Social decolonization
By: 90sRetroFan Date: November 19, 2020, 10:24 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
OLD CONTENT
Another field of decolonization we need to be aware of concerns
modes of present-day social interaction and interpersonal
conduct, which is heavily based on Western social norms as a
consequence of the colonial era. Please post whatever you notice
around you in daily life which falls under this category.
As a romantic, one thing that I have always intuitively despised
is people dating again after widowhood. It is betrayal of the
deceased spouse. I first noticed this phenomenon during
childhood when I watched dating game shows on TV featuring
widowed old people, which seemed like a celebration of a
phenomenon which I had previously (naively) presumed should at
the very least be considered shameful. But then I started doing
research and realized that Western marriage vows tacitly endorse
this behaviour by implying that the vow ends with the death of
either spouse:

ligions
[quote]Basic Protestant Vows
"I, ___, take thee, ___, to be my wedded husband/wife, to have
and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for
richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to
cherish, till death do us part, according to God's holy
ordinance; and thereto I pledge thee my faith [or] pledge myself
to you."
Episcopal
"______, wilt thou have this woman/man to be thy wedded
wife/husband to live together after God's ordinance in the Holy
Estate of matrimony? Wilt thou love her/him? Comfort her/him,
honor and keep her/him, in sickness and in health, and forsaking
all others keep thee only unto her/him as long as you both shall
live?"
"In the name of God, I, ______, take you, ______, to be my
wife/husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for
better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and
health, to love and to cherish, until we are parted by death.
This is my solemn vow."
Methodist
"Will you have this woman/man to be your wife/husband, to live
together in holy marriage? Will you love her/him, comfort
her/him, honor, and keep her/him in sickness and in health, and
forsaking all others, be faithful to her/him as long as you both
shall live?"
"In the name of God, I, ______, take you, ______, to be my
wife/husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for
better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in
health, to love and to cherish, until we are parted by death.
This is my solemn vow."
Presbyterian
"______, wilt thou have this woman/man to be thy wife/husband,
and wilt thou pledge thy faith to him/her, in all love and
honor, in all duty and service, in all faith and tenderness, to
live with her/him, and cherish her/him, according to the
ordinance of God, in the holy bond of marriage?"
"I, ______, take you, ______, to be my wedded wife/husband, and
I do promise and covenant, before God and these witnesses, to be
your loving and faithful husband/wife, in plenty and want, in
joy and in sorrow, in sickness and in health, as long as we both
shall live."
Lutheran
"I take you, ______, to be my wife/husband from this day
forward, to join with you and share all that is to come, and I
promise to be faithful to you until death parts us."
...
Catholic Wedding Vows
"I, ___, take you, ___, for my lawful wife/husband, to have and
to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for
richer, for poorer, in sickness and health, until death do us
part."
...
Eastern Orthodox Wedding Vows
Many branches of the Orthodox church use silent vows during the
ceremony -- an introspective prayer in which the couple promises
to be loyal and loving to each other. In the Russian tradition,
however, vows are spoken out loud:
"I, ___, take you, ___, as my wedded wife/husband and I promise
you love, honor and respect; to be faithful to you, and not to
forsake you until death do us part. So help me God, one in the
Holy Trinity and all the Saints."[/quote]
Wtf? If love ends with physical death of the (supposed) beloved,
it was never love at all! Yet the above Western barbarism is
what gets recited millions of times per day, now even in secular
weddings in originally non-Western (but Westernized) countries,
taken for granted as the standard format. This is unacceptable.
I have also encountered numerous instances of fictional
portrayals of characters starting new "romances" (oxymoron)
after widowhood, cast in a positive light. (And in real life it
is even more degenerate, with Westerners openly talking like: "I
would definitely pursue [name] if my husband/wife died." even
while their spouses are still alive!)
In contrast, non-Western civilizations at least culturally
looked down on such behaviour (despite its inevitable occurrence
in practice due to the inferiority of the majority of all
historical populations), and instead venerate (at least in
fiction) the opposite behavious ie. continuing fidelity to the
deceased spouse. This is what we need to get back to.
WESTERN CIVILIZATION MUST DIE!

