Xin says she still lives together with her wife, though she explained their relationship status has changed.
"In the future, my wife and I can use the term ‘sister’ for each other," she said. "We will still live together."

"Why did the parents have to dress up a boy as a girl, leading to the child's gender ambiguity? We should teach gender education," said one netizen.
"There are a lot of people in support here... I don't understand. How do you think the wife feels? She's going to spend the rest of her life as a joke," another added.
China appears to be taking some steps toward supporting broader LGBTQ rights, with the country allowing the screening of the film Moonlightand stopping the classification of homosexuality as a psychological disorder.
Still, same-sex marriages or civil unions are still not recognised in the country. LGBTQ topics remain taboo across more traditional parts of the country.
