Profile
Yen Sheng-hong is a Taiwanese entomologist and an openly gay man. He currently serves as an associate professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at National Sun Yat-sen University.
During Taiwan’s movement for marriage equality, Associate Professor Yen actively participated in advocacy efforts. Through opinion pieces in the media, featured essays, and public education initiatives, he offered scientific arguments grounded in evolutionary biology, countering the misinterpretations and misinformation circulated by anti-LGBTQ groups. His contributions provided an important perspective that complemented legal and human rights–based arguments at the time.
In addition, during the 2018 anti-LGBT referendums, he served as a co-initiator and press contact for the joint statement titled “Academic Workers Supporting Marriage Equality and Comprehensive Gender Equity Education.” He called upon fellow scholars to stand in support of gender equity education and marriage equality legislation, becoming one of the significant figures in Taiwan’s LGBTQ movement.