On that, I never understood how someone could have more than one
romantic companion in general. I know a sizable amount of people
who've had at least five "girlfriends"/"boyfriends" throughout
their lives, and I know that this isn't uncommon... Like how do
people split up all that lifeforce and feeling? At what point
does having a relationship with someone just become a mere
hobby?
Also: strip clubs need to be purified with fire. Another Western
tradition I know of is when a Groom goes to a stripclub the
night before getting married in a "bachelor party". This comedy
skit that I watched a few years back pretty much sums it up:

"I never understood how someone could have more than one
romantic companion in general."
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monogamy#Serial_monogamy
[quote]A pair of humans may remain sexually exclusive, or
monogamous, until the relationship has ended and then each may
go on to form a new exclusive pairing with a different partner.
This pattern of serial monogamy is common among people in
Western cultures.[90][91]
...
in order to monopolize periods of more than one female’s
reproductive life span without being considered polygamous and
thus breaking social norms of a monogamous society, males try to
remarry women younger than themselves. A study done in 1994
found a significant difference between ages of remarried men and
women because the men have a longer reproductive
window.[92][93][/quote]
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keturah
[quote]Keturah (Hebrew:
קְטוּרָה, Ktura,
possibly meaning "incense"[1]) was a concubine[2] and wife[3] of
the Biblical patriarch Abraham. According to the Book of
Genesis, Abraham married Keturah after the death of his first
wife, Sarah. Abraham and Keturah had six sons.[3][/quote]
I remember watching Titanic in which we are sold a supposed
story of true love, and yet we are told that after Jack died
Rose went and married some other guy, which totally cheapened
the main arc in my mind. (From a more detached perspective it's
still a good movie, though, in the sense that it accurately
reflects colonial-era Westerners' low standards of romance and
their own obliviousness to this. The only question is whether or
not this was intentional. (Considering that Cameron himself
married five times, probably not.))
What annoys me is when rightists claim that romantic love is
exclusive(!!!) to Western civilization.....
"how do people split up all that lifeforce and feeling?"
I have always maintained that anyone who reproduces with their
supposed romantic partner does not truly love the partner, as
attention would have to be thereafter diverted to the children.
(This is one example of how romanticism complements Gnosticism.)
"Another Western tradition I know of is when a Groom goes to a
stripclub the night before getting married in a "bachelor
party"."
Yes, but at least this one isn't glorified in art (at least as
far as I have encountered). The comedy skit that you posted
portrays it as is something to laugh at, which is where it
should remain.
"strip clubs need to be purified with fire."
There is a difference between despising something and believing
it should be made illegal. The latter, being violent, requires a
much higher standard of justification, specifically that it is
retaliation to an initiated violence. Strip clubs do not
initiate violence so long as everything that goes on there is
voluntary. To make illegal what is not violent is
totalitarianism, a charge which we as autocrats must take
especial care to avoid.
I have no problem with strip clubs existing, as they can
function as a quality filter by observing who its customers are.
For example, anyone with dignity would surely cancel a marriage
if the potential spouse was willing to go to a strip club the
night before. But if strip clubs did not exist, the same person
would be denied the information that their potential spouse was
someone who would do this (because the option to do so would be
unavailable), and thus end up erroneously marrying someone who
would have been rejected if only more information had been
available.

"The positive views on polygamy is not restricted to Western
civilisation, nor is re-marriage after death restricted to
Christianity. In Islam, for instance, polygamy is condoned"
Are you here solely to waste my time? Polygamy, like it or not,
is at least candid. Serial monogamy, in contrast, is an
irreverent mockery of what monogamy is supposed to be. Multiple
simultaneous spouses of the same person at least get to know for
sure that their spouse does not love (any of) them exclusively,
and hence respond accordingly based on accurate information
(same as the person whose spouse goes to a strip club bachelor
party). There is no deception going on. On the other hand, the
spouse of a serial monogamist is successfully fooled until death
into believing their spouse loves them exclusively, and hence
respond lifelong based on an incomplete impression. Which is
worse?
Moreover, voluntary monogamy in a society where polygamy is
legal is of greater romantic significance than monogamy in a
society where polygamy is illegal, as the monogamous couple in
the former case can confirm that their spouse is not merely
tolerating monogamy for the sake of avoiding legal
repercussions. For this reason, a society in which polygamy is
legal is actually more romance-friendly than a society in which
polygamy is illegal. (So here too we see how the Western
civilization has been diluting romance around the world by
promoting the outlawing of polygamy!)
---
I've never dated, or been in a relationship. I've always been
repulsed by both notions. I would make an exception for someone
very special, and if that person died before me I'd probably
never do either again.
When I hear most westerners talk about relationships it
literally makes me physically nauseous!

