Bahasa Kita, PSK is not PELACUR!

Bahasan di dunia kampus, especially segmen Bahasa Kita edisi hari ini, Senin 27 Juli 2009 sangat menarik emosi saya untuk berfluktuasi. Ya gimana ngga, di dalamnya terdapat kata: kupukupu!! Slain juga alasan rasional lain yang saya yakin membuat Bujang Dare *terutama yang masih punya good sense of language sensitivity* agak sedikit meradang menerjang begitu menyadari betapa selama ini banyak sekali KONSPIRASI menyebalkan yang sudah terlanjur masuk dalam otak kita. Seperti apakah bahasannya? Ya udah, silahkeun dibaca sendiri ya :)

Pekerja seks komersial, disingkat PSK; itulah nama yang digunakan di media-media massa untuk menyebut mereka. Entah siapa sebenarnya yang pertama kali menggunakan istilah ini, namun yang jelas, nampaknya semua media sudah bersepakat (atau berkonspirasi?) untuk menggunakannya secara konsisten.

Pekerja; sebuah istilah yang sangat bagus. Islam sangat menyukai kerja, apalagi kerja dalam rangka mencari nafkah. Sebuah hadits yang diriwayatkan oleh Imam Bukhari mengatakan bahwa tiada makanan yang lebih baik daripada yang merupakan hasil usaha tangan sendiri. Sebuah hadits lainnya mengatakan bahwa orang yang merasa kelelahan karena mencari nafkah akan disenangi Allah, bahkan dosa-dosanya di malam itu (yaitu malam ketika ia merasa kelelahan setelah bekerja seharian) akan diampuni. Ada juga hadits yang mengatakan bahwa diantara dosa-dosa yang tak bisa dihapus dengan pahala shalat, sedekah dan haji, ada yang bisa ditebus dengan kepayahan mencari nafkah.

Seks; sebuah istilah yang juga mengundang banyak perhatian dalam agama Islam. Berlainan dengan beberapa agama lainnya, Islam tidak memandang seks sebagai sesuatu yang buruk. Islam menetapkan pahala bagi hubungan seks antara suami-istri. Rasulullah saw. bersabda, jika menyalurkan hasrat seksual di jalan yang haram maka pasti berdosa. Sebaliknya, jika menyalurkannya di jalan yang benar tentu berpahala.

Komersial; sebuah istilah yang selalu berkaitan dengan perniagaan. Tidak ada salahnya berdagang dan mencari keuntungan, bahkan hal tersebut dicontohkan oleh Rasulullah saw. Kemandirian finansial adalah hal yang sangat penting bagi seorang Muslim. Islam juga sangat memperhatikan pentingnya kejujuran dan keridhaan dalam setiap transaksi jual-beli.

Jadi mengapa ketiga istilah yang sejatinya membicarakan hal-hal yang sangat ‘Islami’ ini kemudian diperkosa sedemikian rupa sehingga kombinasinya menghasilkan sebuah frase yang menggantikan kata “pelacur”? Tak berhenti sampai di situ, muncul pula istilah baru lain, demi membela harkat dan martabat para pelacur, yaitu: kupu-kupu malam. Kupu-kupu; hewan cantik yang hidupnya hinggap dari bunga ke bunga, yang melakukan puasa (saya tidak gunakan istilah shaum di sini untuk membedakannya dengan ibadah umat Muslim) untuk mengubah diri dari ulat yang buruk menjadi kupu-kupu yang manis. Malam; waktu-waktu strategis yang digunakan untuk beristirahatnya manusia, bahkan fungsinya ini pun disebut-sebut dalam Al-Qur’an. Apa dosa kupu-kupu dan malam sehingga mereka dikombinasikan untuk menghasilkan makna “pelacur”?

Keberpihakan manusia pada para pelacur memang luar biasa. Mungkin karena banyak yang percaya pada sebuah anekdot sarkastis yang mengatakan bahwa pelacur adalah profesi yang paling tua di dunia. Entah dari mana mereka mendapatkan data untuk mendukung hipotesis ini. Yang jelas, pembelaan media terhadap pelacur nampaknya memang jauh lebih hebat daripada pembelaannya terhadap para ulama atau MUI. Sebagian aktifis Islam yang menuntut ditegakkannya syariat Islam diberi label ‘preman berjubah’, sedangkan para pelacur nista disanjung sebagai ‘pekerja seks komersial’. Mesti kita beri nama apakah para insan pers yang merekayasa peristilahan dalam bahasa Indonesia ini?

