Abstract

The article discusses the author's purpose of extending the application of pinkwashing and homonationalism to Singapore with Singapore's partners in the project particularly U.S. educational institutions as his point of entry. Topics discussed include Singapore's experiment with pinkwashing and homononationalism in the years 2001-4 and claims that Singapore is a gay paradise where local gay activists and economic planners found common ground in promoting Singapore as a queer playground.
