Taiwan has made significant strides in LGBTQ+ rights by officially allowing same-sex marriages between Chinese and Taiwanese citizens, ensuring they are treated equally under the law. This landmark decision follows Taiwan's historic achievement in 2019 when it became the first country in Asia to legalize same-sex marriage. With approximately 360,000 Chinese spouses of Taiwanese citizens, this recognition represents a major step toward inclusivity and equality, setting a precedent for other nations in the region to consider similar legal frameworks.
