"Muka baik macam Faris ni, cuba korang bayangkan ekspresi dia waktu dia tgh nak 'pancut'," kata seorang guru pelatih PLKN kepada pelatih² yg lain. I was 18.

Everybody laughed & sambung balik melucah. Aku hanya senyum senget.

Yes guys, sexual harassment happens to men as well.
But i couldnt really do anything (or maybe i didnt know what to do) but to move on. "Normal kot?" i said in my mind.

As a teenager, i was so desperate to be accepted as well. So yg mana yg salah tu, aku diamkan aje. Sbb kalau aku lawan, nnt aku takde kawan.
But either way, aku memang tak ramai kawan lelaki. Sama ada aku schizophrenic ataupun memang Mama Ayah dah ajar aku utk tidak melucah depan orang lain.

Satu benda yg aku bangga ttg Mama Ayah ialah, diorang tak buat lawak kotor depan anak². Kalau kami TERbuat,
diorang secara automatik akan marah.

As I was growing up in middle school and PLKN camp, memang ramai lelaki yg suka melucah. Dan disebabkan itu aku tak boleh nak ngam dengan majoriti boy's groups di situ.

Yg menyedihkan, ada juga kalangan org dewasa yg join sekaki melucah
dgn kawan² aku. I guess it's true for them. For adults to be close to youngsters, they have to join the youngsters in telling dirty jokes. Seronok, kononnya.

It was never fun to me. It was disgusting. My parents taught me that. "Maruah orang" kata mereka. Which is true.
Kau sanggup ke orang buat dirty jokes—suruh bayangkan adik lelaki/perempuan, abang/kakak, mak/abah kita telanjang or how big their breasts/how long their penis are?

Before you even joke about that, imagine yourselves if you heard someone joked the same thing on your loved ones.
It's not cool. Stop making dirty jokes cool. Stop normalising dirty conversations among boys AND girls.

It's not just about other people's dignity, but YOURS too. These dirty jokes would ruin your image as a good human being.

Nufsaid.
