People's Dailys report on the first gay ”marriage” in China

Gay couple 'marries' in China

State media reported Jan.
 13 that a gay couple got "married" in a gay bar in Chengdu, China.

Zeng Anquan, 45, and Pan Wenjie, 27, tied the knot before 200 gay friends.

"We are no longer hiding anymore," Zeng told China Daily. "The wedding is our happiest and most precious moment. We don't care how others consider us, as long as we are together. (W)e are deeply in love and will never desert each other."

Zeng's brother responded to the wedding by freezing Zeng's capital in the company the two own, he said, and Zeng's sister told him she won't acknowledge him as her brother again until he breaks up with Pan.
