How many countries considered Western (with understanding that this definition is disputed, but I'd say most of Europe, USA, Canada, Australia) aren't openly having a dialogue about LGBT issues, if not considering gay marriage (or other steps toward equality)? I agree that some communities within many western countries are very closed, but overall, I don't see the comparison to Japan as fair. Overall, LGBT issues are being discussed in the West, and they are not in Japan (and most other Asian countries).

Every country have different issues and I'm not saying others countries are just like Japan, but many "western" countries do their best to ignore the LGBT community, there's enough hate that many people hide their sexuality and if gay marriage is considered at all, the possibility is shut down ASAP.
So saying "Japan is behind (in LGBT issues), the Western world isn't" is... not exactly realistic.

But never mind, sometimes I forget the political/geographic PoV when talking about the world depends on the subject and this time, it's obvious you don't mean "Western countries" in geographical way, so obviously the list of countries is smaller that what I was thinking about.

Still, is worth to remember that in barely twenty-something countries gay marriage is legal and the number of countries that accept same-sex legal unions is around the same number, yet the world has almost 200 countries...
