Wives paying 'pillow money' to maids is not unheard of in these parts. !! is that true? huh. wow. I find that hard to believe (not dissing what you said) - I'd think it's more common in the past, as divorces and women-emancipation etc are on the rise now? What the eye doesn't see, the heart doesn't...

hahaha! :D why do you all think that I'm a wife with children and that my husband is sleeping with my maid?! 1. I am not married, 2. I have no children, 3. I do not have a maid. I'm not asking this for myself. I've heard two - dare I say it? - australian men saying that they're sleeping with their m...

That wouldn't be a wind-up. That can be documented with facts in studies. You are starting a topic on what sounds like hear-say evidence. What we are giving you in a round about way are variables of the same problem. What might cause it, how some deal with it and generally we are astonished at the ...

Personally i dont see any issues with your post but it's not for me to say. thats what moderators are for. And they do their job ever so diligently . . . But no, I agree with you. Though this is clearly a wind-up the topic shouldn't be taboo. It's sounds like one of those, I have a friend...... I w...

Scums are scums, I dont think hiring a prostitute will be any better, if that was the case, then arguably, the scum could pay the maid a sum of money for compensation to curb his sexual tensions / needs. And, maybe,just maybe, the wife knows about it, And "might" understand his sexual urges and des...

what about swapping maids with your mates? that way, both 1) and 2) are in the bag, and the situation might be easier to defuse should something go wrong down the road, and perhaps less humiliation for the wife. tongue-in-cheek too. Are you for real? :???: You would be surprised at the things women ...

Can anybody else hear the creeking of the thin ice nushk is on ...or is it just me :) please, with all sincerity, please let me know if I have done anything against the rules (or norms) here by posting what I did. is it a taboo topic? have I said anything wrong? let me know. I'm not a troll. I just...

then try asking a sensible question. Assuming that it was consensual then what difference does it make whether a scumbag sleeps with a maid, a CEO of a company or anyone else? what about the fact that the maid lives with the family? the maid takes care of the children? should anything go sour, woul...

the quarantine area is tons better than it used to be... for a large dog, it isn't that big a space but it is sufficient. you can opt for air-conditioned or non A/C rooms, (pay more for former), and each 'kennel' is shelthered - no worries about thunderstorms. good luck with bringing your dog over, ...

Thanks for the feedback! A star looks more of a sciencey place though if im not mistaken. I should have been more specific, I majored in Geography and I am currently a Project Coordinator for this International Conference in 2010. I was also wondering about whether places like unis give equal consi...

ha ha. love this topic. ok in all seriousness, jpatokal got it spot on. genes and food have got to do with it. most (at least, chinese) local girls have genes that predetermined them to be slim. out of these, some have genes that make them extremely thin - I know several girls like this and they hav...

lately, over drinks and such, I've had more and more first hand information that some (caucasian) expat men in singapore sleep with their maids! few questions: why sleep with their maids? I mean, these are married, with kids, -type of expat men. their wives live with them. sometimes, the wives and k...

You've clearly made a stupid mistake ...silly you. You've applied logic to your task 8-) and forgotten all the intermediate steps of position and self justification of your colleagues, not to mention allowing them time to claim brownie points for other peoples (your) ideas and hard work. Welcome to...
