A picture of a naked woman is seen next to electrical wires in the home of Xiao Cao, a 57-year-old gay man, in Shanghai April 22, 2012. China's gay community has long been on the edges of society but it is gradually becoming more accepted. Cao, who is an unemployed drag queen, is one whose life lifts the curtain on a less romanticised view of Chinese homosexuals. Living in an eight square metre apartment behind a public toilet and with a monthly income of 500 yuan ($79) from social insurance, he passes his days dancing in public and spending time with friends at gay clubs.

Přestože je Xiao Cao homosexuál, na zdech jeho pokoje visí také fotografie žen. Ženství ho fascinuje tak, že se s ním identifikoval. Za ženu se ovšem převléká jen po vymezený čas. Není "klasickým" transsexuálem, který se jako žena obléká pořád. | Foto: Reuters
