Exploring the interplay of gender and representation, this book delves into Singapore and Malaysia's cultural history and contemporary landscape. It analyzes how gender and sexuality are constructed through everyday politics, education, and various media, including literature and film. Key tropes such as the "Sarong Party Girl" and the "Singapore Girl" illustrate restrictive gender roles, while the text also highlights forms of resistance emerging in theatre, social media, and education, showcasing the ongoing dialogue around gender boundaries in these societies.
