Guest Guess with do Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 1 hour ago, lonelyglobe said: years after years is almost the same content, how to get innovative? its strange to find there are so many alone here and wish to go but somehow we are not able to form a group to represent BW........ I think even if BW organise, the people here also won't go leh. Just a feel. I feel many LGBT people are actually happy status quo. I don't know why I feel that way. Life in Singapore is better for singles than married people, really. Even straight people don't want to get married. Why would LGBT people bother to get married. This year would be interesting as you need to flash your NRIC to get a card to protest. So we can see how many are really Singapore or PR. I also have a question. How many people here are going to wear white, for whatever reason, family, friends, church, etc... can raise hand for a feel ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pink Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 We.Wear.Pink | Saturday, June 4 Why Wear Pink? Because it is a pro-Family, pro-Singapore message! 1. It is a message to everyone that we are also people who believes in the ethos of family-building and in nation-building. The idea of a family is the basic building block of society. Regardless of what constitutes a family, a family is still a family. 2. It is a message to everyone that we have the freedom to love who we want to regardless of race, religion, SES, gender, etc. Can you imagine not being able to love someone because someone else says it is wrong? 3. It is a message to the press and society our commitment to build a progressive and inclusive Singapore. Remember, this is not a protest. This is an important message. We welcome all Singaporeans who support family values—regardless of race, language or religion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Colourless Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 How can wear pink be pro-family ? I think we should not pretend anymore. Yes, we can fight for freedom to love. But how can same sex couples produce off-spring ? If we adopt, it's still not a natural family unit, no matter how we argue. Is this the reason why fewer people are projected to attend Pink Dot this year, because many don't agree with the reasoning put forward ? To fight a cause, we should be honest and truthful. I can honestly say that if Singapore approves same sex marriage one day, it's because they try to appease us and not because they agree. An artificial family will never be the same as a natural one and they just try to accommodate our desire for a marriage. I think we should be grateful if that happens and appreciate them instead. I think if we are honest and truthful, we may get more support from them, really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Colourless Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 12 hours ago, nogun said: I feel that pink dot should invite the entire government to come and educated them what freedom of love means and let then understand the discrimination gay people face while we also must highlights the contribution gay people done for the society during pinkdot event an important showcase how the ignorant fear gay people base on lack of knowledge,thus educating them while young in school will help prevent discrimination , education knowledge is not promoting gay life style but teaching about diversity that exist within reality ,bringing social tolerance and understanding,an awareness that will help progress a. Conservative country to an open and updated one. Pink dot is an event that celebrates and brings awareness not to just gay people but to those who believe in unconditional love,true love!^^ I don't think the government will come since pinky himself didn't come. Why not invite the oppositions who claim that they support LGBT instead ? We can test them to see if they are really supporters of LGBT or just making use of LGBT for political points. If they don't come, then we know we cannot trust them anymore. Who can we invite ? Let's list them here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Colourless Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 http://www.todayonline.com/singapore/network-churches-revives-campaign-wear-white-pink-dot-weekend Network of churches revives campaign to wear white on Pink Dot weekend BY REGINA MARIE LEE reginalee@mediacorp.com.sg PUBLISHED: 9:25 PM, MAY 23, 2016 SINGAPORE — A campaign urging the public to wear white to promote traditional family values will be held again — this time led by Christian pastor Lawrence Khong — to coincide with the annual Pink Dot rally championing the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community next month. The campaign was first held two years ago by Islamic religious teacher Noor Deros under the name of Wearwhite, but Mr Noor said the movement has since moved on to focus on educational programmes, and has no plans to carry out the campaign this year. Mr Khong’s iteration of the campaign is dubbed We.Wear.White, and calls on the public to wear white on June 4 and 5 as a “pro-family, pro-Government, pro-Singapore message”. It comes as the Pink Dot rally, to be held at Hong Lim Park on June 4, is set to introduce a new format this year — allowing local participants to hold up placards instead of the customary pink torchlights, a move organisers said was aimed at letting people “have a say”. The rally saw attendance grow to a record 28,000 people last year. Mr Khong, chairman of LoveSingapore, a 100-strong network of Christian churches, said on the LoveSingapore Facebook page on May 19 that the campaign hopes to show that the church’s stance on heterosexual marriage and the “natural family” is in keeping with the social norms of “Singapore’s conservative majority”. “It is a message to LGBT activists that there is a conservative majority in Singapore who will push back and will not allow them to promote their homosexual lifestyle and liberal ideologies that openly and outrightly contradict our laws, our Government’s stated policies, our national core values, and the conservative majority’s views on public morality, marriage and family,” said Mr Khong, who is also senior pastor at Faith Community Baptist Church. The call was open to all Singaporeans regardless of race, language or religion, as long as they supported “pro-natural family values”, he added. Mr Khong has regularly spoken out against homosexuality and had also thrown his support behind the Wearwhite campaign in 2014, igniting vigorous public debate and prompting other religious organisations to interject, while Pink Dot organisers deployed additional security in light of the public opposition. The National Council of Churches of Singapore said then that while it does not condone homosexual or bisexual practices, it also does not condemn those who are struggling with their gender identity and sexual orientation. The Islamic Religious Council of Singapore called for a non-confrontational approach and said programmes conducted in mosques should not be seen as a movement to oppose members of the LGBT community. When contacted on Monday (May 23), Mr Noor expressed support for LoveSingapore’s call, but said that Wearwhite’s focus now is on “directed Islamic educational programmes” for youth. “We decided that real education in contrast to sloganeering and campaigning is the key to an effective and long term change,” he said. Last year, LoveSingapore also called on church members to wear white to weekend services on the Pink Dot weekend. Wearwhite did not hold a campaign to coincide with the Pink Dot rally, but it called on Muslims to dress in white on the first evening prayer to mark the start of Ramadan on June 17. Mr Noor said it was done not as a counter-reaction to Pink Dot, but to spread awareness on the concept of “freedom and love according to Islam”. In response to TODAY’s queries, Pink Dot spokesperson Paerin Choa cited churches and religious communities that accept and embrace LGBT people, such as the Free Community Church. “In a multi-cultural, multi-religious and multi-racial country like Singapore with secularism at its core, citizens are generally accepting of diversity,” he said. “We believe that families should be built on love and understanding, rather than exclusion.” Mr Khong could not be reached for comment as of press time.

