China has loved the "passion of the cut sleeve" - an ancient euphemism for dude-on-dude dicking - since the literal Han Dynasty (the era not the restaurant).
Beautiful stories abound in Chinese literature and history of queer love, from doting emperors to divine influencers in the spirit world. We are of course primarily concerned with the latter.
Tu'Er Shen, or "Rabbit God," got his start as a lowly bureaucrat in 18th century China, but now he presides over all our gay relationships, thanks to his connections in the Afterlife. You will want him on your team, so tune in to this week's episode and learn how to please capital H-I-M.
We'll also cover gay marriage in 17th century China because frankly we're the only journalists prepared to do so.
