I'm honestly very surprised there's as much green as there is.

What’s the difference between Legal and Same-Sex Marriage categories?

[–] Fubarberry@sopuli.xyz 36 points 1 year ago

Legal just means they won't arrest/execute you for being in a same sex relationship. Same sex marriage means they state will officially recognize you as married.

[–] jagungal@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Legal means that same-sex relationships are legal, but not marriage. Same-sex marriage means that the state recognises same-sex marriages.

I'm surprised in South Africa it's not only legal, but government recognized.

hey islam how’s it going?

[–] Omnificer@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago

There's also significant input from American Evangelicals contributing to these laws. For instance, Scott Lively an evangelical anti-gay activist, helped push for Uganda to penalize same-sex relationships with the death penalty. And Islam only makes up 13.7% of Uganda.

Busy touching it's forehead to the ground five times a day instead of progressing it's culture or human's rights in any way.

Shoutout to an Islamic culture that used to be much more advanced than medieval Europe.
