Pre-Marital Medical Check-up

FireIce SG

do u think it's a must for a couple to go for a medical check-up before getting married?

how u think this legislation (if it's passed) will affect couples?

foxwalk SG

serious infringement on rights and privacy

FireIce SG

addtional info

this is to check for Aids and ensure it's not passed down to the children

InnoHippo SG

zodi SG

hopy SG

but maybe its a bad idea for those who sleep ard lah..

InnoHippo SG

do u think the marriage would go on smoothly if such things are found out only during Pre-Marital Medical Check-up? Confused

poon cho tang SG

less pathological liars Laughing

hopy SG

no.. but then.. to begin w/, shldn't couples who intend to get married be truthful to each other? besides, such move is to prevent more bei ju fr happening, can u imagine being the child who was born w/ AIDs? to know tt the instense u r born tt u r going to die soon? no future, no dreams n on top of tt, the stigma tt the child has to face fr the unforgiving society like sg?

InnoHippo SG

in some cases, they might get it from their ex-lovers Confused

hopy SG

InnoHippo SG

love is capable of twisting the logical mind u know Wink

I thought it's made compulsory?

Anyway I feel that it is necessary.

DeadPoet SG

Maybe strongly encourage but not compulsory? Wink

Lord Kang SG

I agree with u..Strongly encourage but not made compulsory..This is to protect one another and to protect the next generation..If did nothing wrong, why scare of going through the test??

harrow SG

I'm for compulsory.. it safeguards the both parties frm getting any STD eg HIV..

Some may one it but feel embrassed to suggest going for the checkup together as they are afraid tht the other party may feel tht there's lack of trust or whatsever, he/she may not knw how to approach the other party nicely.. if its compulsory, it saves them the touble....

DeadPoet SG

Question Who is going to pay for the check-up?

elektra SG

You! Cool
