Since AfterElton deals with gay and bisexual men in entertainment and the media, this seems the place to discuss China's lack thereof of such material. China bans gay film festivals and other large gatherings of gay people. Hong Kong is in the Special Administrative Region (SAR) so it is the exception to the rule since it is governed differently. But Hong Kong only has 8 million residents, while the rest of China has 1,300,000,000 residents (1.3 billion). There are 130 million gay people in China living with no right to gather as they see fit or to see representations of themselves through free and independent media. In terms of sheer numbers of people, that is like having 43% of the USA population (which is 130 million out of 300 million total) deprived of their First Amendment rights to freedom of speech, freedom of conscience, freedom of religion, freedom of expression. So when you see the Olympics out of Beijing, remember China and the Olympic committee are not upholding human rights by holding it in that choice of location.
