A survey reveals that 53% of citizens in China believe LGBTQ+ people deserve societal acceptance, with similar support for same-sex marriage. Additionally, 46% are willing to attend a same-sex wedding, while 48% see gay couples as capable parents. Knowledge of LGBTQ+ individuals increases support, and 62% advocate for equitable workplace treatment, 68% call for better protections for queer students. The findings highlight a gap between public sentiment and existing Chinese legal standards regarding LGBTQ+ rights.
"Little is known about the general Chinese public's view of LGBTQ+ people and issues, but this study shows evidence of high approval of LGBTQ+ rights and protections among an influential segment of the population."
"Sixty-two per cent of those surveyed said LGBTQ+ people should be treated fairly at work, and 68 per cent felt the government should improve protections for queer students."
