Don't assume that Singaporeans are backward. Global access to information and the rapid economic advancement of this small island nation have created a mobile and progressive generation of educated, fit, English-speaking young men and women of diverse cultural backgrounds. The art of conversation is alive and well here and you will make fast friends who won't be afraid to challenge your thinking with their own opinions. Green, modern and organized, The Lion City is also a haven for well-to-do expats.....
In fact, Singapore has Asia's hottest gay scene going these days. Nobody would have predicted ten years ago that Bangkok would become dully conservative while Singapore would ascend to the wild heights last explored by the party men of 1970s San Francisco. Nobody but us. Singapore (along with Tokyo) has always been one of those round-the-clock fun factories, only now its scene has moved indoors from serene tropical cruise beaches, steamy inner-city jungle gardens, and dark, decaying Chinatown alleys.

Singapore massage and saunas
A scan through the Utopia and fridae internet sites reveals a number of massage places and saunas in Singapore.
As I may be staying in SIN for a night or two soon, I would love to hear any opinions about these places, from recent visitors.
I am far from being the fit, buffed type to be found in some saunas, so would be interested in a place which was more body and age tolerant.
The interne sites for massage parlours highlight the massage skills, and toned bodies of the staff. But there is not much else tin the way of information on offer.
Can someone give a comparison between these SIN massage places, and those in Thailand. I'm interested to compare the services offered, whether the SIN places are just a pretense for 'special services', as in Thailand, and how the costs would compare.
Also interested to hear how anybody found the saunas to be, and which might be recommended or not.
Thanks for any information offered.