Masyarakat marah pada para pelacur. Anak-anak mereka, suami-suami mereka, dan ayah-ayah mereka jadi tak bermoral gara-gara pelacuran. Yang melacur pun tak lain adalah anak-anak gadis mereka, kakak-adik perempuan mereka, dan barangkali juga istri-istri dan ibu-ibu mereka juga. Pemerintah yang menjunjung tinggi ‘kepentingan semua orang’ (termasuk kehendak para germo dan pelacur juga) kemudian mengajukan solusi: lokalisasi saja semua pelacur itu! Supaya tidak memberi ekses negatif pada masyarakat, para pelacur pun dibikinkan kompleknya sendiri untuk bernista-ria bersama para pelanggannya. Tapi para pelacur lebih pintar daripada pemerintah. Untuk memangkas biaya, lokalisasi tidak hanya jadi tempat bekerja, tapi juga jadi tempat tinggal mereka. Dan karena hukum ekonomi supply and demand, karena lokalisasi ramai dengan pengunjung, maka banyak yang melihatnya sebagai peluang bisnis. Jualan makanan kecil, minuman ringan, atau buka warung, pasti laku. Maka para pedagang pun berdatangan dan secara tidak langsung ikut menikmati bisnis pelacuran ini. Karena pedagang pun ingin memangkas biaya, maka mereka pun tinggal di lokalisasi itu. Para pelacur dan pedagang lebih pintar daripada pemerintah. Alih-alih menjauhkan pelacuran dari komunitas masyarakat, lokalisasi malah menciptakan masyarakatnya sendiri. Siklus beralih kembali, sehingga anak-anak mereka, suami-suami mereka, ayah-ayah mereka kembali jadi pelanggan para pelacur, sedangkan anak-anak perempuan mereka, kakak-adik perempuan mereka, istri-istri mereka dan ibu-ibu mereka pun menjadi pelacur pula. Generasi apa yang bisa kita harapkan lahir dari sebuah komplek yang didominasi oleh para pelacur?

Setelah berhasil menguasai komplek lokalisasi, menyedot perhatian masyarakat yang dulu meminggirkannya, dan mendapatkan pembelaan dari media massa, para pelacur pun sudah berani untuk mendeklarasikan keinginannya untuk mendominasi DPRD. Di Kabupaten Blitar, para pelacur sudah mengancam akan berdemo telanjang kalau Pemkab meneruskan niatnya untuk menutup tiga buah lokalisasi di kabupaten itu (ya, ada tiga!). “Kami ini juga manusia yang butuh pekerjaan untuk menghidupi keluarga!” kata salah seorang dari mereka. “Pemerintah harus manusiawi!” kata salah seorang aktifis yang membela mereka. “Dari parkir saja, lokalisasi menyumbang dana 1,5 juta rupiah per bulan!” begitu kata koordinator salah satu lokalisasi.

Para pelacur memang luar biasa. Kebobrokan moral bisa mereka tutupi dengan isu-isu kemanusiaan. Segalanya dikonversi dalam satuan rupiah, sehingga nampak seolah-olah mereka adalah semacam ‘pahlawan devisa’ bagi pemerintah. Tapi tak ada yang menghitung berapa banyak keluarga yang hancur berantakan gara-gara pelacuran, berapa banyak anak yang rusak moralnya karena lahir dan besar di lokalisasi, dan berapa orang yang terjangkit HIV/AIDS per tahunnya. Konspirasi yang mereka galang nyaris sempurna. Nyaris, karena nampaknya masih ada DPRD yang tak tersentuh. Jangan heran kalau di pemilu-pemilu mendatang ada caleg yang terang-terangan mengaku dulunya berprofesi sebagai pelacur, atau dengan berapi-api menyatakan akan membela hak-hak para pelacur. Ah, kenapa tidak sekalian saja bikin partai? Partai Pelacur?

