The day before yesterday I posted "Up, Even, Down", a topic which came about during a coffeeshop talk I had with my partner earlier that day. I raised the grim prospect of our girls opting to delay, or even not to marry at all.
So I suppose it is only fair that I brighten things up a bit by posting something in the opposite direction today...
For some time now, I've realised that some of our women married more than once. Now probably this has a lot to do with taking after Hollywood celebrities. Even a model of a "perfect girl" like Britney Spears who pledged to remain a virgin until she's married, ended up with 2 divorces — so far. I bet it's just a matter of time before the next husband comes along.
Imagine a Malaysian woman marrying more than 3 times in her lifetime. That would be something, huh? In fact, that would be rare! That's why I was attracted to the story about a woman who was married 13 times — so far. I am sure even Elizabeth Taylor would be impressed with this record.
But 13 is such an unlucky number for some people. Perhaps the granny should consider rounding up the figure to 15? And that would guarantee her a place in the Malaysian Book of Records, I'm sure... and it will be a record that will remain unbroken for a very long time to come...
