g4rl1cg1rl wow, you have done so much EI work. to be honest, i am definitely way more intrigued with your research topic than my own, considering i’ve done absolutely NOTHING since mid-december (?). this sorta reminded me i better get going with my own EI work, which has made no progress as i mentioned.
you’re topic really interests me on the basis of china being really conservative, dare i say communistic, where queer ideology is a really thorny topic because it goes against many of those citizens beliefs. but in saying that, i just spent 10 minutes on google and found ancient colonisations, like you mentioned, that were quite queer - i even learnt that homosexuality was banned for a 20 year period (yikes). factors like a severe way to disrespect your family in china is by not having children can be another contributing factor. i don’t wanna sound teacher-y but you’ve really developed an intricate topic and as i said, i am definitely more interested in yours.
if you ever want to send through your work for me to proof-read or get an opinion, i’m more than happy to peer review in my procrastinating hours T-T. can’t wait to hear about your EI journey this year!
