Taiwan is set to become the first area of Asia to legalise same-sex marriage. One of three bills is already being reviewed by lawmakers, so same-sex couples might be able to marry within a matter of months. This is a groundbreaking feat for LGBT couples, who don’t currently have legal, medical and educational autonomy over their partner’s children and assets if something happens to them.
(19)Around 80% of Taiwan’s young people and 55% of the entire people support same-sex marriage and Taiwan’s first female head, President Tsai Ing-wen, has been pressing for legalisation. (20)The liberal attitude is thought to be a result of the area’s multi-party democracy which allows an array of views to be heard along with the establishment of feminism and the fight for gender and LGBT equality during and since the 1990s. Similarly, most of the Taiwanese people follow Buddhism and traditional Chinese religions that don’t take a strict stance on sexual orientation. Jens Damm, associate professor at a top Taiwan university explains that the “elite became in favour of a kind of gender equality”, furthering the rights of LGBT folk too.
While the same-sex marriage bill has had tremendous backing, it hasn’t been a smooth ride to marriage equality. (21)Taiwan’s Nationalist Party has attempted to reject same-sex marriage bills repeatedly—in 2013 around 400,000 people signed a petition against same-sex marriage.
Questions 19 to 21 are based on the passage you have just heard.
