Once, there is this happily married couple. They have two beautiful daughters. But the husband ain't quite happy.

He always wanted a boy.

So he and his wife worked hard every night and it seems God had answered their prayers. A boy was conceived!

The husband was had this overwhelming urge to see the baby boy first hand, therefore he rushed to the nursing room, beaming with joy.

He entered the room, held the baby and his joy died. To his ultimate disgust, the baby was ugly beyond words.
In fury, he asked his wife if she has been sleeping around with another man. His wife smiled and replied,

"No John. Not this time."

I told this joke to my aunt today over dinner in KFC in jb. Her reply was, "hen hao xiao meh? (means "very funny meh?")"
I was like... er... okae...

But now, thinking back, her reply kinda make me think and it ties in alot of things i'm seeing.

Years back, this kind of act is regarded as some sort of taboo, or a forbidden act (I mean adultery, not cracking jokes in front of your aunt.) But now, people like me are treating this as a joke and not taking it seriously. People joke about this nowadays and i'm wondering why. You see, looking back ten years ago, people wouldn't even wanna joke bout it due to its sensitivity. My aunt, being conservative and conventional wouldn't have guessed it that the women has indeed been sleeping around. But people of my age or within my generation would probably get it right away because it so prevalent nowadays.

Why is commitment a thing of the past?

That's a rude awkening for me. Though i know its happening.

Peeps, stop and take a look at what the world is coming to.
