groyn88 Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 (edited) The campaign launch event of Pink Dot 2016 was held at 7pm on Thursday, 21 April 2016 at The Projector, located on level 5 of Golden Mile Tower along Beach Road. Hosts Deryne Sim and Paerin Choa started the event off by having a recap and showing the audience the previous year's campaign video.

wuyong Posted April 24, 2016 Report Share Posted April 24, 2016 Superb video showing how someone can reconcile her faith and sexuality. Everyone of us in the LGBT community struggle for some kind of reprieve from being stigmatized in our society, but the greater struggle for me comes from within. I think adopting a certain philosophy or faith is in essence a never-ending form of seeking and appropriating, and this is exactly what spirituality means. The question isn't "What do I believe in?" but "What does it mean to live in faith?", and even up to the present I am in the process of reorienting my worldview into actual practice. Personally my faith comes closest to christianity, with influences from other spiritual sources as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a social group of people, we are already a minority within the population, and though it's tough to continuously push for equal rights from the government against our religiously straight counterparts and anti-homosexual lobbyists, we ourselves within the community must realize that discrimination doesn't just end there. There is more to the picture than a Gay Chinese Male asking for his rights, there are the other ethnic races - minority or not. There are the lesbian women, transgender men and women. We are all not so different, but yet we criticize each social division so harshly. Turn on your grindr, you see profiles explicitly stating no FEMS, no MALAY, no SISSY - or you verbally mumble to yourself "Ee Yer, why that one so Ah Gau so flamboyantly! So Embarrassing to our people!". I mean comon guys, we are very progressive people, you have ought to do better being the racial majority! I'm glad pink dot is highlighting showcases on folks that do not often get much attention within the LGBT community, and it's heartwarming to share their love, joys, hard truths, pain and sadness altogether.
