The city-state of Singapore is a melting pot of Chinese, Malay and Indian influences. This is one of the most popular destinations in South East Asia, albeit one that is seen as a closed book when it comes to sex. Singapore is notoriously traditionalist in its views of sex, homosexuality and one night stands.
And yet it also houses Geylang; one of the most famous red light districts in the world. Similarly, Orchard Road is legendary for its shopping options⦠but it also has a tower referred to as the Four Floors of Whores. What gives?! The attitude towards sex in Singapore is largely conservative and traditional. Casual sex within the context of a one night stand is unusual amongst Singapore women.
The act of prostitution itself is even rarer. Public displays of affection are generally frowned upon in Singaporean society, as is nudity and any kinds of drunken debauchery. However, paradoxically, if you are happy to have sex with Thais, Indonesians, Filipinas and other Asian ladies, you will be spoiled for choice. If you want to have a one night stand in Singapore, chances are you will have a lot more luck by heading straight to the party scene.
Picking up girls in bars and hotel lobbies for a night of passion and then going your separate ways? Singaporean girls are sexy but conservative, pic from Flickr by maxtacy. Some stunning ladies here. Prostitution in Singapore follows the lead of similar Asian destinations whereby the act of prostitution itself is legal, but it is illegal to make money from the earnings of a prostitute, or via a brothel.
It is a rather complicated situation , and the law is only partially enforced. In reality, there are many brothels located in a controlled and semi-regulated region of Geylang. Prostitutes are required to undergo regular health checks and to carry a health card at all times. While the police will occasionally crack down on brothels outside of designated red light areas, the reason is usually to control immigration rather than prostitution.
