Hells yeah, B3 — in many Muslim countries (the ones that take the Quran most strictly), homosexual acts lead to beheadings.

...and most of the Muslim world, unfortunately.

Coincidentally, Zircon, USAinIndia's blog gay news today put up a post specifically on that, see this video: usainindia - 2015-07-14 13:07:20
Here's What Happens When Two Men Hold Hands While Walking The Streets of Russia. In this new video from ChebuRussiaTV -- which has almost 4 million views on YouTube -- two men walk the streets of Moscow, Russia while holding hands in a social experiment to demonstrate how LGBT individuals are treated by the world around them. The video shows reactions ranging from verbal attacks to physical assault, with the video ending as a large man forcibly separates and threatens the pair. ... http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/heres-what-happens-when-two-men-hold-hands-while-walking-the-streets-of-russia_55a5206ae4b0ecec71bcf80b

Russia has become a very fascist country... then again Stalin was a fascist and his treatment of LGBT people is similar to Putin's. So same story, different character.

It seems that Russia is partying like it's the 1930's with the Anschluss with Crimea, treating eastern Ukraine like the Sudetenland and gays as the new untermensch.

Yes, I would agree. I'm an American, but have an old e-friend (from 2004 when we were on the same yahoo group) and visited him (and his wife and son) 2x, in 2011 & 2012. (Haven't been able to make it since, but it's definitely on the drawing board to return.) Yes, their laws and culture are still decades behind ours when it comes to "homosexuality"; I know that Nick's wife (my friends there in St. Petersburg) is staunchly anti-gay. So since I love the family so much, I'm sure to behave myself in Russia, I'd much rather do that, pretend I'm straight to them, than lose them as friends.


(By the way, I also know a few GAY guys in Russia & Eastern Europe too, just "e-friends" whom I've not (yet) visited. I don't know how difficult their daily lives may be. Maybe not much at all, since I do wear my earrings when I'm in Russia and there's no problem with that; maybe they and hairstyles & tattoos just = "Bohemian" there, and are not so much an indicator of gender preference.)