Parents with low self-esteem condition their offspring to be
social Westerners:
HTML https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WD_lNadkm4
Watching the children - victims of their colonized parents and
the neocon teachers - in their colonial-era Western outfits
affecting colonial-era Western mannerisms is just depressing.
Handshakes are notoriously unhygienic. Knives and forks are for
meat-heavy diets. And the walking style is a bad joke.
That teacher being interviewed is bullshitting, of course. Since
when did "abroad" mean exclusively the West? Why must
"adaptation" to "an international environment" be Eurocentric?
Where are the classes on Islamic etiquette, for example? And
even if such classes existed, would these same parents pay for
them? (We all know the answers.)
True Left employers/contractors/clients/etc. should wherever
possible deliberately reject prospective
employees/businesses/etc. who display Western etiquette in
favour of those who do not. WESTERN CIVILIZATION MUST DIE!

More dripping Eurocentrism:
HTML https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ow7KcAYtmSw
All civilizations around the world have their own locally
developed domestic help style dating back to ancient times. Yet
formerly colonized peoples overwhelmingly want to perpetuate the
Western style even in their own countries. This is becoming so
predictable.....
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butler#The_modern_butler
[quote]MacPherson emphasises that the number of wealthy people
in China has increased particularly, creating in that country a
high demand for professional butlers who have been trained in
the European butlering tradition.[15] There is also increasing
demand for such butlers in other Asian countries, India, and the
petroleum-rich Middle East.[16][17][/quote]
WTF is wrong with them all?!?!

[quote]TOKYO (AP) — Japan is abuzz ahead of a ceremony Tuesday
marking Emperor Naruhito's ascension to the Chrysanthemum
Throne.
...
Tuesday's ceremony allows Naruhito to proclaim himself Japan's
126th emperor in a ritual dating back to the 7th century.
Historians say the modern enthronement rituals are largely meant
to allow the government to showcase the monarchy to win public
support and to preserve the country's cultural heritage.
Western-style banquets and a procession have been added to "to
bolster national prestige and influence. The Imperial family's
own events used to be more modest," said historian and monarchy
expert Eiichi Miyashiro, who is also a journalist.[/quote]

A small win:

ong-time-hobby
[quote]The Duchess of Sussex is said to have banned her husband
from hunting - a sport he and several members of the royal
family enjoy.
Speaking with the UK's Radio Times, friend of the Sussexes Dr
Jane Goodall revealed Meghan holds considerable influence over
Harry.
When the publication indicated to the Dr that Harry and his
brother Prince William are champions of the natural world, she
interjected: "Yes except they hunt and shoot."[/quote]
Yes, that is how Westerners do it - hunt everything except
"endangered species", while forcing "endangered species" to
reproduce until they become populous enough for Westerners to
start hunting them again without fear of species extinction:
HTML https://trueleft.createaforum.com/true-left-vs-right/western-civilization-sustainable-evil/
[quote]However, his hunting days may already have come to an
end, as he's known to have already given up going on one hunt
for the sake of his marriage.
It has been claimed that Prince Harry did not participate in the
traditional Boxing Day royal family hunt two years ago as he did
not want to “upset” Meghan Markle.
The family usually shoot pheasants, partridges, and sometimes
ducks on their 8000-hectare estate in Norfolk.
A source told The Sun at the time: “Harry loves [hunting] and
has always been out there on Boxing Day.
“But if it means breaking with long-standing royal traditions to
avoid upsetting [Meghan], so be it.
“It’s fair to say that there are some pretty stunned faces
around here.” They added.[/quote]
---
Is Meghan a non-Westerner? I have seen a great degree of racist
vitriol directed toward her from rightists...
---
She seems to have been brought up in Counterculture thinking to
some degree, but more information is required to say for sure.
---
Update:
www.thesun.co.uk/news/11557382/prince-harry-flogs-rifles-please-
meghan/
[quote]PRINCE Harry has flogged his handmade hunting rifles
after giving up bloodsports to please wife Meghan.
A fellow hunter bought the pair of prized Purdey firearms,
thought to be worth at least £50,000, in a private deal.
Harry learnt to shoot as a child and once killed a one-ton
buffalo.
...
Harry shot dead the water buffalo in Argentina in 2004 during
his gap year — and he and William hunted wild boar in Spain in
2014.
And in 2017, while engaged to Meghan, Harry and his friends
killed 15 wild boar in Germany.[/quote]
Let's think for a moment: if you are sincerely against hunting,
would you sell hunting equipment to other hunters so that they
can use it to hunt? (Surely it would be more appropriate to
destroy it, preferably in public?)
This proves that Harry was not just a prisoner of Windsor
upbringing. He is genetic trash merely being pressured to behave
contrary to his blood memory.

