In Singapore, prostitution by women is legal if carried out at approved areas, but soliciting is an offence. Anal and oral sex as well as frontal nudity are forbidden under some circumstances and Playboy magazine remains on the ban list and TV shows like Sex and the Single Girl stays unaired. Pornography is banned in Singapore. People possessing or selling pornographic material can be sentenced to up to two years in prison. Despite this it is not uncommon to see pornographic videos sold discreetly on the streets at night.
There are some members-only pornography stores that require a password to get in. In the Time sex survey 20 percent of males and 11 percent of females said they had watched pornography in the past three months. When asked if they ever used cybersex, 16 percent of males and nine percent of females said yes.
Those found guilty can be jailed for up to three months, or fined, or both. But the jury is out as to what local authorities deem obscene, with the police advising interested parties to consult their lawyers first before setting up shop. Efforts to loosen up have been mostly cosmetic. Playboy magazine is banned entirely.
Still, government censors clip nudity from television shows and films, and authorities ban home satellite dishes that may beam in channels not carried by state-run broadcasters. Under Singapore law, oral sex, anal sex and homosexual intercourse were all defined as acts "against the law of nature" and punishable by up to 10 years' imprisonment.
