toastwire: Step up Singaporeans! In Singapore, Pink Dot is an annual LGBT event being held which would be the closest thing we would have to a pride event here in our conservative nation. It stands for raising awareness on the freedom to love anyone regardless of gender. Giving in to pressure homophobic people, the Singapore government initially discouraged foreign corporations from sponsoring the event which ironically led towards a surge of 100+ local companies stepping forth to support the event. In its latest display of action, the government has banned all foreigners from participating in the event as well in an obvious attempt to discriminate us LGBT people further. Here I am, speaking as an illustrator and a Gay Singaporean for us Singaporeans to step up this time to show Singapore how much the freedom of love means to us. We have 100+ local companies behind our backs, we can’t stop now! Show the world we are here! #pinkdotsg #pinkdot #lgbt #gay #gayrights #pride #singapore #sgboy #pink #events #lovewins #love #freedomtolove #singapore -- source link
