ave not yet been paid attention to, nor forbidden, on account to the obscure comportment of government—silence is what they manage to retain, on the whole. Though without harsh strike and persecution in history, Mr.Xu pointed out, queers in China could hardly gain the recognition of public opinion, lying in the way of their admitting their homo***ual identities dauntlessly. “Comrades”, an appellation of homoerotism groups in China, could be the attestation illuminating their veracious social status—they are struggling in their way opposite to ethic and morality ideology remained in the bondage of 5000 years’ feudalist system, seeking for the light of dawn, the sign that they could ultimately have themselves liberated. C. Ideas and Attitudes Up until present moment in China, attitudes towards homo***uality may be divided into three aspects: recognition, opposition and neutrality, though most would have their viewpoints of opposition. Homoerotism, in dissenters’ eyes, goes against the basic regulation of human evolution and the natural function; it is an exhibition of retrogress, not mention that this activity plays an active role in stimulating the spreading of AIDS. Some add that homo***uality proves the source of criminal commitments, combats with morality system of the society at the same time, with an eye to its inactive influence to connection between family and marriage. Nevertheless, those are not among the standpoints of the proponents whose tolerance supports their looking on this kind of marginal culture with a dissimilar aspect. They consider that the only distinctness between homo***uality and hetero***uality rests with the participants’ choice of ***ual partners, which only depends on one’s liberty. Since the two both satisfy the flowing of emotional affection and the *** appealing, it is of no excuse to dogmatically estimate that hetero***uality is morally equitable while homo***uality not.

Attitudes have changed radically in the past hundred and fifty years, swinging from casual acceptance to antagonism to guarded acceptance again. The Chinese Psychiatrists’ Association removed homo***uality from the list of mental illnesses in April 2001. However, as scriptwriter and teacher Cui Zi’en, one of the few openly gay intellectuals in today's China points out, in his country, it is still seen as a psychological disorder. "In the West, it’s frowned on to criticize homo***uals and even more to make them feel different," says Cui Zi’en, contrasting it with Chinese society which, "is changing, but there’ll always be people who’ll feel disgust." The dispute, to a certainty, would keep moving on as it will inevitably take an intricate long process for any scientific frame of reference to gain recognition from the masses. In this process lives vehement debate, together with the shifting course between agreement and disagreement, which, are prerequisite instead of accidental. As research drawing on homoerotism goes a way further, it would be rational that the public perception gets more sensible and scientific, a beautiful symbol of the consummating of the morality system of our society. Thus, it is just a matter of time for homo***uality to find its reasonable station in the world finally. III. Influence of Weste
