My Boyfriend Is a Better Person Than I Am

He’s the good person — and I’m happy enough to be good for him — The moment I confessed my love to my boyfriend was the moment when I told him I could not be seeing him again. I had just thrown away the pile of crumpled tissues that was slowly forming a molehill on my bedside table. I said to myself in the mirror…

Why We Shouldn’t Say “Men Are Trash” — A Radical Feminist Perspective

No, it’s not because it’s “not all men” — “The personal is political,” Carol Hanisch wrote, in challenge to nuclear family values. This phrase has later broadened its applications to being used on topics regarding abortion, domestic abuse, spousal rape, and women’s sexual liberation. “Revolution does not begin in the streets. Revolution begins in the head, and in the…

Why Modern Dating Sucks–Even as a Conventionally Attractive Woman

Please love me unconditionally (for more than my size two body) — “I can’t provide that sort of unconditional love for you. You’re looking for a father, not a boyfriend,” my ex told me. I have a bad habit of always asking questions I know the answer to, because I like being proven right, no matter how hurtful the answer is. I’d…

It’s Not My Job to Convince You That Being Bigoted Is Wrong

Yes, I am unwilling to have a “rational discussion” over your opinions — Often, I debate men who hold sexist/racist/homophobic views, and they expect me to prove them wrong and have a “rational discussion” about their opinions. But I’m frankly tired of their expectation that I should be the one to put in the hard work to “enlighten” them about why their behaviour…

Talking to People Didn’t Save Me From Loneliness — Writing Did

I have grown adjusted to my maladjustment — Loneliness is a curious thing. You can go to social event after social event and still feel lonely by the end of it all. No amount of party invitations can cure the feeling that has been gnawing at me for longer than I can remember. When people think of someone…

Daoism Explained — and Why It Is Unapplicable for Most People

How a philosophy of living a simple life turns out to be a philosophy for the privileged — Daoist philosophers like Laozi and Zhuangzi advocated being like an uncarved block of wood (pu) and avoiding entanglements in society and mundane affairs. …

Proteins from plants and microorganisms help commercialize cell-based meat

Cell-based meats are becoming more economically viable — Cell-based meat is made by growing animal cells in a bioreactor, so meats can be sourced without any animals having to be killed. The research and development side of the cell-based meat industry is already advanced, as knowledge from the field of regenerative medicine can also be applied to cell-cultured…

‘Lab-grown’ Meat: More Natural Than Normal Meat?

How the unnatural production of conventional meats paves a way for healthier scientifically-driven alternatives — The Covid-19 outbreak has brought more attention to the risk of zoonotic diseases. Cramming animals in tight living spaces significantly contributes to the rise of food-borne illness and zoonotic disease. Antibiotics used to maintain livestock also give rise to antibiotic resistance, further exacerbating the risks of uncontrolled zoonotic disease outbreaks.

When He Says He Likes You Because You Are “Mature for Your Age”

My crush wanted to have sex with me — but I was 15 and he was in college — It is surprisingly hard for me to write this when I no longer feel anything. It began during one rather uneventful night several years ago, when the clock struck twelve exactly. …

Can We Change Ourselves Through Our Choices?

Or do our choices simply reinforce who we already are? — In her TED Talk, “How to make hard choices”, Ruth Chang argued that we make hard choices not by objectively weighing all the reasons given to us by the societal expectations of what is “rational”, but by making reasons for ourselves. She…
