Same-Sex Marriage in the Republic of China (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. In 2003, the executive branch of the Republic of China government (Executive Yuan) proposed legislation granting marriages to same-sex couples under the Human Rights Basic Law; however, it faced opposition among cabinet members and legislators, and has been stalled since and thus not voted on. Currently, Taiwan does not have any recognition of same-sex unions. A poll of 6,439 Taiwanese adults released in April 2006 by the National Union of Taiwan Women's Association/Constitutional Reform Alliance concluded that 75% believe homosexual relations are acceptable, while 25% thought they were unacceptable.
