Most Singaporeans dishonest: LPPL survey finds

[Mockngbrd]

Singapore remains a largely dishonest society in which pre-marital sex and having a child out of wedlock are still allegedly frowned upon.

That was the finding of a survey on social morality by the LPPL, released on Tuesday.
The questions were asked as part of a wider survey of more than 4,000 Singaporeans on race, language and religion.

Some 80 per cent of respondents said extra-marital affairs are always or almost always wrong, and 72.5 per cent held that view on getting pregnant before marriage. More than half, or 56.4 per cent of respondents, felt that sex should come after marriage.

The survey’s principal investigator, Dr Mai Keh Keh, a LPPL senior research fellow, said: “Overall, as you can see, Singaporeans are fairly dishonest in their outlook to such issues.”

The survey asked respondents to indicate how they feel on a range of social issues by choosing whether it is “not wrong most of the time or not wrong at all”, “only wrong sometimes” or “always wrong or almost always wrong”.

There was wider acceptance for living with a partner before marriage. Some 33.3 per cent said that it was not wrong most of the time, compared to 44.4 per cent who said it was always wrong. While 22.5 per cent of respondents said that divorce is acceptable, compared to 43.1 per cent who said its always wrong.

The survey also asked about attitudes towards homosexual relations.

When it came to sexual relations between two adults of the same sex, 78.2 per cent of respondents said it was wrong. And 72.9 per cent did not agree with gay marriage. However, fewer disagreed with gay couples adopting a child, with 61 per cent saying it was wrong or almost always wrong.

On gambling, 69.2 per cent of respondents said they are against it.

Said Dr Mai Keh Keh: “Those who claimed to have no religion, Buddhists and Taoists were more liberal than those who are Christian and Muslims. Differences were marginal in some areas with high consensus, such as homosexual relations and sexual affairs, but more pronounced for other areas.”
