The 5 Golden Facts of Minah-ism.

minah
1) A Minah is only a Minah when she denies that she is one.
2) As long as you are a Malay girl, you're automatically a Minah.
3) A Minah is a true Minah if she likes to call other people Minah.
4) Minahs are not necessarily uneducated because they don't speak English, it's a preference.
5) Minah and Minahrep are entirely different things, do not confuse them.

The 5 Golden Facts of Minah-ism.
(I know in this entry it was 3 facts, but the definition of Minah has to be streamlined and expanded.)


1) A Minah is only a Minah when she denies that she is one.
Mentioned too many times in most of my entries, because Macam Pahamers need reminding. Yes Ms Macam Paham, you are a Minah too. Pls see point 2).

Please stop denying that you are not a Minah. Gigi kalo terselit belachan, takmo nak step makan cheese. Embrace the culture, don't kill your own race. You may want to refer to point 4) if you think that Minahs are scums of the universe and buat malu orang Melayu jer. Yang buat malu is actually kalo kau tak sedar diri yang kau tu siapa.


2) As long as you are a Malay girl, you're automatically a Minah.
Self-explanatory. If you like Mat Sallehs (read: Caucasian. re-read: Caucasian and Eurasian lain barang ok, pls jgn confuse), then itu kau punya seluar dalam. You can like other races for all we care, tapi kalau dah Melayu, by default Minah.

If you are insulted that you are labelled a Minah just because you are a Malay girl, then you should think twice about labelling that girl who sat across you in the train a Minah just because she dresses like what you think 'a Minah' dresses like. Who's labelling who now?

Which brings me to point 3).


3) A Minah is a true Minah if she likes to call other people Minah.
Besides denying that you are a Minah, and hoping that this will somewhat disassociate you with Minah-ism, you still like to call others Minah. Sorry my friend, this just makes you more Minah than ever.


4) Minahs are not necessarily uneducated because they don't speak English, it's a preference.
If reading my blog does not convince you that Minahs aren't always stupid bimbos, then I suggest that you get off your computer and make new friends. Lots of new friends because you need to shed that stereotype thinking that all Minahs are empty in their heads, finish formal education at ITE (which you probably think is the lowest type of tertiary education) and main aim is life is to kahwin and make babies.

Everything we do is a preference, please at least remember that.


5) Minah and Minahrep are entirely different things, do not confuse them.
A Minahrep is a gangsta version of a Minah; tattoos, fights, drugs, rehab, jailbird boyfriend and kid in tow.

Minahreps generally don't give two hoots what you call them, because they have other more serious things (like siapa nak jaga baby kalau dia kerja shift) to think about, but it's not nice to call a Minah, Minahrep. It's like if I saw you holding hands and kissing your Mat, I call you a slut. Not very accurate now is it?


Minah-fy yourself today! It's only the cool thing to do.

Actually, where did the term minahrep and matrep come from? I mean, the 'rep' part.

And, there was once I boarded a cab and the apek asked me whether is it appropriate to call Malay girls Minah. I do not know how to explain it to him but I told him that some Malay girls may think that he is insulting them. But he went on to say that it shouldn't be an insult since there are those with names like Minah/Aminah. Oh well!

a girl i got to know from facebook told me that her logic of 'rep' as a subfix cam from 'merepek' yang somehow sudah dishortened dan dibastardised sampai dia jadi 'rep'.

see, apek tu pun faham.

hi what about those malay-looking but just because they're mix dorang tak nak mengaku dorang pure malay padehal i.c tules dorang malay. are they minahs too? hah. cz i dunno why becz of the so called minah reps this group of people do not want to acknowledge that they're malays because they don't want to be labeled as those minah rep. the minahreps have tarnished the malay reputation so much that is why some malay girls dont like to be labeled as a minah or even acknowledge they're malays. (i dunno if you get my drift) hah.

whoa whoa! punctuate and paragraph my friend! but don't worry, i get your drift :)

minahreps are like black sheep, and every race pun ada black sheep okay. tapi aku tak pernah dengar arab tak mengaku arab walaupun generally orang associate arabs ngan terrorists kan.

pasal orang mix ni semua aku taknak argue. sebab aku minah all the way, jiwa dan raga. hurhurhur.

minareps are peepuls too! i like them. they just have different lifestyles/upbringing. i don't really disassociate minahs with minareps. cos nowadays the distinction between them is so little.

perfectly non-gangsta malay girlfriends of mine have tattoos. does not equal minahrep. same with kids in tow, etc. etc.

maybe the only way to really distinct a minahrep is if she associate herself with the secret societies. but nowadays, kalau kau bilang aku ade pompuan bukak puak dia sendiri kat singapore and berjaya claim tu tempat dia, plus ada budak2 dia sendiri, etc. etc. baru aku percaya pmpan tu minarep.

or else.. minah, minahrep... same difference to me :P

Hi eli, my name is Hazwan, and i think u are a beacon of hope for our young malay generation.

As u can see i dun look Malay but i have NEVER denied that i am Malay, though sometimes i 'claim' to be mixed-blood (and was known to some as "Keong" in MI), that is so to stop ppl from asking me so much qns like asal i dun look malay.

I may be what they call a 'college boy' but i took double Literature (English and Sastera) in A levels, so even though my LJ is very the 'speaking', i can speak/write malay just as good, and i got "Power to the Max!" in your 'how good is your minahspaek' quiz at facebook. I used to be in dikir barat tt's how i got mixed with mats/minahs and got intuned with my Mat side. (Some call me Cina-Mat)

I love the way you voice your views and dispel stereotypes, while staying true to urself. I will definitely promote ur lj. I already added u as a friend. Add me oso k! Taking care... ;)

You know Hazwan, if you hung out with me (and my Minahs), we'd call you Wan Cina.

And I'm not young! Okay at least I'd like to think I'm not, you know, feeling Kakak Kakak like that. Hurhur!

Thanks for dropping by, jangan serik datang lagi ok!
