Hot hunks in tiny speedos! Yes, you’ve guessed it right! In this episode, we interview the casts, Jeremy Lee and Lim Wee Hong from the play “The Swimming Instructor”. We were also HONOURED to interview its director, which is the all famously fabulous heroine-of-Singapore-gay-world, Loretta Chen!

Hear Jeremy Lee and Wee Hong share about their experience and thoughts in this play orally!

We also talked about Loretta’s thoughts after MM Lee’s response to her question about censorship in Singapore, which directed him to speak about his thoughts on homosexuality, now widely quoted.

She is so FABULOUS!!

QueerCast #24: LKY comments… and we bitch about it!

Everyone knows by now that after a question asked by Loretta Chen, whom we interviewed a few episodes ago for the play 251, Minister Mentor Lee Kwan Yew has a lot to say about his views on homosexuality.

en20070423_1_1_pic2.jpgIn this episode, we try to dissect what he said by exploring the contradictions, what it means for us, and how you can play a part.

On another note, a recent “alert” was posted on a mailing list called “Catholic Lawyers”. It was calling the mailing list subscribers to file feedbacks to the government to criminalise homosexuality, clearly based on their Catholic religious beliefs, and screams fundamentalism as its motive was completely drawn according to their unique interpretation of biblical values.

Full text of the email here: http://nicky-bitchy.livejournal.com/35014.html

They can file their homophobic feedbacks all they want, and so can we. Information on that after the jump.

You may file your responses to the government by going to http://www.reach.gov.sg. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on “Something to say? […] Email us today”. If you do not know what you can write, read here and post it up as it is, if you feel that the passage relates to you the same. (http://nicky-bitchy.livejournal.com/35014.html)

Do your part for the community, because you are part of the community.
