First in Asia

Taiwan becw8)jfenP5rWS$Annl6(6mzeFf11b_xrpI1qP2i%S4wvglBEZQuame the first country in Asia to register same-sex marriages on 24 May this year.

It came after parliament passed a same-sex marriage bill justgBb$NpEd&^LVE*Wti=P)Wr=pJgDorCaKQf^KoJCcj%%l2zIiZR a week before.

The government bill, which lxvC-^z&zYsQ%AIho*_PH!9%xK4z+heKX%6%ETrwNxr$I_IWK3nargely avoids the term ‘marriage’, had been labelled a compromise by LGBTI rights campaigners.

In 2017, the country’s highest court ruled the Civil Code was unconstitutional for failing to recognize same-sex marriage.

But, in a bitterly-fought referendum, most Taiwanese citizens opted for a separate marriage law rather than changing the civil code which would have brought genuine equality.

LGBTI rights campaigners accused conservative and Christian groups of running a well-funded campaign of hate and scare-mongering.

Taiwan’s parliament voted in favor of a government bill offering same-sex couples similar rights to opposite-sex couples after years of court rulings, referendums, and tussles in parliament.

The crucial 4th line of the bill passed with 93 lawmakers voting for the bill, 66 opposing, and 27 abstaining.

The story begins with Shiro Kido's reunion with a former classmate, Rio Kijima, at a college teacher's funeral.

With the intense eroticism and closeness, both men open up and feed into their desire. As their lust grows so does their toxic craving. The two become a relationship beyond the line while a mixture of emotions are drawn from the suffering Kijima.
