Alright, thats a Malay word meaning loathe - with only 1 H!
(Remember...this is MY distorted view..)
Stereotyping divorcees and spinsters is really so very common here. The female divorcees (MJs -Mak Janda as opposed to Anak Dara - Young Virgin/Maiden, well at least thats what I think!) are always man-hunting and hungry for sex ALL THE TIME! An old friend is being harrassed by her brother in law whom she looked up to as her own brother ever since he married her sister. Since her divorce, D started. Anyway, lets drop the gross details and skip to the part where he actually 'proposed' a sexual rendezvous. Outercourse is good enough! Ohh, and added "Im sure you want it too.."
Its true. There are some MJs who just cant live without men. Thereve been days when MJs feel alone and needing companionship. Most definitely. But we dont just say yes to any Tom Dick and Harrys indecent proposal!
Same goes to Andartu, the Spinsters..not all of them are picky when it comes to having/starting a relationship. Then again, arent we all?
Andartu are usually labelled as.. fussy. And overly sensitive. My own experience, I was accused of being selfish - she thought I wasnt listening when she told me about her whirlwind love-hate, on again- off again relationship with her romeo boyfriend. AND why she ran away from home because of her dad....!
I wasnt listening, she said!
Soooo, menyampah right? That theres an afflicting truth in the stereotyping of Mak Janda and Andartu..
