Average Looking Mat

I was one of the subjects during today’s survey.

There were eight of us. 4 men 4 women. Fair and square.

The topic of the survey was which of the following list of public figures that would best represent the Malay community.

Ok perhaps that was an interpretation of the topic.

Maybe it was: which of the following persons would unite the community as a spokesperson for the community.

I think that was it.

If I were to list down those public figures I do not think my international audience would identify with them. So I will list them as such:

Footballer
Entertainer/producer
Singer-comedian-actress
Idol winner
Scientist
Philanthropist
Artist (pottery)
Artist (folk singer)
Businessman
Beauty queen/lawyer

The odds are against the women because out of the 10, only two were women.

In any case, after an hour of giving our collective $40 worth of opinions, here’s what the men came up with as their top 5.

1. Footballer
2. Idol winner
3. Philanthropist
4. Scientist
5. Businessman

The women:

1. Idol winner
2. Footballer
3. Scientist
4. Philanthropist
5. Businessman

… and all that for a miserly $50.

Any thoughts?
