Don't forget that homophobia is still completely rampant in Japan, a country that is nowhere close to legalizing gay marriage or showing any other side of widespread tolerance.
Keeping your sexual orientation secret is a necessary safety precaution in a country like that. Which is why we need to be vigilant and resist these anti-queer right wingers everywhere in the world including at home. People deserve to not feel unsafe simply because of their born identity.
…his boss immediately told a female employee without his consent. The man eventually had to leave the job due to mental issues that resulted from being ignored by the woman.
I wonder what her problem was. Homophobic or just heavily uncomfortable because of societal norms and standards?
Unfortunately, I don’t think employers seeing their employees as mere resources is exclusive to Japan. Though they definitely like to dial it up to 11 there.
