Opponents of same-sex marriage rally in TaipeiTAIPEI, Taiwan -- Over one hundred thousand people gathered on Ketagalan Boulevard on Saturday to rally against a bill to legalize same-sex marriage. Wearing white shirts as instructed by the organizer Taiwan Family (下一代幸福), attendees showed up to demand that a potential amendment to the Civil Code regarding same-sex marriage be "left to the people." Tseng said that if the people chose to legalize same-sex marriage via a referendum, Taiwan Family would respect the decision. 'Rainbow Terror'Student representatives at the rally noted that they — those who support traditional marriage and traditional gender norms — have become a silent majority at their schools due to fears of punishment for speaking up. Many young people attended the event to "debunk the idea that all young people are in favor of same-sex marriage" and to finally make their voices heard.
