The gay scene in Hong Kong has undergone quite a revolution over a few short years. In July 1991 the enactment of the Crimes (Amendment) Ordinance removed criminal penalties for homosexual acts between consenting adults over the age of 18, and since then gay groups have been lobbying for legislation to address the issue of discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation. Despite these changes, however, Hong Kong Chinese society remains fairly conservative, and it can still be risky for gays and lesbians to come out to family members or their employers.
