Well, without trying to go off topic too far.... I have no issue with Singapore's somewhat paternalistic legal framework. I just would prefer to live in a liberal democracy in which the government does not feel that it needs to regulate every aspect of life, such as flushing the toilet. Countries like Singapore and Switzerland are lovely, well ordered societies... I just wouldn't want to live there. Especially as I am gay, and the law doesn't much like that either!
That doesn't mean I want to live with Troy's room-mate... and his propensity for leaving gifts, I just don't want the government poking it's nose into my ablutions.
