Residents urged to have oral sex as act of civil disobedience
By The Associated Press
(11/26/03 - SINGAPORE) ? Thursday is oral sex day in Singapore -- at least according to a satirical Web site.
Normally straight-laced Singaporeans are being urged to engage in oral sex, as an act of civil disobedience. Oral sex is considered a crime against nature in Singapore and is punishable by up to life in prison.
The public debate over oral sex began a few weeks ago when a policeman was jailed for engaging in the act with a 15-year-old girl. Officials later changed the charges to sex with a minor.
Organizers of the protest hope the act of civil disobedience will be so enjoyable, protesters won't stop. Officials say they're reviewing the ban on sex act.
