Singapore's sex life

... is becoming healthier, but is still pretty conservative. During my bimbo years my time-killer of choice at airports was Cosmo - I couldn't believe I couldn't find it on any 'zine stand back home because it was banned. But not anymore! That, and Sex and the City (though they're as exciting as the reruns on TBS), and, uh, maybe sexy chewing gum. Once I even thought I saw a whole page on how to pole-dance in the Sunday paper's lifestyle section.

Now there's a three-day sex exhibition featuring vibrators, condoms, lingerie, and scantily-clad dancers. Sexpo 2005 was fun enough for now, but it'll get racier, the director promised. I don't think it'll go so far as strip shows and live sex demonstrations though. It kinda creeps me out that the crowd mostly consists of much older men. *shudder*
