gayographic200909291For those of you unlucky enough to still be in the Capital during the eight-day masturbatory celebrations by the Communist Party, we at Gayographic feel your pain because we are stuck here as well. Rather than hide at home in our underwear with a bottle of gin (our usual nightly activity), we have decided to continue with the Gayographic nights at Lantung and Lan Club on Thursday and Friday despite the holiday celebrations. The big day will be October 1st and Lantung will be setting up a big screen and outdoor seating for the fireworks display so you can safely watch the festivities from the other side of town, far away from the hordes and the chaos. As usual, two-for-one drink specials will be on offer all evening long

The Weather is Smoggy, Wish You Were Queer

gayographic20090921For many of us living here in Beijing, the idea of a gay tour is usually nothing more than doing a quick walk around through the dark recesses of Destination on a Saturday night. However, there is a new tour guide company in Beijing that targets gay clients who are visiting China for some sightseeing and fun. ChinaMango was started in 2009 by a local Chinese who saw the need to provide specialized services (but not of any sexual kind!) for gay tourists. Jet from ChinaMango was convinced that gay tourists visiting the capital would like to visit gay-friendly establishments and meet local gay people during their sightseeing trips throughout Beijing. After a slow start, it seems that their idea is starting to pay off

iLOOK: GAY CHINA

   >09-09-01   >Posted by Ben Zhang   >Category: Gossip, News   >Tags: , , , ,

gayographic2009082345For the first time in China, a mainstream men’s fashion magazine iLOOK featured the word “GAY” on its cover. With the help of renowned photographer Xu Chuang, Chinese Dutch fashion designer Xander Zhou honorably takes the throne in his black velvet gown. Over 100 pages of special featured stories of gay social elites from all walks of life made this issue of iLOOK shockingly impressive. iLOOK has been acclaimed for its progressive trendy taste in men. This time, it has gone to literally say the name of the audience they are targeting. Nevertheless, the word “GAY” in the title “GAY CHINA” has been translated to mean “happy” to avoid trouble from you-know-who. On behalf of Gayographic, I want to extend my gratitude to Hong Huang and Xander Zhou for their accomplishment.
