No, she probably did mean there are very few homosexuals in China, most Chinese think this because, at least until a few years ago, that is what the Chinese media and state education were telling them. Many Chinese also at least half-believe that it is the result of western influence and there were no homosexuals in China until foreigners arrived in the country.

There are very few places in the world where the gay life-style is openly embraced. Most of the time it is sort of "don't ask, don't tell" type environment, and that is where China is right now. Other than that, I don't expect a homosexual person will encounter a burning cross in front of his home. I think homosexual would encounter much more open hostility in US than they would in China.
