It's a damn cold night...

Last week today, I was freezing to death in LT8.


I turned to Samantha and asked, "Can I borrow your jacket?"

"No," she said.

She wasn't wearing it.


I turned to Janice. "Can I borrow your jacket?"

"You're not going to fit in it," she said.

"I just need to cover my arms." I replied.

She decided to put on the jacket instead.


Xinyi came in.

"Do you have a jacket?" I asked.

"Yes why?"

"Can I borrow it? My hands are really cold."

"No."


I went back to Samantha.

"You just bought a Psychology Society T-Shirt. Can I please borrow it?"

"No."

"But why? You're not even using it now," I pleaded.

"Because you're a guy."


This week today, I brought my own jacket.


Sometimes, even guys needs some warmth and love.

  1. Why can't girls share jackets with guys?!

  2. You ask me, I ask who?

    But I'm a little sad. After giving up most of their privileges to the feminist movement, men suddenly realise the feminist were not just about to stop at equality.

    But it's already too late.

  4. It's something like, if the girls really treat me as an equal, why won't they share with me their jackets or extra t-shirts on gender grounds?

    I hope so too...

  5. Maybe they don't share their clothing articles in general? Or (and I am sometimes guilty of this too) we don't let it to people whom we don't think smell nice? I don't know, all our noses are different so we can smell some people and not others. and we leave scents on clothes. so, yea..

  6. That actually makes sense. I remember a t-shirt that said:

    "Boys are smelly. Throw rocks at them."

  7. um okay my view: I wouldn't lend my jacket to a guy (unless I'm really, really, really close to him) because one, it's too small, and two, it's a little intimate. I don't think it's so much of the equality thing.

  8. For one, I qualified that I just wanted to cover my arms.

    For two, I didn't realise that. No wonder they responded in the same way as the girls who i asked if they would marry me.

    So is the "I" Johnny or Mel?
