Gay rights in taiwan 12-02

This article suggests that gays and lesbians in Taiwan are generally afraid to “come out” to their family. The article goes on to suggest that most families operate under a “don’t-ask, don’t-tell” policy. In other words, most families just don’t want to know if they have a gay son, daughter, brother, sister, and so on. In your opinion, do you think this is correct? This article is from 2004. Do you think the situation is any different now?
Well, I don’t think Taiwan is getting any better with the ways of thinking gay, especially parents and grandparents. I really don’t know if it’s right or wrong to agree with gays or lesbians, but I really can’t imagine what if my brother is gay. I know everyone has the right to choose who they want to love or what kind of people they want to love but gays and lesbians are just not nature, they can’t make birth to a child, if they do adopt a child what should the child call there parents? Who should be the mom and who should be the dad? Well I don’t really agree with gays getting married, it’s too strange. I don’t really think that my parents would agree with it too and I really don’t think they would tell anyone that if their children are gays or lesbians. I remember that when I was in high school I went to a girls school in Taipei, I was not allowed to have a boyfriend then but I really wanted to have a boyfriend, but I was not allowed, but I have this girl friend that looks really like a boy and of cause she is a lesbians, and my parents was so worried that I will hang out that girl and be her girlfriend, after a few month later my parents told me that I should get a boyfriend. By this, I and really sure that my family won’t allowed gay or lesbians.
