    BEIJING, Feb. 8 -- China's first survey report on gay groups entitled "Chinese MSM (men who have sex with men): survey on sex and the state of self-identity" was completed in Beijing recently.

    This 650,000-character survey report supported by the Ford Foundation in the United States and published by Beijing Gender Consultation Center not only presents a comprehensive, in-depth, concrete and true reflection of China's MSM behavior and current status, but also reveals covert social existence of China's gay groups and cultural state of mind little known to the public from the point of view of sociology of sex.

    This report written by famous scholar and writer Tong Ge includes over 400 cases of MSM and personal experience of sexual intercourse. These cases show the real status of Chinese gay groups' aesthetic desire, approaches of sexual intercourse, emotions and self-value assessment.

    According to the prelude composed by Pan Suiming, head of the Institute of Sexuality and Gender of Renmin University of China, this report depicts the way that Chinese MSM's feelings, awareness and expressions are demonstrated and the target of such demonstration in different families, social environment, processes of growth and selective mechanisms. Most importantly, it amplifies how two or more main parties in different sexual intercourses carry out communication, coordination and maintenance for the above mentioned feelings.