Ah, tapi para pelacur tak suka disebut pelacur. Barangkali dalam waktu dekat ini, para penulis Kamus Besar Bahasa Indonesia pun akan dituntut untuk menghilangkan kata pelacur dari kosa kata bangsa Indonesia, selamanya!

Ego - Beyonce feat. Kanye West

Ego Remix (ft Kanye West) Lyrics
I got a big ego, (hahaha)
I’m such a big ego, (hahaha)
I got a big, (hahaha), Ego,
She love my big, (hahaha), Ego,
So stroke my big, (hahaha), Ego,
I like to joke around a little bit but here we go,
Welcome to the wonderful world,
Of go play the earl coz,
Everything I throw up, blow up,
Talking to the girl,
She said, know what, grow up,
You nasty,
I don’t understand why they trippin’,
If you ask me,
Flow is just as nice as,
I admit the propane,
I just spit, probably,
Just raise the gas prices,
Everybody in the club,
Try and get as fresh as me,
What you want dog,
Trying to stay recession free,
And spit, refreshly,
When I rock the stadium,
You probably get sweaty,
You should bring a extra tee,
Now I’m standing next to Jay,
Who standing next to B,
You coulda been anywhere in the world,
But you’re here with me,
That’s good for ego,
Me and my ego,
And it go wherever we go,
My ego is my imaginary friend,
He was with me when I was only imagining,
I had dreams of the league,
On day I play Coby,
I walk up the puff and he already know me,
Coulda let the dream killers, kill my self esteem,
Or use the arrogance as a steam that power my dreams,
And my ego,
It’s on baby, let’s get lost,
You don’t need to call into work ’cause you’re the boss,
For real, want you to show me how you feel,
I consider myself lucky, that’s a big deal,
Why? Well, you got the key to my heart,
But you ain’t gonna need it, I’d rather you open up my body,
And show me secrets, you didn’t know was inside,
No need for me to lie,
It’s too big, it’s too wide,
It’s too strong, it won’t fit,
It’s too much, it’s too tough,
He talk like this ’cause he can back it up,
He got a big ego, such a huge ego,
I love his big ego, it’s too much,
He walk like this ’cause he can back it up,
Usually I’m humble, right now I don’t choose,
You can leave with me or you could have the blues,
Some call it arrogant, I call it confident,
You decide when you find on what I’m working with,
Damn I know I’m killing you with them legs,
Better yet them thighs,
Matter a fact it’s my smile or maybe my eyes,
Boy you a site to see, kind of something like me,
It’s too big, it’s too wide,
It’s too strong, it won’t fit,
It’s too much, it’s too tough,
I talk like this ’cause I can back it up,
I got a big ego, such a huge ego,
But he love my big ego, it’s too much,
I walk like this ’cause I can back it up,
It’s too big, it’s too wide,
It’s too strong, it won’t fit,
It’s too much, it’s too tough,
He talk like this ’cause he can back it up,
He got a big ego, such a huge ego,
I love his big ego, it’s too much,
He walk like this ’cause he can back it up,
Ego so big, you must admit,
I got every reason to feel like I’m that bitch,
Ego so strong, if you ain’t know,
I don’t need no beat, I can sing it with piano.




Sam's Record of The Week
We Were Aborted - The Cribs

In the grey of yesterday
A breeze blew over exposing
A memory so small
What is it here for

Your virility, makes me forget empathy
Dig your hole
That's what we're here for

To make you feel important
cause you knew we were aborted
It's the same things that we're saying all the time

And they have have everything
They kept there ribs, i'm sure of it
It's what they're all about
But getting inside counts

Mass virility, has made me forget empathy
Dig your hole
It's what we're here for

To make you feel important
cause you knew we were aborted
It's the same things that were saying all the time
(they may be views , but they'll never be mine)

The mid-shelf masturbation
Leaves a smear on half the nation
Its the same things that they're saying all the time

aaaaaahh
guitar solo

Oh your virility, has made me forget empathy
dig your hole
its what they're here for

To make you feel important

The mid-shelf masturbation
Leaves a smear on half the nation
It's the same things that they're saying all the time

New In Town - Little Boots

Heard you’re New in town
Want someone to show you around
Well no-one knows this place just quite like me
Well I don’t, hang with the crowd
Where I go, were dressing down
I’ll take you where the music plays for free

