Description

Ming-ming is restraining herself from playing with that yarn ball! Her social image makes her want to keep poised and proper, but her animal instincts tell her otherwise!

This one turned out to be rather symbolic. How many of us are dictated to by society to act out our lives? How we should dress, what is acceptable and/or unacceptable, what's in or out, and so on! Whether at work, at school or elsewhere, the dominating opinions of society dictate a "proper" way of life to the individual person! Many people nowadays supress their inner nature just to remain socially acceptable. In Ming-ming's case, there's really nothing wrong with playing with that yarn ball, but society says she has a reputation to keep, so no!

P.S. To Filipino deviants, I think this might have been a subconscious protest against a previously popular yet nauseating Filipino pop "song", In or Out!

We have that same problem here in the US. At work, I'm expected to wear a shirt with the company logo, khaki slacks, and a belt. Boys are stereotyped as macho and girls as tender, though some prefer to behave the opposite.
Note to US deviants: This may also be symbolic of one our classic rock songs, Let Me Be.