Guest Speak no evil Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 Kudos to the sane and non-reactional wearwhite muslim community! They seem to understand, accept and respect the concept of multi-culturalism better than the lovesingapore group, which comes across as more stiff-necked, dogmatic and pedantic.

The "not in my backyard" and "if it's not broken, don't fix it" mindset is very strong in SG. Unless we make the gay problem a straight problem also, they will never want to address it. It's high time we change the Pink Dot slogan to "Don't want your own daughters to marry a gay man? Support gay rights and exterminate discrimination against gay", because to them, love between two gay men will always be bullshit no matter what.

Most liberal minded people think this way and it is honest and truthful. Only the conservative people had to twist and turn what pro family means. What if the natural father likes to rape his daughter? A Pro family organization without love like the wear white people is stubborn and wont listen to anything. They will just throw out their children if they found out they are gay so i dont think the wear white people is any Pro family. spr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being liberal minded does not mean it's always right, honest and truthful. And I think if you compare liberals and conservatives, the liberal people are the more creative ones in twisting and turning. A lot of people fall in love but do not want to have a family. So I guess Love =/= Family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abang Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 I try .. If you are going there for the first time or solo, pm me. We can have a group of BW friends ... I have been quite fortunate in the past year to have seated just infront of the stage. Just bring your army poncho/groundsheet and we shall take turns to guard our belongings. Don't forget your sunblock and mobile fans...you can get a small fan for under $5. One trick you must do - put a bottle of water (flavoured or otherwise) into the freezer overnight. Let the ice melts slowly and you will always have a cold/cool drink during the celebration. This year, it is stated that the event begins at 3 p.m. Hence it is advisable to meet slightly earlier, like 2 p.m. This will give us ample time to browse at the stalls.