So don’t rely on people you meet
Cause no-one is safe in these streets

I’m gonna take you out tonight
I’m gonna make you feel alright
I don’t have a lot of money
But we’ll be fine
No, I don’t have a penny
But I’ll show you a good time
I’m gonna take you out tonight
I’m gonna make you feel alright
I don’t have a lot of money but we’ll be fine
No, I don’t have a penny
But I’ll show you a real good time

What I do, you think so far
Is it all your hoping for
Does it live up to your every dream
Or do, we disappoint
While you make the choice
When you wake up can you hear a scream

So don’t rely on people you meet
Cause no-one is safe in these streets

I’m gonna take you out tonight

When strangers only make you feel apart
You never, ever felt so far from home
You never felt so far from home

I don’t have a lot of money
But we’ll be fine
No, I don’t have a penny
But I’ll show you a good time

Venny's Record of The
The Day I Died - Just Jack

Drag myself from my bed
Around 20 past 6
Get my kids up make breakfast
1 egg 2 toast 3 weetabix

and as i sit down i look up
and your standing in the doorway sun at your back
in my old brown dressing gown
Well no one can love you more than i love you now, but i

Gotta go running for the bus
Coat flying and i try not to miss it this time
but the drivers waiting and thats strange
kids on the top deck quiet for a change
and theres no rain and no roadworks
in the bus lane and all my hurts run away
and im smiling as im punching in

the day i died was the best day of my life
the day i died was the best day of my life
tell my friends and my kids and my wife
everything will be alright
the day i died was the best day of my life

now the secretaries they got a smile for me
and the intray on my desks almost empty
I get a memo from executive joe
saying Rob the gob is getting kicked out
for embezzling funds from the company account
and id be lying if i said i wasnt chuffed
cos i always hated rob
and now they'll probbaly offer me robs old job

and in the park at lunch
theres no whinos on my favourite bench
none of that drunk chatter none of that pissy stench
and the 20 little piegeons with the gammy leg
decide to dine from someone elses sandwich instead
and theres something about the city today
like all the colours conspire to overwhelm the grey
and this close to the fire i can feel no cold
but a rainbow halo around my soul

the day i died was the best day of my life
the day i died was the best day of my life
tell my friends and my kids and my wife
everything will be alright
the day i died was the best day of my life

so i leave work get to the high street and i miss my bus
should i wait for another no i cant be arsed
i begin to walk
and rush hour crowd seem to part like the red sea
and im stopping at the offy
20 cigerettes and a 6 pack to relax me
and as i cross back over the street
i guess i never saw that taxi
i guess i never saw that taxi

the day i died was the best day of my life
the day i died was the best day of my life
tell my friends and my kids and my wife
everything will be alright
the day i died was the best day of my life

i got 99 red ballons drifiting past my dreamy eyes
i got 99 red ballons floating in the summer sky
i got 99 red ballons drfting past my dying eyes

English Teletalk, having balance life.

under the label: dinie hazel.

July 22nd will be the National Day of Indonesian Court. A lil bit talking about court, reminds me to a word: law. And the word low brings me to remember: fair. Then fair, suggest my brain to have a topic: balance!!

Coz we have known this well already, listeners. Being fair for people means we are supposed to put things on the rait place. I believe much that one of the criteria is by being balance when making a consideration to put everything.

For this so-called wonderful today edition of English Teletalk, in this so much lovely July, let me have you discuss about having balance life.

Life balance and personal happiness do not necessarily depend on earning more money and being successful at work or in business. Other things can have a much bigger impact on our well-being. Our age and 'life-stage' particularly affect what makes us happy and balanced, as does our personality, which stems from our genetic type, and our up-bringing and life experiences. Life balance is therefore changing and different. There is no single model that's right for everyone, and no single approach is right for anyone for their whole life. The search for happiness is further complicated because the factors which most affect our personal well-being are commonly ignored or given very low priority in work and training, and in the media too. In schools also, life balance and personal happiness are largely ignored, and rarely explored or recommended as worth pursuing.

Consequently throughout our lives we don't find it easy to consider properly the issues which actually determine our own personal life balance and happiness. Like most other things however, life balance and happiness can be managed and attained, if we know the components - including our true self - and the causes of our own well-being. Life balance can therefore be understood, planned and achieved, just like any other important aim. The ideas on this webpage attempt to illustrate the wide range of factors affecting our life balance and personal happiness - and whatever these concepts mean to you. And there is also a simple tool to assist the process of considering and making some changes towards a happier more balanced life.

