This photo taken on June 14, 2017 shows Ren Weilian (R) and Zhu Tiantian walking in a street in Shanghai before departing on a five-day cruise during which they will have an unofficial wedding ceremony. China does not recognise same-sex unions but that's not stopping couples like Ren and Zhu tying the knot in informal ceremonies as the country's sexual minorities quietly assert their rights. / AFP PHOTO / STR (Photo credit should read STR/AFP via Getty Images)