So Kim has reappeared in public after weeks of uncertainty. But
this brings me to another point. He reappeared to do a
ribbon-cutting ceremony:
[img]
HTML https://images.wsj.net/im-182903?width=1280&size=1.33333333[/img]
Here is the history of ribbon-cutting:
tedium.co/2018/05/01/ribbon-cuttings-ceremonial-scissors-history
/
[quote]The earliest examples of ribbon-cutting ceremonies I can
find are in relation to boat or dock christenings, around the
late 19th century in the United Kingdom. These christening
ceremonies, which generally involved the smashing of wine
bottles against the ship and at times involved ribbon, but not
necessarily the cutting of said ribbon, as highlighted in a
passage from Nathaniel Hawthorne’s English Notebooks, in which
the bottle was simply thrown. Christening ceremonies go back far
longer than ribbon-cutting ceremonies, but the wine bottle
smashing only became a thing about a century before.
One particularly notable early incident involving the cutting of
a ribbon, involving Alexandra of Denmark, then the Princess of
Wales, involved the opening of Alexandra Dock in
Liverpool.[/quote]
In short, Western. So I have this to give to Kim to mark his
official return to public life:

Japan: The Age Of Social Withdrawal
[quote]As the coronavirus pandemic plunged the world into
lockdown, for many in Japan the social isolation that was
imposed was nothing out of the ordinary. Why have so many in
Japan become socially withdrawn - even before the
pandemic?[/quote]
[quote]The Japanese government estimates that around one million
Japanese people live in social isolation. In Tokyo, 54-year old
Kenji lives a reclusive life because he feels out of place in
Japanese society: 'It's a sense or feeling that you shouldn't be
here.' Meanwhile, in Ibaraki prefecture, another reclusive man
searches for a job - but 14 years of withdrawal makes this a
challenge. 'Networks, connections and experience... These are
things that matter in Japan'. Children, too, are withdrawing,
overwhelmed by a strict schooling system - which has led to NGOs
setting up alternative educational institutions. 'Telling them
to go back to work or go back to school straight away is not the
way,' explains a leader of one education centre.[/quote]

[quote]Along with australia, the US, Canada and western Europe.
Generally Japan is considered western in this regard. ... Japan
has it's own rich history, like many countries, so despite
western influence, Japan is still Japanese. Japan has always
adapted the outside world to itself retaining it's
identity.[/quote]

[quote]Japan, which had isolated itself from international
politics in the Tokugawa period (1600-1868), enters an
international system of the late 1800s where [s]imperialism[/s]
colonialism dominates.[/quote]
[quote]Reform-minded samurai, reflecting the enormous changes
that have taken place in the preceding Tokugawa period, effect
political change. They launch the reform movement under the
guise of restoring the emperor to power, thereby eliminating the
power of the shogun, or military ruler, of the Tokugawa period.
The emperor's reign name is Meiji; hence the title, "Meiji
Restoration" of 1868.
The Japanese carry out this modernization by very deliberate
study, borrowing, and adaptation of Western political, military,
technological, economic, and social forms — repeating a pattern
of deliberate borrowing and adaptation seen previously in the
classical period when Japan studied Chinese civilization
(particularly in the 7th century to 8th century).[/quote]

