[span class="lingo_region"]Singapore on Tuesday legalised oral and anal sex between heterosexual couples but retained a law which criminalises intercourse between gay men.  In the city-state's first major penal code amendments in 22 years, parliament repealed a section criminalising "carnal intercourse against the order of nature." [/p] Parliament however kept the penal code's section 377A, which makes sex between men a criminal offence, rejecting a petition by gay-rights activists and their non-homosexual supporters to abolish the law as well. [/p] Opponents of the law say it is a relic of British colonial rule. The law punishes offenders with up to two years in jail, although it has rarely been enforced.

The real trouble with reality is that there's no background music.

Really? I thought it was pretty much legal everywhere already?

 Somewhat difficult to enforce these types of laws, yes?!  Unless the cops sneak around with ladders and spyglasses...[span style="text-decoration: underline;"][span style="text-decoration: underline;"]

 Personally, I support the one about "failure to flush a public toilet" being criminal.  We should invoke this law in Canada.

 Good call! I didnt think about alot of middle eastern.. and to that extent african countries as well.

 When I was in Equatorial Guinee we were listening to the BBC about a case where a Nigerian woman was sentenced to being stoned to death. She was raped by her neighbor.. but she was sentenced for commiting adultery.
