Some insight here: one of the key factors in Chinese cultural identity is the family unit. Whereas the American family unit is limited to yourself, your spouse, and your potential children, the Chinese family unit stretches further back to your parents/grandparents. There's a much stronger pressure to have and raise children, which impacts the cultural perception of LGBT rights.
