the mass media troubles me here. instead of practising authentic self-censorship like how proper journos are supposed to do, the media go all out. it's like a 4 year old giving you a play by play of how his first dump went.
and that's who im concerned about. the kids.
The Star is pretty much exposed to the general public. (no, contrary to popular belief, they don't ask you for your IC when you try to buy one. and no, there are no underaged kids who try to buy one wearing a fake moustache.) the public can get one anytime, anyplace, anywhere. just like a condom.
what concerns me is a certain politician's on going trial. nope, it's not CBT, it's not bribery, it's not burglary, it's not toilet pee. it's sodomy! it can get pretty messy. and believe me, it has. the 'victim', a certain unknown junkie/hobo/highschool dropout suddenly decided he was tired of walking through main doors and wanted to try the backdoor instead. with the premier's permission, of course.
and the newspapers are having a field day. the articles are priceless. but what im saying is, would you really want your kids exposed to who rinsed his anus when and who didn't take a shit for god knows how long? how about how it happened? who wore a towel and who was told to have a shower to relax or who reported back to work the day after the alleged 'invasion', wearing a happy (read: satisfied) smirk on his mug?
now i don't want to speculate on who's the guilty party here. all i know is that i have a heart for the children for their sake. spare them the agony and awkward questions. i'm not complaining about the sordid details. give me sodomy any day! but no boy scout or girl guide should be exposed to this trash of reporting.
i really would like to know what the reporters say when their kid asks the golden question, "mommy, what is anal?"
