Society of Singles
In an endless debate over whether it is better to be married or
to be single, the married have always gotten far more favourable
attention than the singles do. Exaggerated claims about the
benefits of marrying are commonplace, leading to the those who
are single - whether by choice or circumstances - feeling
conscious, discriminated and left-out by society.
Contextualised against the backdrop of Singaporean
females, this project aims to critique the existing
stigmatisation of women who are single. By identifying the
negative stereotypes and prejudice faced by single Singaporean
females, this project hopes to highlight the underlying
discrimination against singles in our modern society -
"Singlism".
