurungs Kinky, you are really really desperate.

Programme manager, Norhayati Kaprawi, describes claims made by National Islamic Students Association of Malaysia that the school uniform worn by girls at government schools “encouraged rape and pre-marital sex” as baseless.

“I totally disagree with the statement. What? Even wearing baju kurung is still not enough?” she asked.

“As for the white blouse being too transparent, Malay women who are in mourning wear white baju kurung. Even Umno women wear white baju kurung. So what is the issue?” she said when contacted Thursday.


Women’s Aid Organisation executive director Ivy Josiah said what was needed was ”a review of misguided beliefs about women's attire,” not a review of the uniform policy.

“Statistics and research has shown that all women – young, old, women clad in tudung (headscarf), miniskirts, even babies in diapers – have been victims of rape and sexual assault.

“It is entirely irresponsible for anyone to suggest the idea that rape is a result of attire. Rape is not about attire, it’s about power that perpetrators feel they have over their victims,” she pointed out.


Men’s Action Network Against Violence (man.v) member David Anthony said such statements stereotyped men as people who don’t see women as anything other than sex objects.

“It’s the wrong attitude ... it’s perversion,” he said.


Perversion you hear!!! [Perversion is also Daniel in a Pinafore.]

Teachers and students scoff at ‘baseless’ statement

“It would make them feel even more uncomfortable studying in our hot weather. And I have not heard of any complaint from my female schoolmates that their uniform (with the pinafore on) is transparent,” he said.
Give us Air-conditioning I say!!!!
Sam has over 600 pictures for all three Teacher Day Celebrations. Sifting through them...slowly.

Finite

[Updated]
Malaysian Newspapers are AT IT AGAIN.

School uniform sexy, says group.

KUALA LUMPUR: A Malaysian group condemned the uniform worn by girls at government schools, saying it encouraged rape [Fritzl's daughter was wearing a pinafore. Therefore he HAD to lock her up.] and pre-marital sex.

“The white blouse is too transparent for girls and it becomes a source of attraction,” [Wear BLACK la. Black is SO the new White] National Islamic Students Association of Malaysia vice-president Munirah Bahari said in a statement.

“It becomes a distraction to men, who are drawn to it, whether or not they like looking at it,” [Ya. It's like Witchcraft. You don't want to look also HAVE to look. There's a little voice in the pinafore that says "Oogle at me. Rape me." Like how Billy was drawn into the Landlady's House] she said, calling for a review of uniform policy so that it did not violate Islamic ideals.

In multicultural Malaysia, home to majority-Muslim Malays as well as ethnic Chinese and Indians [Glad they mentioned this. So multi-cultural. Why must we all comply with Islamic standards then?], female students at government schools have a choice of wearing a white blouse with a knee-length skirt or pinafore [Which is also... DAMN FUGLY. Luckily St Mary's has ALTERNATIVES].

They may also wear a “baju kurung” and a headscarf is optional for Malay students.

Munirah said that “covering up” according to Islamic precepts was important to fend off social ills, including “rape, sexual harassment and even premarital sex.” [Walking is also the ultimate prevention to car theft]

“This leads to babies born out of wedlock [Your daddy and I got married when we had you. We had you because...no we weren't in love. Must have been that blardy Pinafore I was wearing.] and, to an extent, even prostitution,” she said. [Yes. Sufiah Yusof wore the Msian Uniform. Thats why she, genius her, became a prostitute. I feel for heruniform]

“Decent clothes which are not revealing can prevent and protect women from any untoward situations,” she said, suggesting that girls wear a blouse of a different colour or with an undergarment. [Don't we ALREADY wear undergarments?!]

However, the girls themselves also came in for criticism, with the association saying that some used the white blouse to lure men. [I am wearing White. You should Assault me Now. It doesn't matter if I am just WALKING down the street, I'm a GIRL, wearing WHITE you see. It doesn't matter if you can or cannot control yourself. But I'M ASKING FOR IT BY WEARING WHITE.]

“This is the source of the problem, where we can see that schoolgirls themselves are capable of using this to attract men to them,” Munirah said.

“This could see them getting molested, having premarital sex and all sorts of things.” – AFP

[Yes. Rape me. I'm wearing a Pinafore]

HONESTLY. Why aren't they talking about EDUCATING all the GUYS on SELFCONTROL. What's point on blaming things like SCHOOL UNIFORMS for RAPE CASES.

This is beyond Unreasonable.

If a girl is a slut. It doesn't matter WHAT she's wearing. Because they tend to wear less ANYWAY. School uniforms indeed. *Mutter*

Musical Idols

Just watched American Idol.
I love Archuleta. He's so adorable.
But I think it was unfair to just condemn Cook that way especially at a time like this when there are so many many "Swing Voters".
Cook didn't do that badly. I think the second song was pretty catchy.
And we all know how influential the judges are.
Especially Simon.
Though, at this point, I don't really mind who wins or loses anymore.

MANCHESTER UNITED AGAINST CHELSEA.
At and Ungodly hour of Two.
How the hell am I supposed to watch!?
Sadness.
GO MU! =]

Played badminton on Monday with Vivian and Josh at Arena [Wah, expensivenyer]. Felt good to be playing again.
Or so I thought.
Went back to Vivians house and she became the first person apart from my dad and I to touch Miera.
My arm felt like crap the next day and we had to endure an entire day of rehearsals and performances at Crowne [More on that in another post later].
Played with Vivian, Charles and Kelvin today.
Arm is very crap.
Went back at 8.30 and Vivian became the first to see my mums new Innova. Which I still firmly believe is a very ugly car. No matter how comfortable it is.

Going to Dewan Perpaduan for MORE teachers Day celebrations tomorrow. Honestly, do we really need that many celebrations?
State level as yesterday. Divisional Level [I think] is tomorrow. School level is on Friday. Geeez!
When will it be Students day?

Sam is tired already.
Geylang si paku geylang....can't get it out of my head wtf AHHHHHHHHH.
