Homosexuality and Confucianism

Confucianism, being primarily a social and political philosophy, focused little on sexuality; whether homosexual or heterosexual.

However, the ideology did emphasize male friendships, and Louis Crompton has argued that the "closeness of the master-disciple bond it fostered may have subtly facilitated homosexuality".

Homosexuality is not mentioned in the Analects of Confucius.