If you are interested to understand and improve your own life balance and personal happiness, you might find what follows to be helpful. For many people life balance equates simply to personal happiness. For others life balance is far more complex.

Life balance also depends on your situation - and your age or life stage.

Life balance is expressed in many different ways, for example:

  • Work-Life balance.
  • Fulfillment - and personal or emotional fulfillment.
  • Well-being, and personal well-being/wellbeing.
  • Happiness, or simply being happy.
  • At peace (with myself or life) or in harmony with life.
  • Contentment, and inner calm.

What does life balance mean to you? And what influences it?

THE QUIZ here maybe help you to decide:

what makes your own life balanced and happy?

It's not a complete list of relevant words - just some examples. Interpret the words however you want, and add any missing words that are important to you personally.

Score or tick the items which are most influential on your personal happiness and life balance at the moment. There are no right or wrong answers and no significance in the sequence or colors - it just makes the list easier on the eye.

Stay with me

Right in this instant
Not in the distance
When your head is off in future time
That's the place when things get out of line

Wherever you are right now
I tell you it's alright
That's where you're supposed to be now

Stay with me

Standing at a crossroads, I was at a loss those
Temporary moments pleasures that are stolen
Here in the present
Your time is so well spent

It's alright

Crossed the heart and hoped to God that it would change
So many times, afraid to give my heart away

Do you feel the way I feel?

Never thought that I would find something like this

Bulletproof - La Roux


Been there, done that, messed around

I'll never let you sweep me off my feet,
I won't let you in again, the messages I've tried to send,
my informations' just not going in,
burnin' bridges shore to shore, I'll break away from something more,

tick tick tick on the watch and life's too short for me to stop,
Oh baby, your time is running out,
I won't let you turn around,
and tell me now I'm much too proud,
All you do is fill me up with doubt,

Peace - Depeche Mode


Peace will come to me
Peace will come to me

I'm leaving bitterness behind
This time I'm cleaning up my mind
There is no space for the regrets
I will remember to forget

Just look at me
I am walking of incoming
Look at the frequencies of which I vibrate
I'm going to light up the world

Peace will come to me
Peace will come to me

I'm leaving anger in the past
With all the shadows that it caused
There is radar in my heart
I should have trusted from the start

Just look at me
I am a living act of holiness
Giving all the positive virtues that I possess
I'm going to light up the world

Peace will come to me
Just wait and see
Peace will come to me
It's meant to be

Peace will come to me
Just wait and see
Peace will come to me
It's inevitability




Veny's Record of The Week
Beautiful - Eminem


Im just so fucking depressed
I just cant seem to get out this slump
If i could just get over this hump
But i need something to pull me out this dump
I took my bruises took my lumps
Fell down and i got right back up
But i need that spark to get psyched back up
And in order for me to pick the mic back up
I dont know how or why or when
I ended up this position im in
Im started to feel dissin again
So i decided just to pick this pen
Up and try to make an attempt to vent
But i just cant admit
Or come to grips the fact that i may be done with rap
I need a new outlet
And i know some shits so hard to swallow
But i cant just sit back and wallow
In my own sorrow but i know one fact
Ill be one tough act to follow
One tough act to follow
Ill be one tough act to follow
Here today gone tomorrow but you'd have to walk a thousand miles

In my shoes, just to see
What its like, to be me
Ill be you, lets trade shoes
Just to see what id be like
To feel your pain, you feel mine
Go inside eachothers minds
Just to see what we'd find
Look at shit through eachothers eyes
Don't let them say you aint beautiful
They can all get fucked just stay true to you
Dont matter saying you aint beautiful
They can all get fucked just stay true to you

I think im starting to lose my sense of humor
Everythings so tense and gloom
I almost fee like i gotta check the temperature of the room just as soon as i walk in
Its like all eyes on me i try to avoid any contact
Cuz if i do that then it opens the door for conversation like i want that
im not looking for extra attention i just want to be just like you
Blend in with the rest of the room maybe just point me to the closest restroom
I dont need no fucking man servant tryin ta follow me around and try to wipe my ass
Laugh at every single joke i crack and half of them aint even funny like Hahhhhh
"Marshall your so funny man you should be a comedian god damn"
Unfortunately i am i just hide behind the tears of a clown
So why dont you all sit downn
Listen to the tale that im about to tell
Hell we dont gotta trade our shoes
And you dont gotta walk no thousand miles

