SINGAPORE — The Science Centre has cancelled a talk on sex and gender following public feedback and social media pressure about the content and the line-up of speakers, which comprised lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) activists.
In response to queries from TODAY on Monday (June 3), Science Centre said: “Following online publicity of the session, we had received public feedback expressing concern about the content to be discussed in the session, as well as the composition of the speakers.

“We have reviewed the session and decided to not proceed with it.”
The talk “What’s the difference between sex and gender?”, was initially slated to be held on June 14 at 6.30pm at the Golden Village x The Projector in Cineleisure mall along Orchard Road.
The speakers for the event included youth counsellor Alexander Teh from pro-LGBTQ group Oogachaga, a drag queen known as Becca D’Bus, as well as Dr Mie Hiramoto, an associate professor at the National University of Singapore (NUS) who is also deputy principal investigator of the NUS Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences' gender and sexuality research cluster.

Science Centre, a statutory board under the Ministry of Education (MOE), said that the purpose of the session was to discuss the “sociocultural factors that shape society’s understanding of sex and gender”.
“The Science Centre Singapore regularly organises ticketed dinner events under our Science Cafe event series, where we promote interest in science and curiosity through featuring speakers from diverse disciplines who share their views on particular subjects.”

In past sessions, the Science Cafe has examined topics such as the impact of ageing, the rapid development of messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) vaccines during the Covid-19 pandemic, and the impact of artificial intelligence on artistic developments.
“All sessions are limited to guests aged 18 and above,” the centre added.
A post publicising the talk was put up on the Science Centre’s Facebook page on Sunday at 12pm. About seven hours later, it was announced in an update to the post that the event was cancelled and ticket buyers would receive a full refund.

ONLINE REACTIONS​

As of Monday evening, the Facebook post has had more than 140 comments, 80 reactions and 30 shares.

One Facebook user named “Bernard Lim” wrote: “As a grandparent, I am appalled and deeply disappointed that a well-respected public institution as Science Centre Singapore is allowing such contentious, confusing and controversial issues to be introduced to young minds.”
Another user by the name “Lance Kuan” wrote: “By having only well-known LGBTQ activists in the panel, how can the discussion be belanced and objective?”
Some people called for the Science Centre to “stick to the science”, with one Facebook user called “Andy Koh” writing: “Just focus on real science, please.”
Others lamented what they described as a lost opportunity.
Facebook user “Issac James Neo” said: “I am interested in learning more about this topic and am saddened to see it will be cancelled. If there is a way to continue the dialogue in another form, I would be interested in attending.”

Another by the name of “Taara Kumar” wrote: “Discussions that are backed by sociocultural knowledge and lived experiences and research are important for a healthy society, but so many seem to be so extremely insecure about their own ability to be discerning adults that they'd rather no one have this learning opportunity.”
On Sunday, Protect Singapore, which describes itself as a group that aims to protect the values of marriage, family, children and conscience, posted in its Telegram group about the Science Centre’s talk, expressing its disapproval and urging its members to voice their concerns.
In the post, Protect Singapore said that the talk is “likely biased” since the panel of speakers are known LGBTQ activists and the session was using science as a “pretext of the discussion when gender studies and their results are known to be highly controversial and unproven”.
The group added: “Such ‘gender ideologies’ are divisive and stand against the promises of the government to protect the definition of marriage and family values in SG, and should not be propagated by key governmental agencies like MOE and the Science Centre.”
On Monday, after the Science Centre had cancelled the talk, Protect Singapore posted an update saying it is “glad” that its actions have “made a difference”.
The group thanked the people who responded with comments or had written to MOE and the Science Centre.

“Your prompt and clear voices have made an immediate difference, with Science Centre changing its course within four hours of our call to action,” the group said.
“We welcome discussions in the public space on this complex issue regarding gender dysphoria, but panels should be better curated, and should include organisations and individuals who provide scientific information on sex and gender.
“Our society would be better served with truth and science instead of ideologies.”
TODAY has reached out to Protect Singapore for comment.

WHAT THE LGBTQ COMMUNITY SAYS​

One of the speakers for the talk, drag queen Becca D’Bus, told TODAY that she was “sad” but “wasn’t too surprised” by the outcome.
“I think an attempt to create a space for information sharing for folks over 18 that is casual and social is great,” she said. “I think that what the event was centred on is worth talking about, clearly if it draws this kind of fire.”
A statement from Oogachaga said that Mr Teh, one of the speakers, was very much looking forward to speaking at the event.
In the statement, he said: “It feels extremely unfair that an opportunity for people who are curious and want to learn more about the diversity of sex and gender from different perspectives is being denied simply because others do not deem the subject fit to be explored.”
Mr Leow Yangfa, executive director of Oogachaga, said in the statement that the group is very “dismayed” and “disappointed” that the Science Centre has cancelled an event that had been planned since late last year.
TODAY has reached out to Dr Hiramoto for comment.
On the cancellation of the event, Mr Clement Tan, speaking on behalf of LGBT rights group Pink Dot SG, said that topics of sex and gender "can and should be discussed openly, grounded in facts, data and the latest research".
He pointed out that events such as this are legally organised, ticketed affairs held in private venues and typically intended for adult audiences only.
"No one is being forced to attend such events, but denying others the opportunity contradicts Singapore’s ‘live and let live’ approach and, more concerning, stifles necessary and open discussions vital for a more inclusive society,” he added.

So the LGBT crack pot is trying to establish a foothold here by organizing such brainwashing session ? Kick thier butts.
