Eh??? I'm digressing from my title already..Actually I have one question that has been bugging me for soooooooooooooooooooooooo long already. It has been more than 5 years now. Its not a killer question lah..just need an answer from those who expert in chinese culture or maybe feng shui thing. Can?? Ok! ok! Direct to the question :
Why I cannot wash my panties together with the other clothes in the washing machine? Why hubby cannot wash my panties??? Why my panties cannot be hung together with other clothes??? Why my panties are considered dirty though I've washed it more than 1000x????
Hahaha!! what a question..But until today , i have to follow this strict rules not to mix my panties with other clothes at home. Sometimes i wonder why. When i asked hubby, he cannot give me the proper answer i need.
Me : Baby, why you cannot wash my panty ah???
Hubby : Ayak!! Its the feng shui thing lah..
Me : Ya lah..but why..????
Hubby : Its the older people say lah..*don't want to discuss further*
Me : *Frustrated setengah mati*
I've always wondered why women panty is such a dirty thing in chinese culture (maybe only to the buddhist chinese????) I hope somebody can enlighten me on this..Thank you very much!!
The rain is still not stop yet!! Ayak! But i'm so lazy to type my story already..hehehee! So like that lah my post today..Oh!! I also want to wish everybody a happy weekend this week. I'm going to the 'City of Entertainment' tomorrow. Will post millions of photos soon..ekekeke!! Tata!!!

hah? yakah? cannot kah? hahahaha....kalu us at home, hentam saja itu panties masuk washing machine cuci with the rest of the clothes....
but i thought every feng shui do's and dont's has its own logical reason so how come this one hard to explain ah? or else this one is mcm itu pantang larang urg tua, 'jangan potong kuku waktu mlm'???
Err, sorry can't help you on this. I don't practise this kind of pantang wan...I chuck all my panties into the washer and hang them out together with the other clothes. I like my panties to be nicely sunned lar...don't like to gantung it in the toilet like some old ladies I know.
After all, there's a reason why people buy expensive panties right? You just gotta flaunt them, babeh!
No wonder! My aunty married to a Chinese man also. One day when we visited her MIL, the mom kept on mumbling something. Since my aunty cant understand, dia pun tanya la uncle, but uncle cakap teda apa2 just adat2 orang tua deblang. Suddenly my cousin cakap.. 'Aiya, popo said bapa cannot wash your santut la mommy'.. Haha ketawa kami brabis dalam kereta.
Actually that time my aunty baru ja branak bah, and since kami (me and my younger aunt) forbidden to wash the panty yg ada darah bersalin, the uncle yg terpaksa la. I guess tu MIL kedapatan time uncle sa mencuci kali
Weird kan. Tp wanna know also why cant the husband wash the wife panty??
feng shui??...hmm i wonder what was the pantang larang long before santut invented ah?...
KM,
what an interesting post hehe.
But my answer is same like the rest, i sumbat all one go in the washing machine hehehehe
hahhaha..good question! Kenapa inda bulih ka? me like the rest main buang saja di dalam WM. tapi i hang separately..ada hanger khas for me inside and his. :P
Ps: Betul ka ni pantang larang? Or just that the men use this as an excuse inda mau cuci extra? LOL!! Clever jug adiorang ni kan? LOL!!
Chegu carol ~ i have no idea why carol..hehehehe until now masih lagi bepikir nie..hahaha!!!
Kalau putung kuku tengah malam tu logik lah..takut teputung jari..but panty?? adeh..pening!!
lil'ms pinky ~ Oh! ok i thou all chinese follows that..hehe i do sumbat my own clothes + panty inside the WM..but only mine..never with others..later kena 'tiaw'..die oh!! hahaha
adora madpie ~ me also like that last time..when i was so heavy pregnant with my son, hubby did help me washed my panty, sekali kena marah my MIL nie...hahaha eversince that day..tia pernah sudah..
masa beranak nie..jan cakap lah..hehe me wash everything myself..
jew ~ hehehehe..thats what i've been asking hubby too..what was the pantang before santut was invented..kena bagi silent answer jak sia nie..ekeke
-gina g- ~ actually i do sumbat my own clothes in the WM..only it was never with the other clothes..pernah kena warning before!! wakakakaka!!
Actually i'm wondering why saja bah now..i want to know why there is such pantang like that..
emelda ~ mel..memang ada betul-betul pantang!! hahaha during couple time, hubby had no probs helping me washed all my panty..the pantang is only berkuat kuasa after we got married..
Until today, i still don't understand why..hehehee!!!
