Bras: Supporting Breasts Or Restraining Women

Image
I am not one of the extremists who advocates for women to stop shaving and burning bras. However, lately, I've been exploring a lot of new ideas, and I start wondering why is it that women have to wear bras all the time. Frankly, and I'm sure most women would agree with me, bras are very uncomfortable. The best part of coming back home is taking off my bra. But since it's so uncomfortable, why do we keep on doing it to ourselves?

50 Shades of BSDM

The movie "50 shades of Grey" hit theater yesterday. Due to the nature of the film, it's banned in my country, so obviously, I haven't seen the movie yet. However, I have read the books, or at least, I tried to read the books. I could only go about halfway through the first book. That's how much I despised it. I am curious about the movie, though. If the books were so awful, the movie surely can't get any worse, right?

Valentine's Day: Love, Romance, Rape or Culture-Violation

Image via hercampus.com Love is in the air. It's that time again -- it's Valentine's Day, also known as Saint Valentine's Day or the Feast of Saint Valentine. I never intended on writing this post at all until the controversies revolving around this celebration that arose several days ago. I'm all up for love, so I love Valentine's Day. It's a rosy day filled with all sorts of cheesy romantic stuff. However, Cambodia has somehow condemned this celebration.
