Japan's powerful lower house of parliament passes bill promoting understanding of LGBTQ+ issues
Fox News
Japan's lower house of parliament passed a bill promoting the understanding of LGBTQ+ issues. Citizens believe Fumio Kishida's conservative party favored opposition to sexual equality.
Japan is the only member of the Group of Seven leading industrialized nations which does not have LGTBQ+ legal protections. Support for same-sex marriage and other rights has grown among the Japanese public, but opposition remains strong within the governing Liberal Democratic Party, known for conservative values and a reluctance to promote gender equality and sexual diversity.
LGBTQ+ activists have increased their efforts to achieve an anti-discrimination law since a former Kishida aide said in February that he wouldn’t want to live next to LGBTQ+ people and that citizens would flee Japan if same-sex marriage were allowed.
