| Is it true that having more babies is perceived as being more virile? More manly? |
In attempting to write this entry, I scratched my head, my chin, and a few other bodily parts, trying hard to re-call at what age did I first understood about the 'Birds and the Bees!' I could not. However I recalled that at some early phase in my life, I was made to believe that 'babies' actually came out of bamboo plants. It was however only for a short period, for very soon after, I was told about the 'Birds and the Bees' by the same person who came up with the 'Anak Buluh Betong story'.
So from very early age, I was told, people get married to produce babies!
