Honestly, I was Tempted to be Gay in China. In as much as the temptation was really appealing and nice, I had to do what I had to do. While in China, I played for a soccer team, where a rich teammate was trying to lure me into being his Girlfriend/boyfriend. Here is also facts about Homosexuality in China.
Facts about Homosexuality in China
China’s acceptance of homosexuality has been slow. Even today, it’s not socially acceptable outside a few major cities on the east coast.
Homosexuality was illegal in China until 1997 and classified as a mental disorder until 2001. [Wikipedia “LGBT rights by country or territory”; BBC News “Being gay in China: Your stories”]
In 2009, China held its first-ever gay pride event—Shanghai Pride week—12 years after homosexuality was decriminalized. While there has been an “unmistakable blossoming of gay life, even if largely underground…official tolerance has its limits. Gay publications and plays are banned, gay Web sites are occasionally blocked and those who try to advocate for greater legal protections for lesbians and gay men sometimes face harassment from the police.”
