Taiwan Has Approved Same-Sex Marriage in a First for Asia
台灣已經批准同性婚姻在亞洲是第一個
BY RALPH JENNINGS / AP UPDATED: MAY 17, 2019 3:00 AM ET
(TAIPEI, Taiwan) — Taiwan’s legislature voted Friday to legalize same-sex
marriage, a first in Asia and a boost for LGBT rights activists who had
championed the cause for two decades.
台灣立法機構週五投票決定將同性婚姻合法化,這是亞洲的第一次婚姻,也是對已經支持
這項事業20年的LGBT權利活動家的推動。
Lawmakers pressured by LGBT groups as well as church organizations opposed to
the move approved most of a government-sponsored bill that recognizes
same-sex marriages and gives couples many of the tax, insurance and child
custody benefits available to male-female married couples.
LGBT團體以及反對這一行動的教會組織向立法者施加壓力,批准了大多數政府贊助的承認
同性婚姻的法案,並為夫妻提供了許多男女婚姻夫妻可享受的稅,保險和子女監護權福利
。
That makes Taiwan the first place in Asia with a comprehensive law both
allowing and laying out the terms of same-sex marriage.
這使得台灣成為亞洲第一個擁有全面法律的地方,允許並規定了同性婚姻的條款。
“It’s a breakthrough, I have to say so. I could not imagine that could
happen in just a few years,” said Shiau Hong-chi, professor of gender
studies and communications management at Shih-Hsin University in Taiwan.
“這是一個突破,我必須這麼說。 我無法想像這可能在短短幾年內發生,“台灣世新大
學性別研究和傳播管理教授Shiau Hong-chi說。
“#Taiwan’s action today should sound a clarion call, kicking off a larger
movement across #Asia to ensure equality for LGBT people and pro-active
protection of their rights by governments throughout the region,” Phil
Robertson, deputy Asia director for Human Rights Watch, wrote on Twitter. “
No more excuses!”
“#Taiwan今日採取的行動應該是一個號角,在#Asia之間啟動一場更大的運動,以確保
LGBT人群的平等,以及整個地區政府積極保護他們的權利,”人權觀察亞洲副主任Phil
Robertson說道。 ,在Twitter上寫道。 “別再找藉口!”
Thousands of people, including same-sex couples, demonstrated Friday morning
in the rainy streets outside parliament before the vote. Many carried
rainbow-colored placards reading “the vote cannot fail.” About 50 opponents
sat under a tent outside parliament and gave speeches favoring marriage
between only men and women.
在投票前,成千上萬的人,包括同性伴侶,在星期五早上在議會外的多雨街道上示威。
許多人帶著彩虹色的標語牌上寫著“投票不能失敗。”大約50名反對者坐在議會外的帳篷
下,並發表了有利於男女之間婚姻的言論。
Taiwan’s Constitutional Court in May 2017 said the constitution allows
same-sex marriages and gave parliament two years to adjust laws accordingly.
台灣憲法法院於2017年5月表示,憲法允許同性婚姻,並給議會兩年時間相應調整法律。
The court order mobilized LGBT advocacy groups pushing for fair treatment, as
well as opponents among church groups and advocates of traditional Chinese
family values that stress the importance of marriage and producing offspring.
法院命令動員LGBT倡導團體推動公平待遇,以及教會團體中的反對者和中國傳統家庭價值
觀的倡導者,強調婚姻和生育後代的重要性。
Religion, conservative values and political systems that discourage LGBT
activism have stopped momentum toward same-sex marriage in many Asian
countries from Japan through much of Southeast Asia, although Thailand is
exploring the legalization of same-sex civil partnerships.
儘管泰國正在探索同性民事伴侶關係的合法化,但在許多亞洲國家從日本到東南亞的大部
分地區,宗教,保守的價值觀和政治制度阻礙了LGBT活動,阻止了同性婚姻的勢力。
Taiwan’s acceptance of gay and lesbian relationships began in the 1990s when
leaders in today’s ruling Democratic Progressive Party championed the cause
to help Taiwan stand out in Asia as an open society.
台灣對同性戀關係的接受始於20世紀90年代,今天執政的民進黨的領導人支持這一法案
幫助台灣作為一個開放的社會在亞洲脫穎而出。
Although claimed by China as its own territory, Taiwan is a self-governing
democracy with a vibrant civil society dedicated to promoting rights for
sexual and ethnic minorities, women, the handicapped and others.
雖然中國聲稱是自己的領土,但台灣是一個自治的民主國家,擁有一個充滿活力的民間社
會,致力於促進性和少數民族,婦女,殘疾人和其他人的權利。
Ruled by the authoritarian Communist Party, China remains much more
conservative and officials have repeatedly discouraged even the discussion of
legalizing same-sex marriage.
在威權共產黨統治下,中國仍然保守得多,官員們一再勸阻甚至討論將同性婚姻合法化的
問題。
Opponents in Taiwan raised fears of incest, insurance scams and children
confused by having two mothers or two fathers. Both sides of the issue have
held colorful street demonstrations and lobbied lawmakers.
台灣的反對者對兩個母親或兩個父親的亂倫,保險詐騙和兒童感到困惑。 這個問題的雙
方都舉行了豐富多彩的街頭示威和遊說立法者。
In November 2018, a majority of Taiwan voters rejected same-sex marriage in
an advisory referendum. However, legislators favoring the bill, and voting
separately on each item largely along party lines, said it followed the law
as well as the spirit of the referendum.
在2018年11月,大多數台灣選民拒絕了同性婚姻諮詢公投。
但是,立法者贊成該法案並進行投票在很大程度上沿著黨派路線分別對每個項目說,它遵
循法律以及公民投票的精神。
