No.3
“Knock- knock”, and
you guys go, “whose there”, then I reply, “Back”, and you guys go again, “back
who?” and with a charming smile on my face I go, “Sexy Back!”. I ‘m sure all
you ladies genuinely feel like smacking me across the face now, hey, a man can
try right. I am feeling a little cheeky as I write this edition of Le Guide, so
gentlemen please tolerate my writing for today and ladies, I hope you enjoy it.
So
we are already at number 3, time really flies at a few blinks of an eye; I am
just 97 women shy of my 100 goal. Slow and steady progress is nevertheless
progress I guess. For this edition I have genuinely found a very strong,
independent and charismatic character. Someone who has set vivid goals and is
ambitious at realizing them, briefly put No.3 is a woman of the 21 century.
As
usual before we get to the interview, let’s get to course of events that
eventually lead to me interviewing No.3. Honestly, No.3 was approached without
the intention of me going out for a scouting adventure, meaning that it was not
planned and it happened by chance. I was busy attending a really interesting talk
about the benefits of visual arts. I am going to go off topic a bit here; the
talk was a really good experience for me as it describes art as a language, I
would like to think of it as the language of the soul. The workshop that was
conducted at the talk was simple yet very deep; it really helps a person to
loosen up from the stresses of everyday life. I have not acquired permission from
the speaker of this talk to list it here, but if any of you are interested please
do contact me for any information on it. I strongly encourage people to join
and experience it, plus it’s not heavy on the wallet (RM 15.00).
Back
to No.3, So here I am at this talk dressed up rather messily wearing a white
shirt with an overall jacket and dark blue jeans paired with a pair of torn
sneakers (yeah, I sound like a broke ass). Adding on to that, I forgot to shave;
I look like Tom Hanks in Castaway basically. At the end of the talk I meet a
mutual acquaintance of mine and start causally chatting with her. She so
happens to be one of the facilitators of the talk. It suddenly occurs to me
that I have not interviewed anyone for the day and the opportunity seemed
present, thus I carried my scruffy self-up to her and said, “Darling will you
be my No.3”. She looks to me at disbelief and screams in ecstasy. I’m being cheeky;
sadly that was not how it went, I simply brought up my blog to her, explained the
idea behind it and politely asked her if I could steal her for 10mins. I made
her an offer she could not refuse (eyebrow roll).
The good news is she agreed to let me
pick at her thoughts. This interview went rather quickly as she was still on
the clock, I still managed to get some interesting perspectives. Now to the
part where all you boys are waiting for: - how No.3 looks? In my eyes No.3
poses this elegant oriental look. She has this sweet yet mischievous demeanour which
will get most guys hooked, that’s a guarantee. No.3 also has a rather sleek
fashion sense, a cross between office-formal and a casual funkiness or hip if I
am correct. Another thing that I can’t forget to mention is that No.3 has long
silky hair which I think a lot of women will envy. The best part about her
physically has to be her lean body and height (5ꞌ6"~5ꞌ7"). The
closest celebrity comparison that I think comes close to her is Rebecca Hall.
Besides having good physical attributes, No.3
gives out an aura of charisma and ambition. No.3 is of Malay ethnicity. I hope
my humble attempt at describing her was good enough for you guys. Let us leave
her physical nature at that and move on to the interview.
Q&A Session
1. What do you think about Malaysian men? Give
your personal opinion based on your experience thus far.
No.3 states that in her experience with
men in Malaysia, she finds that the majority of guys are arrogant. She thinks
that they have that so called show off attitude, being too cocky. She wants
guys to be more relaxed and a little less egoistic.
2.
Based on your experience do you
find it hard for guys to approach you?
She
finds it hard for guys to approach her because apparently guys claim that she
has a fierce look. I don’t think the word fierce is accurate, I personally
think it’s her strong charisma, as I said she is a strong woman. She also finds
herself not so feminine, which she thinks makes it hard for guys to approach
her. I bet there are guys who actually find this fact attractive. Maybe it just
takes a real man to woo her I guess.
3.
What’s your Ideal guy?
This strong charismatic woman wants a
man to be down to earth. She admires a man who makes her laugh, a person with a
good sense of humour. She also wants a man to be understanding and matured when
it comes to know her ideals. Those are some simple straight forward qualities,
guys pay attention.
4.
In your experience what is the
worst way has a guy approached you?
No.3 takes a deep breath and tells me
that she has had a few bitter experiences where she has been sexually harassed
and insulted, she tells me that some guys directly approach her by asking her
about her lady parts. Sometimes I really wonder if this actually works and
women actually entertain them. I can’t imagine myself walking up to a random
woman and saying, “hey lady niceeee bOObies”.
5.
What do you think will put you off
when a guy tries to approach you?
Body Odour! Guys every women I have so
far interviewed has stressed this importance. Save up and buy a bottle of
expensive cologne, it might make you get lucky.
6.
Do you find it offensive when guys
comment on how much makeup you wear?
No.3 has no comment on this question.
She says she doesn’t really wear makeup; she likes to go au-naturale. I look up
to her face and I agree with her, she wears no makeup, wow! She finds that
women are beautiful creatures and they should try too not over use on the
makeup. Too much makeup makes a women look plastic she says.
7.
In real world Malaysia how would
you like a guy to approach or court you?
No.3 wants a man to be simple. Nothing
beats simplicity, she does not want a guy to be too flattery. Be polite and be
a man (Russell Peters style).
8.
What kind of stereotype would you
like to change that you think Malaysian men have?
No.3 says that she is always a victim of
being stereotyped. She says guys always find her to be slutty because she is
not girly or feminine, because of this some guys also find her to be a rough
person (I think from a sexual point of view). She really wants this perspective
about women to change.
9.
The Stigma, when a guy sleeps around,
many social circles will consider him some kind of hero or respect his exploits
and he will still be accepted by the community. Women on the other hand will
get a baptism of fire from both sexes. In most cases the biggest critic will be
a woman. What is your say on this?
She finds this situation to be extremely
unfair as man and women are just mere reflections of each other in different
cloths. On the part where women are the biggest critic, she say that this
because of pure jealousy. I am impressed, what a simple and easy way to put it.
Bonus Question
What is your opinion on breast implants?
No.3 does not like that fact of women getting
implants for the sake of enhancing their beauty. She thinks that breast implants
take away the natural beauty of a woman and makes a woman look plastic. She
also highlights the fact that nothing beats the feel of the real thing, cheeky
cheeky.
Dear readers I hope you take in the views
and opinions of No.3. I feel that No.3 gave a rather matured response to all
the questions. I sincerely hope that some of her answers help give some of you
a better understanding on some social conflicts that men and women face every
day, with that said I would like to give a warm thank you to No.3 for taking
her precious time to let me interview her. As Jeremy Clarkson says, “On that
bombshell”, I would like to conclude this edition/episode of The Guide, I wish
all of you well and do stay tuned for the next personality. Teehee.
