The Star : Something to ponder

Monday January 5, 2009
The Star highlighted "Tudung-clad teens who are hooked on sex"

A GROUP of Muslim tudung-clad girls were not ashamed to say they were no longer virgins, with some admitting they became pregnant at 15, Metro Ahad reported.
Some even said they lost their virginity at the age of 10, while others claimed they had multiple sex partners.
They also told Metro Ahad they would ostracise schoolmates who were still virgins.
A 15-year-old from Johor told the paper she first had sex with her boyfriend when in Year Five and was now “addicted to sex.”


Shouldn't it be just "Teen addicted to sex?"
Go interview some other teens not in tudung, i.e the male ones. Do you think only females lose their virginity? This coming from a newspaper is simply astonishing. The papers forgotten to see the "Other Perspective" of a story.

Also, when did a tudung become a chastity belt for ladies? It's wrong to commit sex (read, statutory rape of a minor), but hey, so does smoking in walkways of malls and restaurants. It's worrying because these taboos happens. Remember the "bohsia" girls? Remember the grandma who was fined for smoking in a coffee shop?

This news is like reporting "traffic jam in KL yesterday". Looks it happens and it will always happen. If the paper reads: " teen not addicted to sex" now, that's news! The last time I checked it's uncle and aunties addicted to sex too. That's why they invented Viagra rite?
