Abstract
" ... homophobic attitudes can overshadow the lives of lesbian and bisexual people in Hong Kong today ... a questionnaire survey ... sought to conduct initial research into the nature and extent of sexual orientation discrimination in Hongkong. The survey was carried out by the LBT human rights group Women Coalition of HKSAR(WC) and represents the second investigations conducted in HK under the same issue.
The central purpose of this report is to call attention to the extent of sexual orientation discrimination in Hongkong, and to increase the awareness of discrimination cases to Hongkong government, in response to the needs of legislation against discrimination as soon as possible."
