This is a seriously IRRITATING phenomenon that started happening
in recent years (maybe due to the influx of PRCs in Sg).
Basically, any 100% Singaporean female who happens to be:
- taller than 165 cm
- fair
- not typical spaghetti+jeans style
gets mistaken for a PRC.
And how do u know someone is mistaking u for a PRC?
- super sleazy taxi drivers who keep asking u where u from, even
when u've repeated a gazillion times u r born n bred in choa chu
kang
- aunties always staring at u like u killed their whole
families
- go hawker centre n the uncles/aunties shout at u with very
gei(fake) or forced mandarin "ni yao sherrrrr merrrrrrr?"
- go takashimaya n sometimes salesgals will whisper amongst
themselves "aiyer, china girl also know how to shop here ah?
hahaha....."
Wah lao, really kao bei kao bu kanasai man!! This is my country too
ok! I m 4th generation peranakan somemore.
If u r a Singaporean guy n this happens to ur mother, wife or
sister juz coz' they happen to not look typically S'porean, how
would u feel?
Anyone here ever had similar experiences?
