i am hungry

gil grissom once said "people often confuse an obsession with sexuality with an obsession with sex"....
first of all...being able to quote gil grissom who's a fictional character in a dying series just goes to show how much of a nerd i am...
but if you think about it...it does ring true...

we often assume that trans-gendered people are such because they have an obsession with sex....
when in fact they are such 'just because'....
we all watch the same tv shows...we all see the same things on the streets....
trans-gendered people soliciting on the road sides....
trans-gendered people becoming show girls...
trans-gendered people on display in a semi-circus act...
we assume that they're all like that when in fact its just the minority...

sometimes i feel sorry for those people...
it's not easy for them to be able to go out in public and not be afraid...
they are mocked...insulted...made fun of....
but still there are those who can hold their head up and persevere...
i have a new found respect for them...
in the end...they are still human...they might be confused...but who isn't....

anyway....i've been having a blast in KL....
eating all the good food before i leave tomorrow....
i notice i eat more during the 2 days that i'm here than i do in a week in singapore...
hence...i will award malaysia with another 20 points...cause food is definitely a major plus...

by the way...
'stay' is one mind fuck of a movie...


current score: singapore 40 malaysia 70