In my shoes, just to see
What its like, to be me
Ill be you, lets trade shoes
Just to see what id be like
To feel your pain, you feel mine
Go inside eachothers minds
Just to see what we'd find
Look at shit through eachothers eyes
Don't let them say you aint beautiful
They can all get fucked just stay true to you
Dont matter saying you aint beautiful
They can all get fucked just stay true to youuuuu

Nobody asked for life to deal us with these bullshit hands we're dealt
We gotta take these cards ourselves and flip em dont expect no help
Now i could have either just stayed at home sit on my ass and pissed and moaned
Or take this situation with which im placed in and get up and kick my own
I was never the type of kid to wait by the door and pack his bags
And sat on the porch and hope and prayed for a dad to show up who never did
I just wanted to fit in in every single place every school i went
I dreamed of being that cool kid even if it meant acting stupid
And edna always told me keep making that face and it'll get stuck like that
Meanwhile im just standing there holding my tongue trynwa twalk like dwis
Then i stuck my tongue on that frozen stop sign pole at 8 years old
I learned my lesson then cuz i wasn't trying to impress my friends no more
But i already told you my whole life story
Not just based on my description
Cuz where you see it from where your sittin its probably 110% different
I guess we would have to walk a mile in eachothers shoes at least
What size you wear? i wear tens
Lets see if you can fit your feet

In my shoes, just to see
What its like, to be me
Ill be you, lets trade shoes
Just to see what itd be like
To feel your pain, you feel mine
Go inside eachothers minds
Just to see what we'd find
Look at shit through eachothers eyes
It dont matter saying you aint beautiful
They can all get fucked just stay true to you
Don't let them say you aint beautiful
They can all get fucked just stay true to you
So
It dont matter saying you aint beautiful
They can all get fucked just stay true to you
So

Eminem

Yeah
To my babies
Stay strong
Daddy will be home soon
And to the rest of the world
God gave you shoes to fit you
So put em on and wear them
Be yourself man
Be proud of who you are
And even if it sounds corny
Dont ever let anyone tell you you ain't beautiful




Yuyun's Record of The Week
Laughing With - Regina Spektor


No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
No one’s laughing at God
When they’re starving or freezing or so very poor

No one laughs at God
When the doctor calls after some routine tests
No one’s laughing at God
When it’s gotten real late
And their kid’s not back from the party yet

No one laughs at God
When their airplane start to uncontrollably shake
No one’s laughing at God
When they see the one they love, hand in hand with someone else
And they hope that they’re mistaken

No one laughs at God
When the cops knock on their door
And they say we got some bad news, sir
No one’s laughing at God
When there’s a famine or fire or flood

But God can be funny
At a cocktail party when listening to a good God-themed joke, or
Or when the crazies say He hates us
And they get so red in the head you think they’re ‘bout to choke
God can be funny,
When told he’ll give you money if you just pray the right way
And when presented like a genie who does magic like Houdini
Or grants wishes like Jiminy Cricket and Santa Claus
God can be so hilarious
Ha ha
Ha ha

No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
No one’s laughing at God
When they’ve lost all they’ve got
And they don’t know what for

No one laughs at God on the day they realize
That the last sight they’ll ever see is a pair of hateful eyes
No one’s laughing at God when they’re saying their goodbyes
But God can be funny
At a cocktail party when listening to a good God-themed joke, or
Or when the crazies say He hates us
And they get so red in the head you think they’re ‘bout to choke
God can be funny,
When told he’ll give you money if you just pray the right way
And when presented like a genie who does magic like Houdini
Or grants wishes like Jiminy Cricket and Santa Claus
God can be so hilarious

No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
No one laughing at God in hospital
No one’s laughing at God in a war
No one’s laughing at God when they’re starving or freezing or so very
poor

No one’s laughing at God
No one’s laughing at God
No one’s laughing at God
We’re all laughing with God
