Sex And The Little India City
June 7, 2008 12:32 pm Joe And Petrina's BlogPicture this:
2 chinese girls, 2 half Indian girls dressed to the nines in the middle of Little India, swapping sex stories and cackling like banshees in a family restaurant…Somewhere between the mutton briyani and the nicely decorated pappadum (yes I’ve never seen the humble ol’pappadum assessorized!) someone blurted out, ‘You’re so Charlotte York’. (played by Kristin Davis in Sex And The City)
Besides our folliclly challenged husbands, apparently I’m also virtuous, always positive and sweet etc…
And then it occurred to me that it wasn’t too long ago that I was so channelling a Carrie Bradshaw. Gone are the days of pondering over the lingering love with Big whilst trying to move on with other men. More importantly, gone also are the days when I worshipped her clothes and style. (What’s with the blue bird in hair?? I can think of some Hokkien Words that are..never mind)
Sometime later, whilst wrapping palik paneer in my garlic naan, we got to dissecting the concept of sluts. My theory (and this is really not for everyone) is that ALL of us have/had a slut phase. It can happen when you’re between long-term relationships or if you’re a real slut, ALL the time. It’s a time of experimentation, a time of discovery and also on hindsight a rather stupid thing to do. But one thing’s for sure, just because you HAD a slut phase, does not make you A SLUT. (unless of course, you’re still in it)
Now that my whoring days are well and truly OVER (sigh) I can only live vicariously through my still single but somehow not so slutty friends. At the end of it all, everyone’s still looking for love even if it’s in all the wrong places. For me, I’m quite happy being settled in a loving, long-lusting relationship with my baldy, and we don’t need to go to Little India to look for spice either, at least for now!
Share with us your slut phase theories!

Petrina, in case you’re feeling ignored, I felt someone should answer and just let you know that it’s not that no one wants to answer you but with most of us still reeling in shock, it’s hard to come up with any theory not related to the biggest news in Singapore in the last week (I can’t think of anything more memorable in Singapore last week, can you?).
Anyway, you’re right – the best of us will admit to having that shocking-pink-tube-top-with-thigh-high-boots side of us. It’s a question of action – to what degree do we act on our impulses. That’s why most of us buy the clothes/shoes that we don’t wear when the euphoria of that shopping trip has worn off but we don’t want to return it – because you just never know when it might be just the right thing to wear : )
