China's first survey on gay men entitled "Chinese MSM (men who have sex with men): survey on sex and the state of self-identity" was completed in Beijing recently.

This 650,000-character report, supported by the Ford Foundation in the United States and published by Beijing Gender Consultation Center not only presents a comprehensive and in-depth view of China's MSM behavior and current status, but also reveals the covert social existence of China's gay groups and the cultural state of mind little known to the public.

This report, compiled by famous scholar and writer Tong Ge includes over 400 gay couples and their personal experiences in sexual intercourse. The report depicts the real status of China's gay couples and their emotions.

According to the introduction written by Pan Suiming, head of the Institute of Sexuality and Gender of Renmin University of China, this report depicts the way that Chinese MSM interact with their families and social environment.
