  1. In the late 1990s, there were two gay clubs in Chinatown. One was Niche at Pagoda Street and the other was Taboo where Play is now. Taboo back then was a bar, with a non-smoking room. It was NOT a disco. It was a bar. BUT before that, there was Vincent's at Lucky PLaza and two karaoke bars: Inner Circle and Babylon. And of course there were the Sunday night gay nights. The first one I went to was Heartthrob at the Melia at Scotts Hotel, I remember Musicworld. Then I think that it moved to Studebaker's at Pacific Plaza, then Studebaker's became Venom, then it moved to Centro. I remember starting my partying on Thursday night at Velvet Underground, then Friday at Zouk and Taboo, and ditto on Saturday night and going to the Sunday night parties after dat. Then there was the HUGE gay dance parties - the Nation parties. I attended all the Nation parties in Singapre. The first one was at Fantasy Island on Sentosa, before the event moved to the Musical Fountain. 2001-2004, I think. I used to dance on podiums all the time and used to push ugly people off! Damn. The Singapore party scene back then as wild. Singapore at one point was a gay party destination. There was even an article in TIME magazine on it. Fuck, I feel old and I WAS a wild child. But I call it living. Can't live like that now and I sure had fun.

  6. Exodus International, the ex-gay group that insists that gay can be cured using reparative-therapy. They have announced they will shut down. Alan Chambers the president of Exodus-International also posted an apology to LGBT people on their website. http://exodusinternational.org/2013/06/exodus-international-to-shut-down/ The follwoing report from Advocate.com: http://www.advocate.com/politics/religion/2013/06/20/breaking-exodus-international-shuts-down-end-ex-gay-movement _____________________________________________________________ An Exodus From the 'Ex-Gay' Movement? The movement, which suffered the latest blow on Wednesday as Exodus International's board voted to shut down, is the subject of a new installment of Our America With Lisa Ling. BY TRUDY RING JUNE 20 2013 12:50 AM ET The nation’s most prominent ex-gay group, Exodus International, announced on its website late Wednesday that it will shut down and reemerge as a new ministry. The group had for most of its existence insisted gay people can be turned straight. Exactly what its newest iteration will become is unclear from the announcement, and a new website called "Reduce Fear" hasn't even been completed. Decades after leading U.S. mental health organizations agreed that being gay is not a disorder, a small segment of American society, driven largely by religion, has persisted in saying homosexuality is something that can and should be “cured.” While there has always been ample skepticism about the “ex-gay” movement, recent developments indicate the movement is becoming more marginal than ever —it’s not dead, but it’s certainly in critical condition. Stories are legion of those who’ve gone through so-called reparative therapy, seeking to turn from gay to straight, only to find the therapy is not only ineffective but downright harmful. Mainstream mental health professionals have condemned it. One state has outlawed it, and others are likely to follow. Even the president of Exodus International has renounced such therapy and says Exodus is no longer part of the ex-gay movement. That man, Alan Chambers, appears Thursday night on Our America With Lisa Ling, on Oprah Winfrey’s OWN network, delivering an apology (of sorts) to LGBT people who’ve been harmed by ex-gay efforts. It's timed with a written apology issued this week via the Exodus website. The shift by Chambers and Exodus, however, raises the question of just what the movement is about now — if it doesn’t profess to make gay people straight, is it offering only celibacy or the closet? A year ago, at Exodus’s annual conference, Chambers announced that the organization was renouncing reparative therapy, saying it offered false hope to those who undergo it and even harms them, while treating homosexuality differently than other “sins.” But he continues to believe that sex should be confined only to monogamous heterosexual marriages. Recently, Chambers, who had been interviewed for Our America’s “Pray the Gay Away?” episode in 2011, contacted Ling to say he wanted to make a return appearance to issue an apology for the hurt caused by ex-gay therapy. She suggested that people who had left ex-gay groups be present. “I was really surprised that Alan agreed,” she tells The Advocate. It resulted in a three-hour meeting that “was exhausting emotionally,” Ling says, and that is readily apparent in the portions featured in the new Our America episode, “God and Gays.” Chambers and his wife, Leslie, met with 10 survivors of ex-gay programs, including Michael Bussee, an Exodus founder who eventually left the group and became an out and proud gay man; Jerry, a former pastor who came out of the closet after a 26-year marriage; Catherine, who was a counselor with an ex-gay ministry and calls it “the greatest regret of my life”; Art, who believes his bipolar disorder was brought on by ex-gay therapy; and Christian, whose experience attests to the gender stereotyping and misconceptions about gays that permeate such therapy efforts — he was urged to give up his found-object art projects and pursue more “masculine” activities such as sports and gym workouts. They and the others were enlisted from an online support group run by Bussee. They gathered in the basement of Hollywood Lutheran Church in Los Angeles, a congregation affiliated with the LGBT-affirming Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. The ex-gay movement is largely a phenomenon of fundamentalist Christianity, with mainline Protestant Christian denominations accepting gay people as they are. There is also at least one Jewish ex-gay group, and the Roman Catholic Church has a ministry that seeks to help gay people lead celibate lives. Chambers says of Exodus, “Today we cease to be an ex-gay organization.” He apologizes for the hurt it has caused by promoting efforts to change sexual orientation, and he tells the survivors of ex-gay therapy, “You haven’t ever been my enemy, and I’m sorry I’ve been yours.” He says he recognizes the right of LGBT people to campaign for equality. But he also says he will not apologize for his beliefs about biblical constraints on sexual behavior. The others in the room confront him about just what Exodus is. “My cynical side would say it’s the recloseting ministry,” says Jerry. He sees Exodus’s new message as “We cannot change you, we cannot give you a happy life, but we can help you get back into the closet more comfortably.” “No matter what you change, you’re still selling that lie [about changing sexual orientation], and you know it, that’s the worst thing,” says another, Sean, who had been told he was demon-possessed and contemplated suicide because of the pain caused by ex-gay therapy. “You know, deep down inside, Alan, that it is still a bald-faced lie.”

