Re: Gay Buddhists and other groups in Thailand.
I would like to point out that there is a Buddhist group in Taiwan that is outspoken regarding LGBT rights.
Similarly in Korea the Won Buddhist groups is known to be very supportive of LGBT rights.
I am not necessarily looking for a separate LGBT Buddhist organization. It could be a focus study group within a larger group. Or it could be that a specific Buddhist group has a strong support for LGBT rights.
There are different efforts regarding LGBT and non-Western religion. In the Philippines it the re-discovery of a pre-colonial god who is understood to be gay by contemporary Gay Filipinos.
In Indonessia there is the movie Wiwitan by a gay Indonesian film producer which touches a family story of a Wiwitan leader and his gay and Muslim on.
In the Thai pantheon of Gods are any known to have a same-sex romance?
I am doing research via multiple venues.
