talk about how the male gaze truly permeates through society. (a concept that i learned in dance, gender, and history, but interesting how it comes up in law). Talking about a law in Hong Kong and gay sex.

"The laws prohibited ``gross indecency'' or sexual intimacy between men if one or both are under 21. But heterosexual and lesbian couples who are 16 or older can legally have such relations.

Under the laws, gay men who engage in consensual sodomy when either is under 21 face life imprisonment. "

(bold edit: mine) This law got overthrown by a 20 year old guy. Wow, awesome how a small young voice can make a difference for a nation.
