After Marriage Equality: Growing Up Queer with Chinese Parents
Since the Marriage Equality Plebiscite in 2017, attitudes toward LGBTQI+ rights within some parts of the Chinese-Australian community have become more progressive. Yet for many young people, coming out to their Chinese parents remains deeply challenging. Cultural expectations, generational gaps, and evolving views about identity can make the experience far from easy. In this episode, Wing Kuang and Bertin Huynh sit down with Lucy Xu, a 24-year-old postgraduate student in Melbourne, and Victor Wu, a 39-year-old filmmaker in Sydney, to talk about coming out in 2025. What does it mean to be queer and Chinese-Australian today? How do you honour family while living authentically? Join us as we explore how queer Chinese-Australians are navigating identity, tradition, and family expectations—while carving out space to live openly.
