The Technosexual...?!

So, after the Metrosexual, Ubersexual, Jetrosexual, we now have... the Technosexual. The initial description sounds like something I may be able to aspire to: up to speed with the latest gadgets, plugged in through your Blackberry, hang out in virtual communities, shop online and rely on blogs and forums for news.

But here's a description of the outfit that this "Technosexual" lady is wearing:

"Patent bustier dress, $299, and matching gloves, $79, both by Xotic from Tangs Orchard Level 2; leather corset, $3,199, from Jean Paul Gaultier, 01-13 Paragon; Samsung MP3 player YP-K5, $378, for 4GB and $278 for 2GB, available from electronic retail stores"

$3,199?!

It is the same for all the other sexuals - humongous spending power. Seems like you need to be rich to be sexy, huh... being sexy is now an exclusive club these days. Haiz...

Who wants to wear gloves and corsets in hot humid SG? Silly attempt to catch up with Europeans?

IMHO, a technosexual lady has the following:
1) The latest smallest cell phone with the functions: camera, mirror, face powder compartments and of course the usual boring calendar functions etc.
2) USB thumb drive (10GB) with flip out lipstick with changeable colours
3) Smallest laptop (10 inch screen) - all very portable hidden in platform shoes
4) Of course, not forgetting the Hubby/Boyfriend remote control with the following buttons: "Buy me diamond", "Buy me flowers", "Go for facial with me", "Be romantic" etc.
5) Outfit: Why waste money on bustier dress when there's always the cool t-shirt with "I'm a hot babe" written in binary. Techno-savvy or no?

All these wonderful modern gadgets are brought to you by the great Cloud-loving Poet Pte. Ltd.
