Taiwan had been colonized by the Chinese in the seventeenth century, and won by the Japanese from China in the 1894-1895 war. The Japanese had done much to develop industry and agriculture on the island. Japan's defeat in World War II restored the island to China, as a separate province. Chiang now declared that Taiwan was still a province of China, and its capital, Taibei, was now the new capital of the nation.

Although not all Taiwanese men are so inclined, there are ample opportunities for men to seek erotic pleasure outside of marriage in Taiwan.
