About Singapore

A city-state and global trading hub shaped by Malay, Chinese, Indian and international influences.

Queer History

British colonial rule introduced section 377A in 1938, criminalizing sexual acts between men even though it was rarely enforced in its final years. Pink Dot began in 2009 and became a major public gathering; parliament repealed section 377A in 2022, while same-sex marriage remains unrecognized.

LGBTQ+ Culture

Singapore has a compact, well-established LGBTQ+ nightlife and community scene. Consensual sex between men was decriminalised, while same-sex marriage remains unavailable.
