China's first lesbian film quietly tests limits

There have been films about gay men for years in China; I'm surprised it took so long for lesbianism to be addressed.

Apparently, homosexuality is a touchy subject in China, and until recently it's been officially a mental illness there. Why? I mean, the PRC is always trying to cut the birth rate, and it seems to me to be a pretty good method of birth control. But who said governments were logical?
