Abstract
As we all know, China’s legislation on same-sex marriage has not been established so far. Public opinion is an important factor affecting legislation. The purpose of this study is to explore the tolerance degree of the general public towards homosexuality, Which can provide some reference for our same-sex marriage legislation. The significance of this study is to break the state of mutual isolation between homosexuals and the general public directly, so as to enhance the effective communication between the two groups and promote mutual understanding and tolerance. In terms of research methods, this paper selects several representative functional factors and United States Employment Service (USES), relevant parameters of comprehensive social survey to evaluate the inclusiveness of the general public. The study of this paper found that: compared with men, women are more tolerant of homosexual sexual behavior; With the increase of the age range, the public’s tolerance of homosexual sex tends to decrease. Among people with advantages in income and education, they also show more understanding and tolerant attitude towards homosexual sex. The general public’s tolerance of gay sex will increase as they learn more about gay sex on the Internet. However, it should be noted that there are group differences in the gain effect of the Internet, which is mainly manifested in the fact that women, urban residents, highly educated people and some young people influenced by the Internet are more affected by this effect.
