SINGAPORE — Ayden Sng, 29, a Singaporean actor, introduced the term ‘prawn capital’ as a reference of foreigners towards Singaporean men. Appearing on Sonia Chew’s podcast, Men, Explain, the actor explained the meaning behind the nickname given by outsiders.

Ayden expressed that Singaporean men are known to other nationalities as “meaty and muscular” with fit bodies by working out at the gym. However, they “don’t look good and are not very presentable”.