[quote]Last week, Buckingham Palace released its statement about
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's royal exit becoming
permanent—and what that meant for their remaining titles and
patronages. Specifically, Harry is being stripped of his
honorary military titles and both the Duke and Duchess of Sussex
are being removed from their official royal patronages.
...
In response, Harry and Meghan released a brief (and
widely-interpreted as tense) statement of their own. "As
evidenced by their work over the past year, The Duke and Duchess
of Sussex remain committed to their duty and service to the U.K.
and around the world, and have offered their continued support
to the organizations they have represented regardless of
official role. We can all live a life of service. Service is
universal," a spokesperson for the couple said.
Harry and Meghan's statement has reportedly upset some in royal
circles—including Harry's brother, Prince William. According to
a Sunday Times report, William is "really sad and genuinely
shocked" by the statement, which another source close to the
royal family described as "petulant and insulting to the Queen."
Explaining the outrage the Sussexes' statement has stirred up
within royal circles, another source close to the situation
said, "You don’t answer the Queen back—it’s just not done."
According to Page Six, William isn't alone and other members of
the royal family are also "stunned" not just by the fact that
Harry and Meghan publicly replied to the Palace's statement, but
by the tone of the statement their spokesperson shared.[/quote]
Answering back to Elizabeth is just the beginning. One day
Elizabeth or her heirs will have to answer for all the violence
ever committed by the British Empire on their colonial victims.

Time to revisit an issue mentioned earlier. Our enemies are
claiming monogamy as Western. No, outlawing polygamy (thereby
driving it underground, thus adding deception into the issue) is
Western:
HTML https://www.eurocanadian.ca/2021/02/whites-invented-family-10.html
[quote]Whites invented monogamy and therefore they must be
credited with inventing the family[/quote]
Monogamous couples existed in all civilizations. The difference
is that non-Western civilizations never outlawed polygamy,
because they at least understood that the state should stay out
of people's private lives.
Polygamy involving consent of all parties involved involves no
violence. Prohibiting non-violent behaviour is initiated
violence. Therefore prohibiting polygamy is initiated violence.
Therefore Western civilization initiates more violence (no
surprises!) than non-Western civilizations on this issue also.
In societies where polygamy is legal, someone who wants a
monogamous marriage can require a potential spouse to sign a
legally binding contract stipulating that they are to be each
other's only spouse. Such contracts do not affect anyone else,
so those who prefer a polygamous marriage can also have the
arrangement they prefer. By crudely outlawing polygamy wholesale
as Western civilization does), however, people who prefer
polygamy are oppressed.
Again I must repeat that I personally look down on polygamists,
but firstly looking down on someone is no reason to initiate
violence against them, and secondly I would rather polygamists
be out in the open so that I know whom to look down on. Under
Western civilization, actual polygamists hide their extramarital
affairs and feign monogamy in public, thus making it harder to
spot (and revere) the genuine monogamists. Thus Western
civilization screws up everything. As usual.
Duchesne even inadvertently admits that monogamy is oppressive:
[quote]young females will have a larger pool of males to choose
husbands from than would be available in a society where
monogamy was the law.[/quote]
In other words, outlawing monogamy reduces female choice. (This
by itself is already a concession to my long-held assertion that
Western civilization is more sexist than non-Western
civilizations.)
And Duchesne openly admits that Western civilization is
oppressive:
[quote]All other peoples on the earth remained attached to their
psychological predisposition for polygamy until the monogamous
West awoke them from their biological slumber with their
incredible economic success and military expansion, forcing them
to adopt monogamous institutions.[/quote]
No, all other peoples remained attached to their unrestricted
ability to choose either monogamy or polygamy according to their
own individual preferences until the violently
polygamy-outlawing West violently colonized them.
Duchesne even lets us know what he really cares about:
[quote]In chapter 8 he further observed "that monogamous
marriage norms...create a range of social and psychological
effects that give the societies that possess them a big edge in
competition against other groups" (263).[/quote]
Yes, outlawing polygamy is a highly effective tribal strategy.
Yes, by outlawing polygamy, Western civilization gave the
"white" tribe the edge required to colonize around the world.
This is what makes Western civilization uniquely inferior.
[quote]While Greek monogamy limited each male citizen to a
single wife, it was considered acceptable to import sex slaves,
and wealthy men did. This approach is interesting because it
addresses one of the fundamental social dilemmas posed by
polygynous marriage systems, by keeping local women available to
poor men for marriage (avoiding the problems created by poor
unmarried males) while at the same time allowing rich men broad
access to "imported" women.[/quote]
This also happened during the colonial era. To rephrase, Western
civilization oppresses:
1) "white" women by forcing them to marry poor "white" men;
2) "non-white" women by forcing them to be sex slaves for rich
"white" men so that the rich "white" men would leave more
"white" women for the poor "white" men;
3) "non-white" men by turning them into the new class of poor
unmarried males (taking the place of the poor "white" men).
Western civilization is basically extremely violent
redistribution of sexual resources to the ultimate advantage of
poor "white" men. (Guess which group is the predominant rightist
demographic!)
[quote]Solon’s laws provided for "state-subsidized brothels
staffed with cheap and therefore readily available female
prostitutes" in order to alleviate the polygynous inclination of
men. This fact does not negate the monogamous character of
ancient Greece since children born outside a monogamous marriage
were not recognized as biological members of the household and
were excluded from any inheritance. Prostitution and concubinage
was "a substitute for polygyny by the wealthy".[/quote]
Let's also consider: if you were someone's wife, would you
prefer your husband to visit prostitutes (who also have sex with
many other men) or have other wives whom you can at least try to
ensure do not have sex with other men? On STD considerations
alone, the answer is obvious.
Nevertheless, despite his very own words exposing utter Western
inferiority at every turn, Duchesne has the hubris to sum up:
[quote]Europeans were the only people in history to rise above
the evolved animalistic impulses for polygamy to which the other
races of the world remained entrapped until they were taught
otherwise by white men.[/quote]

