FirePig SG

guys who depend on such modules to get to know more gals are pathetic.

Girls who join this module are desperados.

Gackt247 SG

sbst275 SG

BenBenDeZhu SG

i think its dumb and misleading to teach students about relationships n stuff. and SDU is in it, so i have to question the objectives of the module. i see the gal commenting abt the 5 secs thing n i start to think its crap already

sbst275 SG

actually love and sexuality are valid university courses ah.

I think the course itself is good - it is rather the CONTENT that should be modified into a higher tone.

For example - incorporate counselling elements, psychological studies of differences between men and women, etc.

too into getting ppl hitched liao..

yeah, gotta be more comprehensive

"My teacher said if a guy looks into my eyes for more than five seconds, it could mean that he is attracted to me and I stand a chance," 18-year-old student Isabel Seet was quoted as saying by the local Straits Times newspaper.

Dun think they're content w/ just introducing to 2 poly... I bet they wanna intro to the other 3 poly and probably the uni in no time

Before you know it, these 'graduates' will be asked to blog their dating and married lives and do some govt-accredited 'Dating / Marriage Audit' to look out for KPI's (Key Performance Indicators). And then, there might be a 'Productivity Audit' to see how many eggs the couples managed to hatch!

Very soon, a documentary might be produced on how successful the govt initiatives turned out to be.

Spooky... it would be like watching a documentary in Animal Planet where the Director of some Zoo and his staff talk about introducing potential mates to each other, successful coupling, and then how the zoo babies were born and all... Desmond Morris might want to base his next book on Singapore!

some guys could just be talking to the girl's chest

sbst275 SG

to make it scary, they ppl aren't from NP or SP or SDU.. they're from 'accredited' organisation by SDU to give talks on family and relationship
