Should homosexuals be allowed?

I am back! In this week entry, I will be touching on the issue of whether to allow homosexuals in Singapore society. Firstly, I would like to state my stand. I feel strongly that we should allow. The following paragraphs will illustrate my stand.

Firstly, I feel that homosexuals are just another human being even though they might be different from a normal one. They eat, sleep, do work, except that they have the liking for the same gender. For that difference, I feel they should not be discounted into the society. Majority of them have tried their best fitting into society yet still the public does not accept them. I guess those homosexuals do not want to have the liking for the same gender as well, but it is probably due to innate thinking where it is inborn within them. They cannot help it but like the same gender. For that reason, I feel we should empathize with them and accept them.

Secondly, many countries around the world have also widely accepted the idea of homosexualism. Countries like US, Britain have laws protecting the rights of homosexualism. If a small country like Singapore does not accept it, what would other countries think of us? Will we lose out? This is partially due to the fact of global influence and increasing competitiveness among countries. Every single factor is as important to determine the country's stability and power in the world.

Lastly, I feel that homosexuals should be given the chance to be contributing to the society. And this is especially in a small country like Singapore where labour is limited, every single manpower is cherished. We should not ostracize them beacuse of the special differences, for we are forgoing necessary and important manpower.

In conclusion, I feel homosexuals should be accepted by public in Singapore.
