Why Singapore cannot let loose on censorship. And sexual ideas.
Well firstly, in case you didn’t know, Singapore is still in its infant stages on letting go on its censorship policies. As in with regards to sexual content on the TV, in the movies, and those in the newspaper, you know, avenues of media, there is possibly no way Singapore can let loose. We would just all go havoc.
Ok, perhaps you need to know why first to understand my view.
Let us take a trip to STOMP, the forums/newsboard thingy highly publicised by Straits Times as their pet project.
If you would then click on Talkback, then go to “I confess…” you would see that many Singaporeans are very open and yet immature about their sexual knowledge. I don’t feel the necessity to pollute my mind in order to educate you, but honestly, is there a need to share with the good, upright citizens of Singapore, the size of your assets, how often you take part indulging in night activities alone, in pairs, or with a crowd?
I doubt so.
And neither should you be so open about it. And no, I won’t go around doing beastly stuff to girls, nor their property if I am one day single at 40.
While we need to develop the open mindset, it does not mean that we should show an open mindset, nor should we be open about the intimate details in our life. No one should go through the horrors of knowing what you do secretly. We keep secrets for a reason, you know. If you’re a virgin, do you need to tell the world?
I wouldn’t want to.
Perhaps, it is a bid to desensitize Singaporeans to the idea of promiscuity, P.D.As, and also sex should not be done when you’re 16 and above. We promote condoms, safe sex, that having AIDS is not hip and cool, and warts on your $%@@%$#$ isn’t a great thing to boast about, but who really tells people who are making out on the bus to stop their exchange of bodily fluids? Or that they should really get a room? All in their faces, more so?

And of course, I love Singapore’s education, and especially how they go about doing practicals during sex education.

Conclusion: Singapore cannot loosen up too much.
