Gay photo exhibition banned

Gay rights in Singapore are on the wane after an exhibition of photographs depicting same sex couples kissing was banned by censors.

Organisers of the exhibition, entitled Kissing, were refused a licence by city authorities on the grounds that the pictures “promote a homosexual lifestyle.”

Alex Au, who took the photographs, reportedly said: “It’s absurd to think that gay people do not also kiss, and that representation of such a reality would be subversive.”
