Like many parts of Asia, the LGBT+ community is a heavily marginalised group in China. As a result, there is still a very strong stigma attached to being LGBT+ in China.

This causes many LGBT+ people in China to struggle with their sexuality. In a bid to promote greater self-acceptance, an LGBT+ organisation have come up with an innovative way to help those struggling with their sexual orientation.

Dear Straight People,

The coming out kit is called “A Journey to True Self” package. It includes guides and tutorials related to the topic of coming out.

“It won’t be a one-size-fits-all package, but it will be a gift to discover one’s true self.”

Hu Zhijun, founder of Trueself

Priced at 99 yuan ($15), the kit aims to help people come to terms with their sexuality. It took the Trueself team half a year to come up with the coming out kit.

Apart from coming up with the kit, Trueself also empowers the LGBT+ community through a range of other measures including a national hotline, workshops, conferences and more. You can find out more about Trueself here.
