Dawn Yang: “Why I revealed Edison’s indecent proposal to me”
“I brought up the personal anecdote of my encounter with Edison not to attract attention, but to drive home a point that no matter how charming or famous a guy is, a girl should not allow herself to be caught in compromising situations, as she has more to lose.
“I don’t want to say anything more about my personal encounter with Edison as that was not the point of my STOMP article.
“I brought this up because when the scandal broke, a chill went down my spine as I could have been one of the unintended victims too.
“I just wanted to share this with the STOMP readers to drive home my message to girls out there to be careful and sensible, not to create a scandal or unwanted news around myself.
“People who read the whole article on STOMP will see that the anecdote was only a small part of it, not the crux; I find it upsetting that the mainstream media is taking the anecdote out of context and blowing it up, completely missing the point and message of my original article.
“Unfortunately I have no control over what STOMP decides to make headlines or not; I even tried my best to persuade SPH not to run this in the papers.
“Riding on the wave of the scandal is NOT ME, its the media and papers who make these headlines to sell more and make money.”
