Google dancers and transvest ballerinas ,they don’t often star at Japanese political rallies ,but they do it . candidate is Kanako Otsuji, the first openly gay politician to run for parliament in Japan.
No one here recognizes the sexual minorities living in same societies ,hedral sexual ,I want to make it visible.
In the west , gay rights are often from Kanako’s news, but here the issue is private and Kanako Otsuji rally will ask not to show her supporters on camera , Japanese society is conservative and put tremendous pressure on its people to fill certain roles ,making it difficult for outsiders like Otsuji to fit in.
There is culture of shame here , the shame of individual becomes the shame of the family, while I told my mother I was a lesbian ,she couldn’t accept it ,we didn’t talk about it again for another 3 to 4 years.
Otsuji eventually decided 1 to talk about it with public. In 2003 she became a legislator in western Japan., but she didn’t come out as lesbian politician until 2 years later at a gay parading in Tokyo with message for closet voters nation wide.
To drive on the message that is ok for Japanese people to be gay , Otsuji decide to set up campaign office here in Tokyo’s gay district , to people this community, Otsuji is something of hero.
This is our town.
Otsuji has won a baking of the nations largest opposition 2 party, as part of her election campaign , Otsuji and her partner held full wedding with proud appearance looking on.
If elected , your hopes is to help ban discrimination ,and to draft legal rights for sameless couples ,but if she looses it would be tougher for the gay community to solve its problem politically, my defeats wouldn’t stop Japan’s gays from coming out the closet.
In that sense gay communities seize itself already on the wining pass.
