Xinyu Wen traveled to Thailand in June, planning a two-week vacation around Bangkok’s Pride parade. But the 28-year-old ended up staying a month and a half, soaking up the Thai capital’s thriving LBGTQ+ community.
Yeah, a lot of people seem to think that Communists are more LGBT friendly than average governments, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.

Yes, China censors actual kissing and physical contact in their LGBTQ films, however, that actually applies to straight films too. China just likes to censor things. However, it does not actively pick on LGBTQ.
The problem is the people, as per the article
Being gay is not illegal in China, At home, Wen said she regularly gets judgmental stares on the street for wearing her hair short like a man’s, and was once asked by her barber: “What happened to your life?”
old school chinese folks are absolutely not LGBT friendly to say the least
You’ll get protection if discrimination passes a certain point, but it’s really more of a “hey you shouldn’t treat people that way” and not a “hey you shouldn’t treat gay people that way.”
A lot of older Chinese people just feel that the Western LGBT environment is rather odd: the rampant sexualization and PDA is at odds with the traditionally conservative culture. If the LGBT movement had adopted a more traditional protest scheme rather than the flair of flamboyance it has today, it would have seen much more support in China imo.
Also, a lot of Chinese TV has homoerotic undertones, idk what you’re watching.
American LGBT are attention whores. They wouldnt know how to live a quiet life.