So that is a null point. Next time, when your bf is in the hospital and needs someone to sign off medical procedures, you will realise how important marriage is when the right to make decisions isn't in your hands but his homophobic parents. Decisions like who is called in case of an emergency and who is allowed to come visit is no longer up to you. In fact, they could outright tell the medical staff to ban you from their son and the staff have to comply because it's completely legal. When you experienced how helpless you can be without the law to protect the status of you as the next of kin, you will realize why marriage is important.

Guest NOMORE Posted June 4, 2016 Report Share Posted June 4, 2016 Why I Would Never Go to Pink Dot Again I've attended Pink Dot for the past 5 years, and have always been an avid supporter, but this is why I am boycotting Pink Dot this year. I've watched the local gay pride movement grow from strength to strength as Pink Dot's turnout numbers steadily increased over the years. I was always amazed by how well organized our Pink Dot activists are, but what was even more amazing was how their ability to organize themselves put many of our political parties to shame. I used to think that Pink Dot was the one annual happy occasion where people came out to show the world that love is stronger than hate. But I won't be attending Pink Dot this year. Or any other years for that matter. This is coming from someone who has their fair share of LGBT friends and feels deeply for their plight of ostracization. But the Lawrence Khong Ikea sagaleft an extremely bitter taste in my mouth. Just to be clear: I am not a fan of Khong. I think he has espoused many a vile idea in the past but I believe he is entitled to his right to free speech. And his right to earn a living. The Ikea saga had in my mind, exposed a very ugly side of our pro gay community. I silently watched while people on my facebook feed screamed that Khong's magic show should be boycotted and shut down. That he shouldn't be granted any platforms to air his views despite the glaring fact that Khong was simply putting on a magic show performance. That it was shameful for Ikea to help sell tickets for Khong's magic show just because he has been public with his anti gay stance in the past. I tried to reason with some of the rabid "anti Khongers" within my circle but they wouldn't back down from their position. They justified their frenzy by saying it was just for them to oppress someone who was hell-bent on oppressing them. When I asked if they were a part of an active coordinated boycott campaign to strike against Khong. "The reporters egged us on. This is not a boycott. We didn't call for a boycott or organize a boycott. But people are free to boycott if they want." was the glib response I got. "The point of a free society is to tolerate a wide range of views whether you like them or not. But your actions towards Khong totally flies in the face of your message of inclusivity and acceptance." was all I could think about when I read their response. It was a wake up call that made me recoil. And that was when I made my decision to never attend Pink Dot ever again. Will I ever rejoin my fellow Singaporeans in pink solidarity at Hong Lim Park? Maybe when our pro gay side finally decides to practice what it preaches. Until then I shall wear pink at home come Pink Dot day. http://freshgrads.sg/articles/current-affairs/2545-why-i-would-never-go-to-pink-dot-again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one is allowed to verify his claim. If the woman or child is not comfortable, she is a bigot and will be dealt with by the security. There is no security for woman anymore. It's not the transgender at fault nor the LGBT cause they are not the one that issued this decree for man to walk into the woman's toilet (the man does not have to be a transgender. he just need to say I'm a transgender EVEN is he is not one). This is the type of peace that is gotton from Gay Marriage and in the future, Pink Dot. Even liberals do not agree with this. She is a democrat liberal working for the ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union). Why blame conservatives and the religious when the liberals are against it too ! The head of the ACLU's Georgia chapter resigned because of President Obama's transgender directive requiring public schools to allow students to use the bathroom of the gender they identify with. Maya Dillard Smith told The Kelly File she took a stand on the issue after witnessing three transgender young adults over six feet tall with deep voices enter a women's restroom, which frightened her elementary school age daughters. She said the ACLU didn't provide "the opportunity for robust discourse on the competing civil rights" of LGBT equality and religious freedom. Smith, a Democrat, said she is open-minded about the issue and wanted to learn more about it through a debate, but the ACLU was not agreeable to it. She added that the same thing applies in the case of religious freedom bills that have been passed in the United States. "It became very evident to me that the ACLU and myself were simply principally and philosophically unaligned on a number of issues," she said.

He's against everything LGBT. Obvious from the way he targets 377a and the acceptance of gay people in wider society. spr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
