LGBTQ culture in Singapore

The Infocomm Media Development Authority's policies on content on free-to-air television that it should not promote or justify the homosexual lifestyle.

[1] The 2020 Mediacorp's Chinese TV series, My Guardian Angels, was criticised by the LGBT community in Singapore for perpetuating the stereotype that gay men are paedophiles and have sexually transmitted diseases.

[1] The sub-plot was also condemned by Action For Aids, a Singaporean non-governmental organisation "dedicated to fighting HIV/AIDS infection", who stated that "The portrayal of gay men as paedophiles further perpetuates falsehoods that create further suffering among an already marginalised and stigmatised population."

[1][2] In response to the criticism, Mediacorp issued an apology, stating that it had "no intention to disrespect or discriminate against the LGBTQ community in the drama".
