Abstract

The problem of homosexuality remains an important challenge in Chinese urban society. This paper aims to reviews the social conditions of homosexuality in Chinese urban areas in recent years by highlighting the background of homosexuality in Chinese society and the education system. Though previous articles have fully discovered the inequity of homosexuals and many of them have given out suggestions, the change of public and governmental attitude is little. The main findings of this paper are: 1) low social acceptance of homosexuality; 2) discriminations of homosexuality in the labour market; 3) homosexuality has little public identified city space; 4) bullying behaviours exist towards homosexuality; 5) stigmatization is an important issue to be considered. This paper mainly presents a comprehensive review from social and educational perspectives in the Chinese urban area and propounds possible solutions based on the primary causes.
