I'm guessing that generally Japanese people don't have much awareness when it comes to homosexuality. My Japanese friend asked my why one of my friends who is lesbian and said that there are no gays in Japan. He even believed that famous TV personalities like Matsuko Deluxe and Ai Haruna are just "playing their characters". I'm guessing that there are not a lot of gays in Japan who are not out of the closet which is disappointing to witness even though recorded history of homosexuality in Japan
