I think this is new to many people and thus well worth reporting.
Also, homosexuality was decriminalised in Russia in 1993. The recent law bans distributing material about non-traditional sexual relations to minors. It does not make it illegal to be gay in Russia.
Contrast this to Qatar where it is illegal to be a male and homosexual - the punishment being a couple of years in prison and public lashing.
- awda 13y agoYeah, it's not illegal, just totally unsafe due to vigilante mobs enforcing perceived societal values. TOTALLY different. </sarcasm> Relative to each other, maybe it's better for gays in Russia than Qatar. But they're both pretty fucking awful compared to the rest of the world.
