Singapore is repealing its controversial 377A gay sex law.

But it's not all good news.

Because at the exact same time, the government is making it impossible for same-sex partners to marry by amending their constitution.

One step forward, two steps back.

What is Section 377A? Why is it being repealed? What do Singaporeans think about it? And what does this constitutional amendment mean for same-sex partners who want to marry?

We'll answer those questions (and many more) in today's episode of Queer Questions!
