The Health Promotion Board's new FAQ is making waves for presenting a pretty balanced view on homo- and bisexuality, including shockers like “Yes, homosexuals can certainly have long-lasting relationships. A homosexual relationship, like any other relationship, is based on values like trust, love, commitment and support.” Although there are plenty of intelligent voices in the debate, we also came across lots of pseudoscience and unsupported claims. Here are five of the worst offenders.

"I cannot agree that ‘A same-sex relationship is not too different from a heterosexual relationship’. [The statement goes] against the Government’s policy of promoting heterosexual married couples to have healthy relationships and to build stable nuclear and extended family units." - Mountbatten MP Lim Biow Chuan on Facebook

"It has an implicit pro-homosexuality stance which I believe is detrimental to our society." - Blogger Aaron's petition to review the FAQ

"America started out with normalizing homosexuality. 'Anti-discrimination' laws and same-sex unions were eventually rolled out, against majority opinions. What do we have today? A series of discriminary lawsuits and bullying against people who wishes to hold on to their own moral values and faith. Churches and clergymen are forced to perform 'marriages' against their conscience, on what is immoral. Self-declared 'transgender' man can go into woman toilets and changing rooms. Children as young as 5-7 are being taught about homosexual SEXUAL activities. Pedophilia is getting foothold now that APA is delisting it as a mental disorder, based on the same rationale that pro-gay activists used, that it is 'born and natural'." - RayWing Ng makes great cognitive leaps on Facebook

"A heterosexual relationship is natural and normal, with the capacity to procreate. This is based on the fact that male and female bodies are sexually complementary. In contrast, such sexual complementarity does not exist between two people of the same sex. A homosexual relationship is, therefore, unnatural, abnormal, and procreation is impossible." - so many things wrong with Faith Community Baptist Church pastor Lawrence Khong's letter to MyPaper

"There’s no denying that the attempts and some success of the LGBT in normalizing their deviant, abnormal and unnatural lifestyle had definitely stroke the desires of the paedophiles to do the same, especially in arguing and twisting paedophilia as an sexual orientation." - Fred Oniel on Lawrence Khong's Facebook

The FAQ, which has turned into a national issue, will be discussed in parliament on Feb 17. Meanwhile, read our investigative survey of what it's like to be gay in Singapore.
