i did consider that we ought to, one of us, send a letter to ST. consider we obviously have strong views about the issue.
but then when the thought of editing my words and carefully shaping them comes, i get lazy. and apathetic. and... scared? i don't think i'd be brave enough to write a scathing letter to the forum about it.
atleast i'd have to work myself up to it, atleast on the premise that the likely cause of apathy among all singaporeans is fear of putting themselves out there especially in defence of a controversial cause. like "would i be branded homosexual myself?" "would i get branded a pinko-liberal, badforthekids type of thing?"
strange, though, isn't it? we're all straight (i think) and yet we have such strong opinions.
i will try and get off my lazy ass and write something and not make excuses like Common Tests! because otherwise the controversy will die. i don't even know how sensible half the stuff i've said is. feels more like vehement defence which is slightly irrational in its own way. anybody want to assist me?
i'm being such a WIMP.
