No, it's not.  The Supreme Court has ruled on it.
Local jurisdictions that pass laws in contradiction
to the recognizing the full legal rights of same-sex
couples and their families are being slapped around
by higher courts.  Socially there are still issues,
but legally, same-sex family legal rights are settled
in the US, as they are in Canada and in many European
countries.

So, the question stands: will the familial and
parental rights of people in same-sex relationships
be respected in Singapore?

Carry on laughing now, if you wish.
