No. For the simple reason that God created man and woman. Not two man or two woman.

Currently, same sex marriage are being recognise in the following countries: Belgium, Canada, Netherlands, Spain, U.S. state of Massachusetts.
Should Singapore legalise same sex marriage?
Will it be more of a benefit or disadvantage?
Would it cause chaos or upset the population figures?

Personally, I don't think we should lah.

I think neither of it will be there

Yes and no.

Yes, it will cause chaos for those who are more conservative.
No, for the population figures. If a person don't intend to have children, may it be due to high living cost or what-so-ever reasons, no one can force them to procreate.

No, because same-sex marriage is condoning deviant behaviour.

scabstermooch SG

Yes.

As far as I can tell there are no significant disadvantages to allowing same sex marriages.

OTOH, it would mean alot to committed samesex couples if their relationship can be recognised by law.

Lowclassman SG

Are you planing to marry a same sex? Mr. Green

borgkilla SG

Mega Big move if it was allowed ,

very unlikely since even most developed nations do not have laws that allow same sex marriages..
personally I dont have an issue with it, love is love ..

missqi SG

Seriously, as long as the men in white are in power, same-sex marriage won't be approved.

vito_corleone SG

lesbians yes, gays no. Laughing

It might be, as our government is very mercenary. It will promote packages to IR for same-sex couples marriage programs.

Before you know it, same sex couples from all over the world will congregate to Singapore to tie the knot, in hopes of boosting tourism.

You must be a guy then.

One thing for sure: Every human being deserves the right to be happy. Shame on those who try to take away such rights from their fellow human beings.

hisoka SG

i'm a guy and i would say guy-guy yes and lesbainism no in enlightened self-interest Rolling Eyes

zanza SG

I'd rather not.....the results of allowing such a thing will be interesting to say the least Confused

dumbdumb! SG

life's not so simple. yeah, everyone deserve happiness. but not everyone can be happy. =)

Question 1 and 2 debate has been ongoing, and neither seems to agree with each other. Not going to write on this again...

But question 3 is very obvious. With our population aging, and allowing same sex marriage, what do you think?

ndmmxiaomayi SG

Some people are happy when killing each other. So that means it has to be legalized as well? Laughing

Should Same Sex Marriage Be Allowed In Singapore?

NO!
NO!!
AND NO!!!

its just so damn wrong. the happiness or human rights argument doesnt apply. Or else robbers would fight for the right to kill and bad singers will fight for the right to turn up the karaokae at night to the displeasure of their neighbours.

Similiarly, gay couples will tear the social fabric of our nation and soon ppl will think that its fine and normal to engage in same sex marriage.
If the gays want to carry out their own pivate activites, so be in. just dont let it be open to the public so as to not create a wrong impression/

TYING SG

How wrong can it go? It has been scientifically proven that being a homosexual can very well be due to genes too.
Also, its not entirely gay couples who tear the social fabric of our nation. What about those who engage in casual sex? those who visits prostitutes? those who have are having an affair? Are they considered the role models of our nation that we dont consider them spoiling our nation's image?
Its just the recognition of being together and not the approval of having casual sex with some one of the same sex. Its 2 different issue.

OO_OO_OO SG

thats exactly the reason why prostitution isnt allowed and casual isnt condoned.
should gay marriages be allowed, its as good as saying that society accepts gay marraiages and gay sex. what would the young think? that it is alright to find a partner of the same sex? When young kids play marraige in preschool or school, it is because of the social trend. I dont think they actually know what love is at that tender age.
Would you like to see young kids playing gay, just because society allows it? They would then grow up thinking that it is alright to be gay and vola. in no time, we have a gay society.
this would untimately have a negative effect on the minds of the people.
