Singapore s gay community Monday hailed a plan to decriminalize sex between men as a triumph of love over fear, but warned there is still a long way to equality and adidas originals hombre new bans on same-sex unions could entrench discrimination against them.Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong caught many by surprise when he announced in his National Day Rally speech Sunday that the government would repeal Section 377A of the Penal Code, a colonial-era law that made sex between men punishable by up to two years in jail.
