China still has a long way to go to embrace homosexuality, but this beautiful video shows that they are getting closer.
A Beijing commuter captured the moment a man proposed to his boyfriend on the subway.
Now, we at Metro.co.uk love a good engagement video, but this is even more special.
Considering that homosexuality was only legalised in China in 1997 and taken off the Psychiatric Association’s list of mental illnesses in 2001, this engagement is as brave as it is beautiful.
Not only did the fellow passengers show acceptance with smiles, the video has been getting a lot of love on social media in China.
