New rules are being drafted in Shanghai urging landlords not to rent rooms to same-sex partners, according to Reuters.
In addition to same-sex couples, unmarried couples were also included in the ambiguous report which does not make clear whether the new rules would merely become guidelines or be enforced by law.
Local media have denounced the plan as ‘arrogant’ and unjustifiably targeting the Chinese LGBT community and also the City's poorer inhabitants.
Disabled people, unmarried couples and obese people were also included on the list upon which the Chinese authorities cite a desire for children to grow up in “better conditions”
