Court to consider gay rights group

Trending across ChinaA 20-year-old man in Changsha, Hunan province, sued the local bureau of civil affairs in court on Wednesday for not allowing him to establish an organization that centers on homosexual culture.

The man applied to set up a civil organization that centers on homosexual culture in late 2013, but was refused by the city bureau of civil affairs, which cited the marriage law in China, which says marriage is between a male and female. "Homosexuality is not in line with China's traditional culture, and organizations promoting culture of this kind are not allowed to be set up," it said.

The man said he has been running the organization since 2009 but had a hard time getting it legalized.

Kaifu district court has accepted the petition and will reply in seven working days.

Man swindled by rental girlfriend

Wang Wei, a 32-year-old man in Yancheng, Jiangsu province, was cheated out of more than 80,000 yuan ($13,168) by his rental girlfriend. He had found her on a dating website, to join him for his family reunion during the Spring Festival holiday, at 500 yuan a day.

Wang got the idea of renting a girlfriend for Spring Festival because he was being heavily pushed by his family toward marriage. The girlfriend he rented was a 22-year-old from Anhui province, who faked her identity on dating websites. She told Wang's mother during Spring Festival that her father was in the hospital and borrowed 80,000 yuan from the mother, and disappeared from the train station. The police eventually found her and she was arrested.
