White Tag

Have you ever been asked or asked yourself this question: If you saw a stranger having a wardrobe malfunction would you tell ? Some say it would be courteous to do so, but by telling them you make it known to them that you saw it. It would hence be controversial especially in the case of a guy telling a lady.. ' hey your bra's exposed' and in his mind going ' yep i saw it'

This is Singapore. The rare few would go up to the person and tell him/her, most people would just act like they never see it. and a select few will just keep staring and not say a word. I always wondered which one I'd be, and in such cases you usually never know till it happens.

so there I was standing in the train. and this lady was standing in front back facing me. She was wearing a low V cut back black dress, and looked quite beautiful for her age. cept there was one anomaly, at the back of her dress, a white tag stuck out about 2 inches long. I think it was the clothes tag but it really ruin the whole nice look of the black dress..

I felt obligated to tell her that the little white tag had ruined her attempt to look good in a pretty black dress .. she had her back faced to me. I thought of tapping her on the shoulder, but was afraid it would startle her and bring too much attention to me. I thought of telling her but it was crowded and people would hear what I was going to say. I even thought of telling another lady to tell her, cause if I were to my words would probably be very awkward.

After she alighted I kept thinking to myself, another minute I would've told her.. ah but she was out of my sight and the white tag didn't bother me no more.
