Transgender Singapore πΈπ¬πΈπ¬πΈπ¬
Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people in Singapore face challenges that non-LGBT people do not. Same-sex sexual activity between men is illegal, even if consensual and private, and the Attorney General of Singapore has stated that prosecutions under Section 377A sometimes still occur. Although some media sources claim that the law is not properly enforced. Same-sex relationships are not recognized by law, and same-sex couples adopting children is illegal. There is no anti-discrimination protection for LGBT people.
Singaporean society is generally considered to be conservative. Despite this, LGBT events such as Pink Dot have been held annually since 2009 and attendance is growing. In accordance with global trends, attitudes towards representatives of the LGBT community are gradually changing and becoming more acceptable and tolerant, especially among young people.
