Prejudice? Oh no! hmmm...what's that?

I was talking to a chinese "friend" and because I was curious, I wanted to know more on the chinese views on homosexuality and LGBT in general.

I'm going to be brief here because I don't want to get mad.

So basically:

- Gay people have a dicease in their hearts/brain
- Gay people are gay because they feel like being gay.
- Gay people, despite being able to choose the opposite gender, have the need to go homo.
- Gay people can be cured by going to some kind of psychologist.
- Gay people are not normal. They somehow because they are gay are different in all the rest too.
- He doesn't like gay people, he doesn't know any (or so he thought lol) but if it is gay, he doesn't like them. He doesn't even need to know anything else. It's gay? Don't like.
- According to his facial expressions and way of speaking, gay people should be exterminated from this planet.
- He was very annoyed with gay people, almost as if they had some kind of influence in is tad life. I know he comes from a true "society" where everyone is connected. But if one does not admit and ackownleged who they are, even on a private level, they can't be happy. He didn't even know the chinese word for "coming out of the closet", chugui 出柜.
 
It was very funny to talk with such an ignorant and limited person. I don't know how chinese people from big cities are, but I'm hoping they are now like him. I'm expecting some higher levels of education, but at the same time, I expect them to be like this guy, just in case so that I don't get sad if I somehow come to find out they are like him
And in a post I made some days ago, we can see that this is the same for japan. Where they are so ignorant thanks to their government that they don't even acknowledge the existence of other sexuality. It must be so sad to be a "different" (lol) person in Japan and China...
Countries that respect not individual freedom of choice, or respect, but then you get ostracized. lol! I pity them...this is 3rd world for me.

It's so weird to see people here kind of perplexed when they "feel" (literally, with their bodies) something different, they start making weird body movements that I can't even understand.

I might be a little to harsh with my words here, but I think it is not FAIR, and people have no right to speak about "different" people the way they do. And the worst, sharing their views with the rest of the people from the "group". That's a violation of a person's privacy. Having people talking on their back...
I personally love Chinese and japanese people when they are nice to me. I'm always nice and respect people when they respect me.

In case of Japan, its just national culture for them not to mix with the different, nor to show any interest in what is not japanese (from what I've heard, and from what I'm seeing in most people) hence my difficulties here,but chinese people are curious and warm.

It's kind of funny, and changing the subject a bit, I feel so much more comfortable when sending emails to the people I work with, than to be around with the people I see a few days a week at school. I feel like the people from work like me and trust me, and because I feel that, I like them and trust them back. With people from school, they never showed any interest in knowing me, they don't trust me, they don't let me trust them, so I'm always rushing to come back home. School makes me tired and extremely uncomfortable. As apposed, in Portugal I would stay in school until 12PM (library closing time) with my friends(AKA people I trust) and being home was boring.
Here, being home feels safer and warmer.

Truth is
