Common TraitsWhat are the common traits of a ‘Singapore Sarong Party Girl’? Well, again there is no official definition, but here is my stab at this. The typical SPG is an outspoken Singaporean woman in her late twenties. She may or may not be highly educated (holds a university degree), and is an open-minded person.
Most likely, she is not tied down by traditional values and hates her local family members to control her. She loves to talk about ‘Caucasian’ things like the Sistine Chapel, the Grand Canyon, or the Swiss Alps. She loves to talk to Caucasian men and find them extremely appealing. When a local Chinese man and a Caucasian is in front of her, she’d prefer to talk to the Caucasian. Perhaps the most important characteristic of an ‘SPG’ is the fact that she hopes to marry a Caucasian and leave the trappings of this ‘boring’ Singaporean life behind. She hopes she can move to some ‘modern and westernized’ city like London or New York. She hopes she can one day come back from those places and ‘show off’ her Caucasian lifestyle to the sad sods who are still ‘stuck’ in Singaporean and Asian life. In Pop CultureThe ‘Singapore Sarong Party Girl’ has been the topic of many local skits and plays. You’ll be surprised at how many Singaporeans give a wry smile when you speak of this term.If you watch a local Singaporean film or play, the ‘SPG’ will appear very often and the audience tends to give knowing looks and smiles. That being said, be careful how you address a Singaporean girl (especially the highly educated ones) – they don’t like being addressed as a ‘Singapore Sarong Party Girl’. ConclusionI hope this short article has given you some solid insight into what constitutes a ‘Singapore Sarong Party Girl’. If you’re in a club or pub you will usually be able to spot such women – then you’ll know what I mean. Happy travels!Related ArticlesYou may also wish to read the following related articles:
