I came up with this name ALVIAN, since the real names of the couple are already all over the internet. If you don’t know about the scandal of Alvin & Vivian yet, feel free to google it. I summarize it anyway. Looks like they are a couple of lovers who are a bit on their eccentric side when it comes to their sexual life. Doing pre-marital sex, is one thing. Maybe it’s normal for most people. What about Sharing and publishing it for other people to enjoy? That definitely landed them in the land of fame. So is it worth it? Plus, they are both Malaysians. Now that’s really a questionable kind of Fame. Maybe this couple have not followed the case of the steward who almost went to jail for the offense of intentionally publishing his sexual clips. Knowing what trouble the man went through just because of a sex video that he initially took for fun, I knew that Alvin & Vivian gonna get into deeper crap.
I have watched the videos and nude photos of them on Gutter. First, I was surprised how open they are. Not only that they never hide their names and their whereabouts, they are making Nudity/Intercourse a very normal thing. Yeah, maybe that’s ART. Most people thought that they were doing this to get famous. Isn’t that a lot ot stake, when you show your own private parts and your bedroom story videos just to have people talking about you? That’s why, I counted that out. “They can’t be that silly”. See, Alvian? I would rather go with the “Appreciation of ART” just so all this can make some sense. But wait, I read one interview with Alvin, he did say that they wanted recognition for their work. Maybe they thought, taking each other’s nude photos for just both of them to see, is somekind of a wastage of art. Seriously, I didn’t get it. Being 23 and still at college, I don’t know if they have done enough thinking of the consequences. Anyway, they did state a point to support their decision of publishing the porny materials, which is
"We don’t see why people who are sexually-active and/or being open about their sex lives should be treated as sinners or criminals. Sex is a natural reproductive process that really doesn’t deserve to have a stigma attached to it. Close-minded people need to get over it," they said.”
Sex as a natural reproductive process, yes right. But please also consider that, it’s highly suggested that only Adults, who are aware of their action, and who are assumed to have knowledge on the purpose of sex; are fit to have sexual intercourse – in the real idea of sex being the process of reproductive. But too bad, you and I know, sex is not just that. Sex has become a subject of crime when it’s done without the consent of the partner, and when 2 couples who are unmarried have it “illegally”, which then cause a lot of trouble for them when an unplanned pregnancy happens which will lead to baby dumping and abortion. Not to mention, unsafe sex can also spread STD and fatal disease like Aids. So with all the social problems involving sex, it becomes a bit unthoughtful to simply highlight SEX in an innocent manner, just to defend your acts as nothing but Honest and Harmless. You’ ve born in this society since day 1, don’t make it sound like you are shocked to see the feedbacks. Guess what, if you two have really thought about the consequences, you wouldn’t be taking down your blog for damage control. I bet only now you guys realize that you are not the only one who have to deal with the aftermath. You have your parents and siblings who go to work/school and mix with people everyday, who have to deal with people who watch your piece of ART. At least have some thoughts for your old folks who have reputation to keep.
For me, although I never mention about your respect for a religion, which it’s never brought up which religion are you belong to, but it’s even more misleading for other people to think that just because you two are not Muslims, sex outside marriage is legalized and permitted. You can adapt the westerner way, but that doesn’t make you Westerners. Even Westerners are embarrassed when their private sexual collection leak to public. But you are not. You are still bound with the law of the country you belong to. And whatever your personal belief is about your right as human being, to have and follow a certain religion would help a lot in the your decision making – especially how to live in a community so that we all can remain in peace and harmony. Making sex private doesn’t make you less open-minded. Making sex private doesn’t make you ancient and less fun, or less creative. Unless it’s okay for you to possibly make it as the first video that your toddlers watch in the future, then maybe we believe that you are THAT OPEN-MINDED and that your kids will accept this idea too in their early age. If not, then now you understand the concern of the parents out there. 23 is not that young to start thinking like an adult, who have responsibility. You could still be around for another 60 years to receive the bad impact from this scandal. Are you sure you are still proud of what you have done?
Last but not least, my personal opinion on this scandal is – I dislike it when you guys make SEX look like something really casual, just like going to a party and get drunk and go home. Where it’s all just fun, and no commitment, no responsibilty, and Nothing Special. Some people still believe that sex should be something really special and sacred, to reflect being “the reproductive process” as what you highlited. That people have to vow commitment to live together, recognized by law and religion, before they can do it, in love and affection. And this scandal kills the idea of what suppose to be the most exciting thing about Sex. After all said and done. I’m sure it’s agreed by many that Sex should still remain Private and Confidential. :)
