It's nice to have those reminders that you didn't end up with this person by accident.
Out of curiosity, what is the prevailing cultural attitude towards transgenderism (for lack of a better word) in Singapore?
We have myriad attitudes, given the diversity of races and religions here. I would say, the more religious someone is, the less tolerant s/he would be towards transgender people. It’s not unheard of for these individuals to be estranged from their families
I would say, on the whole, we are less tolerant than the Thais or Filipinos. The Thais are predominantly Buddhist and may think that transgenders are innately that way because they didn’t gain enough karma from their past lives. (As far as I know from my understanding about Thai culture)

Thanks. I asked because I had the impression some of the neighboring cultures were very accepting.
