For many in Japan and elsewhere in Asia, though, the hardships are daunting and few outside the entertainment industry are open about being lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender. Most people working in mainstream companies stay closeted. “First of all, it will take a huge toll on one’s promo- tion possibilities,” said a 30-year-old gay man who works at one of South Korea’s top companies and who requested anonymity. He did not want his employer identified for fear of reprisals and no one at his company knows he is gay, he said. “People in senior posi- tions are older, and they are not open-minded. It’s not just at my company. I never heard of anyone at any other company” going public about being gay, he added. “It’s not socially accepted.” The east-west cultural divide on LGBT issues was at the center of a lawsuit in Hong Kong filed by a British woman whose les- bian spouse was repeatedly not granted a spouse visa. She had to periodically leave and return to Hong Kong on a tourist visa. The case is still pending. Companies in Asia can embrace change despite laws that lag behind international standards, as many companies in the west did years ago for the sake of attracting the best talent, said Michael Vidler, the plaintiff’s lawyer. “They’re not doing it out of the goodness of their hearts. They are doing it because of the bottom line,” he said. Panasonic should be applauded for making the first move, said John Chal- lenger, chief executive of Challenger, Gray & Christ- mas Inc., a Chicago-based company that specializes in jobs and careers. “A spouse is a spouse,” he said. “People have come to the conclusion there is no reason for people to hide their sexuality. Why put them through that stress?” Associated Press writers Kelvin Chan in Hong Kong, Teresa Cerojano in Manila, and Isolda Morillo in Beijing contributed to this report.
