Inspired by the '70s hit Hong Kong girl band duo Chopsticks Sisters, Perry Chiu Experimental Theatre presents Chopsticks, the first lesbian-themed musical in Hong Kong. Fridae's reporter Tony Ed Lo talks to the show's producer, director and one of its leads, Perry Chiu about how the sisters' relationship evolves from friendship to love via music.
The Hong Kong Lesbian and Gay Film Festival kicks off today with more than 30 full-length and short films to be screened over two weeks, and will feature more Asian content than in previous years.
Dustin Lance Black to GQ: “Leaning on lies, myths and stereotypes about gay people is hateful, harmful and outdated. It’s not the 1950s anymore GQ, it’s 2011 and it’s time to grow up.”
Hans Tao-Ming Huang's new book seeks to chronicle five decades of queer related cultural history and politics of sexuality in Taiwan by examining literary works including Pai Hsien-yung's Crystal Boys, one of Taiwan's first recognised gay novels; Taiwanese newspaper observations of same-sex issues; the influence the feminist movement has in Taiwan; among others.
In this new collection, Peter A. Jackson brings together experts including veteran Singapore gay activist Alex Au, and prominent academics Professor Douglas Sanders, Megan Sinnot and Dr Sam Winter, to piece together a picture of how Thailand’s politics, economics, art, society and views of sex affect the LGBT people who actually live there as opposed to just pass through.
So the saying goes: It does not pay to have a secret private life, honesty is a far better option, and particularly so in the world of high finance and politics as David Clive Price's characters who work in financial powerhouses in Hong Kong find out.
The Man Singapore Theatre Festival is being held once again from 3 to 21 August, helmed by the notoriously queer-friendly company W!ld Rice. We look at the lineup and interview young playwright Joel Tan, author of the gay-themed play Family Outing.
“You have to love someone to suck someone,” says Scud (real name Danny Cheng Wan-Cheung), director of Love Actually... Sucks! Scud shares his views on love, his film, and his struggles with censors in Hong Kong and Taiwan. Meanwhile, a release date has not been set as the Hong Kong censor has demanded 11 cuts, and Taiwan authorities five.
Author and Professor of Anthropology Evelyn Blackwood offers a compelling view how lesbian butch-femme couples in the city of Padang, West Sumatra negotiate their transgressive identities and desires, and how their experiences speak to the struggles of sexual minorities elsewhere in Falling Into The Lesbi World, the fifth volume in the Queer Asia Series.

I'm a relationship oriented guy. Versatile, HIV-, no drugs, no drama. Love to laugh. Live right on a lake and enjoy the water. Love to explore, and the DC area has lots of interesting things to see and do. Looking for a decent looking guy, 24 - 39, whose mind is working, has a decent sense of humor and some adventure in him. Someone who says what he means and means what he says.
