Brag It Up

Is it a trend among youngsters nowadays? Holy crap, I just said that. I’m not old! I’m still an adolescent! :P

Ok on a serious note, it seems to me that kids , and some folks a little younger than my current age, seem to like to brag about something new in their lives. In the old days, it used to be money, cars, chicks, jewelry, that stuff. But now, sex is included.

Owh and don’t be mistaken either, its not just the men are bragging about this, the women are doing so too. Wait, scrap that. Due to their  "immaturity", I’ll refer them as boys and girls. The point here is, what’s there to brag?

If ur a muslim, u wud noe well enough that this matter is a serious. Sex before marriage could really land u in a whole lot of fire, from every part of the world and beyond. For other races, well, sexual gratification is in ur own mind and you have to discover it yourself why sex is still needed to be bragged. I even feel that at a certain extent, boys and girls could be shouting "Oy orang2 kampung! Aku baru jer main ngan pompuan/laki secara haram!"

Ah, the classic rendition of I got laid in malay. I wonder how does the language say it. So, what are we going to do? In bolehland, we blame porn. No kidding. Then peer pressure, then bla bla bla. The reality here is, what’s going on in the mind of that person? If the person was sane enough to think of the proceedings in life, sex wouldn’t have to be bragged about. Its intimate, a gift that God provided to all of us to share it with that special someone, and that means the partner that you wedded with.

It wouldn’t be awkward if a married couple announced to themselves that the other just got laid, cuz its intimacy. its a story that both partners can share and smile about. but the weird part is, it goes horribly wrong when u tell ur friends that. Including how detailed u did it. I remember in my religion that telling others about u having sex with ur husband or wife is already sinful enough. So, the question here still stands as why brag?

Is it because you did the impossible and defied God? Is it because you could be more popular now after knowing you’re not a virgin? Is it because you get money and respect out of the brag? Or just idle and small talk?

Whatever these small boys and girls do, well, they had better find a reason why fast. Immaturity is not ur excuse to say u did it, but rather ur lack of thinking and rationality brings this matter bigger. Those who’ve done it have probably lost the single one chance to see for urself how intimate one night would’ve been, when you both don’t know how it felt to be together for the first time on that very first night.

Put ur thinking caps on people.

Much Love, Azlil.Ash
