SINGAPOREANS are exhibiting
more liberal attitudes and taking bigger risks when it comes to sex. About one
third of respondents in a survey said they believe that having sexual
intercourse with someone they meet for the first time is perfectly fine.
Another alarming statistic
was that 27.6% - or about one in four - of the 1,790 respondents polled said
they have had sex with someone they met online.
The survey, results of which
were released yesterday, was conducted by the Singapore Planned Parenthood
Association (SPPA) between July and November 2010, to find out about fertility
awareness and sexual habits among Singaporeans.
It polled individuals
between 15 and 66 years old, with about 79% of the respondents aged 35 and
below.
SPPA vice-president Edward
Ong said there was a vast increase in the number of young people having sex,
many of whom were not ready for marriage.
Citing heightened concerns
over unwanted pregnancies, abortions and sexual infections, he said that
"there's an acute need to go back to basics to inculcate responsible
sexual behaviour and contraception (use)".
Another key finding was the
wide gap between knowledge about contraception effectiveness and actual
practice. (asiaone)
Singaporeans are generally more open-minded.

di Malaysia tak seperti itu.
DeleteOpen-minded tapi ada batas2nya juga. Apa yang ada di fikiran kena di nilai baik dan buruk.
DeleteToo open-minded also not that good.
DeleteIts up to the Singaporean government to create awareness of unwanted pregnancies, abortions and sexual infections.
