After going to the gym for quite some time now (not religiously tho) there's one thing that really really bothers me.
Semi-naked girls.
That's right, girls wearing very little, some just in bras, some in undies, and some perfectly comfortable not wearing anything! You see them walking here and there, on the phone, drying their hair, applying makeup, changing out of their work clothes/sweaty workout clothes in the common changing area. It seems to me they are so used to being in a state of déshabillé in a roomful of strangers! Like a parade of flesh and each time i go there, i pray hard that i don't see some exotic boobs or disheveled cove. I just don't know where to look! I mean, it's rude to stare right??
No doubt we are in the twenty-first century and being naked in a private communal area may no longer seemed shocking to some but from where i come from, it is not something you would want to see very often. Being in Singapore for the last 15 years hadn't changed the way i feel about certain things too.
This afternoon, i saw this girl drawing her eyeliner in the most outrageous bright pink undie. So bright that i need a shade in case i'm blinded by it. Outrageous because there was an oval shape big gap at the back, from the waistband downwards to the top of her bum crack! (i leave you to your wildest imagination on how it might look like). Initially, i thought her undie was torn without her knowing, either that or she had a really rough nite. Then i realised it must be part of the design (or maybe the maker of this label didn't have enough fabric and he/she must have felt this is a clever way out of it!). Since it's not polite to stare at someone's bum, I had to look away quickly. So girls, if you want something like that, try google, suggested keywords: undies-hole-at-back-see-bum-crack; and who knows you might get it in time for Halloween!
Okay, maybe i'm too fashion-backward, but seriously, i don't know how to appreciate such a 'trendy' piece.
But despite people walking around in their birthday suits (or nearly), what upset me most is nobody wants to use the shower cubicle with a faulty door lock!!
What's wrong with them??
