Homosexuality has long been considered taboo. Although the wind of broken sleeves has been prevalent since ancient times. It is a family tradition for the emperor of the Western Han Dynasty to play with men and engage in homosexuality. The first emperor, Gaozu Liu Bang, was a man in this way. His comrade lover, according to the Records of the Grand Historian, was called Jiru. In the Song Dynasty, there were even brothels dominated by men. Longyang Jun is the first recorded homosexual in Chinese history, and Longyang's addiction has become synonymous with homosexuality. In ancient times, male sex was called "Longyang", which also has its origins. Lord Longyang was the lucky man of King Wei during the Warring States Period. He was as tactful and charming as a beautiful woman. In addition to this, same-sex relationships were common in ancient Greece.
However, it has only been nearly 50 years since homosexuality was legalized! And, this is only in no more than 20 countries. For a long time, gay people have been discriminated against by the outside world! How unfair this is! They are also ordinary people, but they have different preferences from others, so why are they excluded from society. So he stood up. Fight for social recognition and respect for all gay people. Fortunately, he succeeded!
To be honest, I don't think this movie is so good, maybe it's its special meaning. The characteristic of the documentary school is realism, which results in the inanimateness of the story. However, it is still worth a look for gays. I just don't know if the comrades who haven't come out will have the courage to tell their parents after reading it?
Well, anyway, long live understanding! ! !