  7. Please read my post lah.... I got the guy but there was one guy who posted to look for the same guy I have sex on that very day. Actually, you going there to have fun not looking for boyfriend, just wonder why some ppl just wanna post and look for Missed Connections when they can just go out to approached....even when they get rejected, at least they got their answers.....rather than trying their luck online looking and seeking back the same people. I just casually passed off as a "regret" but am not "hoarding" over this thought lah. Have gone passed the ages of pursuing what was past and entangling in my emotions lor.

  11. There are often two sides to a story. Many people are rude when they want something done. Have seen some classic displays of boorish behaviour by Singaporean passengers on planes and my flight attendant friends can vouch for that. Some people think that by paying hundreds of dollars for a seat, he/she as the right to treat others like dirt. It doesn't work that way.

  15. A marriage with someone u REALLY love shd be something wonderful n to be happy for, isnt it?! Since u r not feeling wonderful n happy abt it, it means u r not ready to do so. If u yourself r not happy abt this marriage, how do u expect to b able to give happiness to ur future wife n children. Btw, u r not young anymore, so pls grow up n solve ur own problem. N if u cant, pls dun get married or else ur future wife may need to help u solve many more probs in future.

  23. To be honest, nobody cares about you. Really. Everyone is just minding their own business doing their workout. Gay people are too busy checking out the hot studs to pay attention to un-hot people. So really, you have nothing to worry about. Nobody is going to notice your existence so just go there, do your workout and get out. Everyone has to start somewhere, don't be shy. I went through this phase as well, and I'm glad I abandoned these self conscous thoughts cos it turned out that they were a redundant obstacle.

    What Is Love? (Compiled)

    Love is... When he is not around, you wonder how he is... When he is sick, you wish you are the one who's in pain... When he needs you, you want to be there for him... When you are angry with him but you see him and he smiles, you forgive him right away... When he is around you, you want to hold his hand and kiss him on the face, no matter what the others around you mght think... When he kisses you, you wish the time would stop and you would kiss forever... When he sleeps, you wish you don't have to sleep and can just see him sleep peacefully... When he snores, you think it is not that loud... And eventually you will get use to it... Ahh... When you are in love... Ok, the above is just some of the feelings I have about being in love... When I love a person, I will just end up loving him more with each passing day... unless he does something really unforgivable... Or he leaves me... I guess I am a little silly in this respect...
