簡介 | The Appellant is a post-operative male-to-female transsexual person who has undergone sex reassignment surgery (“SRS”) at hospitals managed by the Hospital Authority in Hong Kong. She and her male partner wish to get married but the Respondent refused to celebrate their marriage, deciding that she does not qualify as “a woman” under the Marriage Ordinance (“MO”) and the Matrimonial Causes Ordinance (“MCO”). The Appellant brought judicial review proceedings to challenge that decision, contending that she ought in law to count as a woman for the purposes of marriage. |

題目 | Research Shows a Majority of People in Hong Kong Support Gay and Lesbian Couples’ Rights, Not Necessarily Marriage |
日期 | 2014 |
簡介 | Discussions in Hong Kong about same-sex couples’ rights often focus on the issue of same-sex marriage. However, marriage is not the only way the government could extend rights to same-sex couples. We conducted a public opinion survey to investigate Hong Kong people’s attitudes towards granting same-sex couples a variety of rights, including but not limited to the right to marry. We found that only 27% of the public completely agreed that same-sex couples should be permitted to marry, and 12% said that they somewhat agreed. However, when we asked about rights more generally, our findings were substantially different: 74% of the public supported granting same-sex couples either all or some of the rights that are accorded to heterosexual couples. The remainder of this briefing paper proceeds in two steps. We first provide background on our survey and present our findings. Afterwards, we explore the public policy implications of our research. |

題目 | Public Attitudes towards Gays and Lesbians and towards Sexual Orientation Anti-discrimination Legislation |
日期 | 20141108 |
簡介 | There is mounting discussion about introducing legislation in Hong Kong to prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation in the private sector. The Hong Kong Equal Opportunities Commission launched a Discrimination Law Review in July 2014 and has commissioned a study on the feasibility of legislating against discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, gender identity and intersex status. To inform this conversation, this briefing paper presents public opinion data from a 2013 telephone survey. We report public attitudes towards gays and lesbians and towards proposed anti-discrimination legislation. |

簡介 | This study aims to provide a latest update on public opinion towards LGBT+ legal rights in Hong Kong at the turn of the decade. There are two outstanding features. First, this study includes questions that were asked in previous studies so that public opinion on LGBT+ issues in Hong Kong can be compared across time. Second, this study explores how ‘framing’ (using different wordings to refer to LGBT+ rights) is associated with public opinion towards LGBT+ legal rights. |
