Taking off from this article (http://www.cracked.com/blog/5-questions-that-need-to-be-banned-from-casual-conversation/) I was surprised the USUAL QUESTIONS Everyone agrees shouldn't be asked...are not here...I am opting to write my own article to list them down :-D
1. Why are you still single?
If you get asked this question you instantly want to KILL the person who asked. In your mind "if only I knew why I wouldn't be!" It's like saying...what is wrong w/ you???
2. Bakit hindi pa kayo magpakasal?
If I were the man I would've proposed decades ago but since I'm the woman obviously I am ONLY WAITING. Don't make it sound like I don't want to get married. WE ALL KNOW I do...
3. Bakit wala pa kayong anak?
This is extremely sensitive. What if the couple has been trying so hard to get pregnant. Worse, what if they already lost a pregnancy. People, especially the elders...have some compassion!
Ok I guess these are all the DREADED questions of everyone who's ever been in such situations. So I suggest if you can't think of anything to say try your best to STILL AVOID asking these questions...you don't know how much misery/desperation/depression/conflict you could be causing afterwards...
