Well I'm not going back to Singapore until they treat gay men like myself better. I've been there; Singapore is a private money pit/playground for Western and Asian high business, much like Dubai.
- eru 2y agoWhen have you last been? They have recently improved the de jure treatment of gay people. (The de facto treatment hasn't changed.) I agree that the laws about homosexuality are weird, but they are also democratic: it's broadly in line with what the population wants as far as I can tell.
- consteval 2y agoThat's not what democratic means. If the people did not vote on them, it's not democratic, even if it appears as though they would hypothetically vote for it.
- eru 2y agoHuh? The people voted for the government that implemented the policy. Just like with every policy in any representative democracy anywhere around the world.
