Is homosexuality a blessing or a curse? when we see people of the same sex hanging out together, often, what would we think?
Gathering some information and research, I have found out that the mainstream moral values of Singaporeans are conservative and homosexual acts are unlawful, I have also discovered that based on statistics,
A survey found that 69 per cent of Singaporeans have a negative view of homosexuality, 23 per cent are positive and 8 per cent ...(www.asiaone.com/Just%2BWoman/About%2BMe/Columns/Story/A1Story20071107-35072.html - 39k -)
This truly meant that Singaporeans were still against the idea of having gays sticking around the country.
On a personal basis, I have taken a stand on NOT supporting the gay movement. For one, I think that it is definitely more of a curse rather than a blessing to have homosexuality practiced in this nation. For two, I believe that homosexuality is NOT a natural thing. Infact, I believe that this has regards with psychological issues. However, though I may not approve, it does not mean that all disapproves too. There is still 23% who are positive about this act.
How has homosexuality become a curse rather than a blessing to me? -you may ask. Here are my reasons. First, I would like to define the word homosexuals, and their practice, homosexuality.
Based on the online dictionary, homosexuals, is the sexual orientation to persons of the same sex. , and their practice, homosexuality is defined as, sexual desire or behavior directed toward a person or persons of one's own sex. which meant that an contemptible act is involved in the process of homosexuality.
Many through this act has got themselves into serious, deadly illnesses that cost their lives. Some, got influenced by the people around them, and also influenced the others into this practice, there are also cases that actually surfaces that psychotic gays using children if they had no sex partner.All these were the main concern of not supporting the gay movement, but of course, not supporting their movement does not mean we discriminate, we are still people who understand the value of humanity.
There are much more cases of why Singapore society disapproves of the homosexuality movement, but only this much would be mentioned.
Thus, weighing the pros and cons has enabled me to define that homosexuality is still a social stigma and more of a curse rather than blessing in society in today's context.
