Thanks COMF. I’ve never heard of that before. Yep-
you’re spot on.
And you’re quite right. Online, they are bold and rude. In real
life, they are skinny boys easily intimidated.
Having said that, I do find that does help make Singapore a
safer place. Compare that to Western countries where white dudes
get pissed and rowdy and you start to feel nervous when you walk by
a poorly lit area at night. I mean, No one in their right mind
would take their family with kids on a train at midnight in a city
in a western country. You’d expose the kids to druggies, alcos, and
there’s a pretty good chance of being mugged, raped and killed.
It’s not an issue in Singapore.
So in the greater scheme of things, I think SG guys should stay
“meek as pussies”.
You've put it in good perspective.
In my experience, what you said is quite true in many Western
capitals - of drunkards roaming the streets at night, uninhibited
behaviour and fights, and so on. No doubt, S'pore streets are
relatively a good deal safer at night. As for your final sentence,
I can't quite agree nor disagree.
