  • You have an end point that’s pretty close, and that’s great! If you know that your load will lighten up after, keep at it.

    Rely on your partner and friends for connection and help you through it. Be frank about your feelings. The people who turn to alcohol and adultery because of stress are the people that have been unfortunately told to keep it in and shoulder everything on their own, or unfortunately don’t have support. Find support and healthy outlets rather than turning to destructive substances or actions that are hard to take back.

    Keep track of what’s important to you in the long run in the end.

    You can do it!












  • To add on, yes there is homophobia, but not the religious “they’re going to hell” type. Purely from a reproductive/family lineage stand point. People don’t care as much societally, unless it’s their own children, because that’ll end their own family lineage (but science babies is possible). Especially if it’s their only offspring from the result of the one child policy, the parents can be quite upset. If they had like 5 kids, and 1 is homosexual, most modern Chinese people would not care. But laws wise it’s still very don’t ask don’t tell, so there’s not many rights, but laws are generally not actively vicious.

    Internally, China has been producing a lot of queer media. TV shows, comics, novels, animations etc. so far they mainly just need to not be “pornographic”

    The crackdown on the media is bundled with restrictions on overt sexual content (gay or straight), video games, foreign media depicting “feminine” men (ie. Korean media), and whatever else they think distracts from baby making.

    But queer media is judged a bit more harshly for sure.