Oh,another lesson learnt. Best jg belajar ttg pantang larang kaum lain ni. but this one,mmg menguntungkan kaum lelaki la..hehe..
mell ~ hehehe! untung juga lah kali kan..sebab tia payah tulung cuci..tapi sia tepikir apa logik di sebalik tu pantang ah??
LOL! hmmn can't help u ere kadusMama..but if not mistaken pernah dingar lah..hmm kena tanya si Lilian Too lah ni ;)
jppmom ~ Hehe!! Its ok..i was hoping somebody who is expert in this will tell me aabout it bah..nanti lah kan tanya Lilian Too..hahahaha
I asked WC and feng-shui-wise, he said it's all about the wealth luck. Cuz yes, chinese old folks' belief was that ladies panties are dirty cuz got discharge/blood so must never be mixed with other clothes nor be put in WM. So hubbies must never wash wives' panties cuz scared that their wealth luck will also be affected. So yeay! I've answered your questions kadusmama! hehe.. :)
jacq ~ Wah!!!!! TQ for the answer..but..what if the panty is new panty?? Like i never wear it before?? is it allowed to be washed with other clothes??? Hehe..just curious!
If only the old folks knew about menstrual blood can be used to save people's life..I'm sure they going to change the law right away..hehehehe!
Ppl say "sui" wo...if hubby wash our panties. Then it's like our panties are so dirty things, that's y have to wash by hands separately lor
first time to hear such thing and i kept on smiling all day thinking about what JacQ have explained to you. Quite funny lo hehe... anw, kadus mama i've got this card waiting for you at my blog hehe here;s the link http://mrsezman.blogspot.com/2008/09/i-have-visa-credit-card.html
Like JACQ said.. thats what I know. Men is the head of the house, need to maintain the wealth luck - according to the chinese that believe in this thing.
*nasib kaulah KDMama. :D
Kadusmama,
within this short time berapa banyak cerita santut ko ah kih kih kih.
Anyways, ala skrg tia susa mah kasi masuk saja dalam tu washing machine dan takan tu butang2 hehehe.
All the best
wah!! ada lagi banyak komen rupanya!!
little inbox ~ really kah?? I don't know lah..since i don't have this kind of pantang, difficult for me to follow lah..
mrs.ezman ~ i only hear about it 5 1/2 years ago..and until now..still hard for me to digest about the fact lah..hehehehe
papajoneh ~ *sigh* Though i don't really believe such thing, apa bulih buat..follow saja lah..
Lab papa ~ actually kan..last nite i want to talk about santut lagi..but i missed one of my $$$ ops..sayang..if not..habis lah..baca pasal santut saja..hahaha
LOL! I have no idea about this. All I know is I don't believe in feng shui and stuff like that ...
I suppose it's just an excuse guys made up to avoid more work ... hehehe ...
Hi Kadus Mama!
I've been a silent reader to your blog but today I decided not to be silent anymore! LOL!
Chinese cannot hang panties ah... but my neighbor is a Chinese and I see their panties hanging all over the fence, basar lagi saiz dia tu :D
All these pantang larang very obsolete suda la, should be revamped kan.
for us ladies in the family, we actually wash by hand first, then masuk into the machine for the second wash. usually last time ndak masuk machine but now masuk saja la for the thorough washing.
hehe.. me n hubby punya 'under thingy'.. we wash separate from other cloths.. we hand wash.. kami ganti2 wash lah..either me or my hubby yg wash.. hygene bah kunun tu.. tia mo mix with other cloths..no pantang..
Nick Phillips ~ hehehe...i don't believe it too..but what to do, hubby does believe it..so i have to follow saja..
Not sure whats the logic of panty = wealth...
Nessa ~ hehehe..me also alawys malu2 in ur blog..just read without commenting..
Maybe ur neighbour is a christian chinese??? (hahaha!! ada lagi bah kestau the size kan??)
lxndreasb ~ oh! still can lah??? last time i remember my mom told us to wash our panty separately..not because of the feng shui thing..but more to the hygene purpose..
hahahahahaaha karau sa ketawa baca suma orang punya komen. Laku your post kalau cerita santut kan?? hahaha..
Anyways, like Nick.. I also think it's just an excuse for the men to avoid doing "unnecessary" work maybe zaman dulu2 tu. And how panty=wealth is way beyond me. Sumbat jak masuk washing machine.. that's how we all do it. LOL!
Shemah ~ hahaha! iya bah..laku tul kalau ceta santut nie!! (how i miss to use the word santut!! hahaha)
But since my MIL is staying with us, have to follow juga lah the rules..hehhe
