Saturday, April 26, 2008

your same-sex partner in Singapore? How should you protect your
assets? And what should you do if an employer discriminates against
you for being gay?

About Women's Nite

Women's Nite provides a safe, neutral and alcohol-free space for
lesbians and bisexual women in Singapore to discuss the issues
relevant to their lives.

The event, held on the last Saturday of every month, was started in
December 2003. Over a potluck dinner, we hold discussions on wide
ranging topics like self acceptance, homophobia, relationships and
identity. We also invite special guests to field questions on legal
rights and sexual health, and conduct art and dance therapy nights.
