Abstract

Under the dual force of the resurgence of international conservatism and the human rights movement, democrats in China are increasingly calling for homosexual marriage, but the country still rejects the development of gay marriage rights on the grounds of non-traditional. This paper explores the reasons why traditional Confucianism, the patriarchy system and the socio-political system have failed to legalize homosexual marriage in China from the perspective of gender, in addtion, it further explores the plight of the Chinese gay community: the traditional Confucianism-led thinking on homosexual marriage obstacles are one-sided, the conspiracy between the patriarchy’s aversion to same-sex behavior and the socialist ideology for opposing capitalist democracy are the root cause. This paper aims to explain the current delicate situation of homosexuality in China and the underlying reasons for its situation.
