It definitely exists but it's not talked about. The older generation still considers it a "disease" or something you can "catch." Homosexuals do not show PDA in public but I've heard of designated areas for them at night. There are many kids who I know are gay, but their parents tend to ignore it and still force them to marry the opposite sex. Needless to say, China does not provide a friendly environment for the GLBT community. However, there has been progress. At least it's a subject that people can talk about now, as opposed to whispered about.
It's kind of ironic for a country that has the earliest documented acts of homosexuality. Emperors were also reported to have young gay lovers by their side.