"Following discussions with ITV, Piers Morgan has decided now is
the time to leave Good Morning Britain," ITV said on Tuesday.
"ITV has accepted this decision and has nothing further to add."
CNN understands that Meghan's complaint to ITV concerned the
impact Morgan's comments could have on others and how it could
degrade the seriousness of mental health issues. The complaint
did not relate to the personal nature of Morgan's
attacks.[/quote]

That settles it for me, I feel Meghan has more noble character
than everyone else combined in this post. Too bad she is not a
Queen of a country somewhere!!! Meghan would probably be one of
the greats.
I also purposely put Chris Cuomo's take under the above
sentence....
Cuomo: Why Meghan's interview struck a nerve with the right
[quote]CNN's Chris Cuomo discusses with Van Jones and TheGrio's
Natasha Alford why Oprah Winfrey's interview with Duchess of
Sussex Meghan has struck a nerve with many
conservatives.[/quote]

The only thing I agree with the host John with in the first
segment is his being "fascinated by what other people are
fascinated by" comment. I can relate to this, I am also
fascinated by what others are fascinated by.

Homophobia in socially colonized "New China":

[quote]A recent crackdown on LGBT accounts on Tencent's popular
WeChat platform has divided Chinese social media.
Dozens of such accounts, mostly run by university students, had
been deleted on Tuesday night - sparking fears of a tightening
control over gay content.[/quote]
Contrast with the true (pre-colonial) China:
HTML https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGBT_rights_in_China
[quote]The earliest records of homosexuality and same-sex
relations in China date from the Shang dynasty era (c. 16th to
11th century BCE). The term luan feng was used to describe
homosexuality. No records of lesbian relations exist, however.
In this time, homosexuality was largely viewed with indifference
and usually treated with openness.[9]
...
Homosexuality and homoeroticism were common and accepted during
the Han dynasty (202 BCE - 220 CE).
...
Writings from the Liu Song dynasty era (420–479 CE) claim that
homosexuality was as common as heterosexuality. It is said that
men engaged so often in homosexual activity, that unmarried
women became jealous.[3]
...
Chinese homosexuals did not experience persecution which would
compare to that experienced by homosexuals in Christian Europe
during the Middle Ages, and in some areas, particularly among
the merchant classes, same-sex love was particularly
appreciated. There was a stereotype in the late Ming dynasty
that the province of Fujian was the only place where
homosexuality was prominent,[14] but Xie Zhaozhe (1567–1624)
wrote that "from Jiangnan and Zhejiang to Beijing and Shanxi,
there is none that does not know of this fondness."[14] European
Jesuit missionaries such as Matteo Ricci took note of what they
deemed "unnatural perversions", distressed over its often open
and public nature.[15][/quote]
So how did China become homophobic? The last sentence in the
above passage offers a clue. Answer:
[quote]Heteronormativity and intolerance of gays and lesbians
became more mainstream through the Westernization efforts of the
early Republic of China.[5][/quote]
