Putting 1932 and 1993 in one colour isn’t the best choice…
Doesn’t say much, for example being an homosexual in Italy would have still been considered a crime under different pretences same for Napoleonic France.
Turkeye in 1858… what happened?
Wtf england was later than spain
It’s a shame
Edit: Don’t get me wrong! I mean it’s a shame that some countries legalized it that late.
Surprised on BiH. As I get it they pass anti-gay low after collapse of SFRJ?
The correct year for the UK was 1967. Northern Ireland doesn’t count.
Technically it was never illegal in Poland (because it was never mentioned)? I’m sure it was when we were divided between Russia, Prussia and Austria. It’s just that it’s a little strange to count that period, because Poland didn’t exist as a state at that time.
If they had to decide now, it would be still illegal.
Belgium didn’t exist in 1795, we were born the the year of our lord 1830.
For Romania the info is wrong. Homosexuality was decriminalized in 2001
Türkiyede eşcinsellik yasal mıymış amk, bir yaşıma daha giriyorum
In many countries, homosexual relations between two women was legalized (or never even banned) long before male homosexuality was. How is this illustrated in this map? Do you go by full legalization of homosexuality or only one of them?
Oh common! Greeks were like 500 BC minimum
There we go again. Butthole propaganda. And this is relevant how? It’s ok now. Why does it matter when and where?
Fuck off, Iceland!
Homosexuality was never illegal in Poland
1977 in croatia, i’m very unsure about that statistic
Ukranians passed it in first few months they got their independence 💪
Poland in 1932 and Bulgaria in 1968 is crazy and very unexpected!
What is the country off the coast of France? Is the person who made this map trying to sneak something by people?
Turkey, the most progressive country on the planet.
Please stop this gay propaganda!
Germany ’69 😎
Then what’s the point of protests and marches when it was all legalized decades ago ?
The pink color spans 99 years, blue spans like 106 years, and black is one single year.
If you’re going to separate out examples of the earliest and latest countries, it’s odd to me that they would span such vastly different time scales
England and Wales was 1967.
Scotland was 1981.
Northern Ireland was 1982.
France baise ouais
These numbers don’t make sense….. Belgium didn’t even exist until 1830…
Why doesn’t it correlate that much with the social acceptance/homophobia?
Some of the countries where it was „legalized“ later are much more tolerant than others.
How can it be 1795 in Belgium? The country only started existing since 1830.
Is it possible that homosexuality was ‘suspended’ by the Church for decades before being legalized again?
What do you mean “homosexuality”? The act? Showing it in public? Marriage? And what about “legalized”? Which one and what about cultural trends? And what about conquest, did the map take changing borders and removed states into account? I think this map is made poorly, especially given how important the topic is.

Weren’t ancient Greeks mad for the gayness?
Sources?
