Where engaging in lesbian activity could cost you your life or get you caned—Part 2

My second five are: Botswana, Solomon Islands, Maldives, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and Yemen.

What I’ve noticed so far is that the countries that punish homosexuality tend to belong to either of two camps: 1. An Islamic country under Sharia law (usually punishes by lashing, stoning and imprisonment) or, surprise, surprise, 2. a former British protectorate/colony (using ancient British penal code that declares homosexual activity an unnatural offence/indecent practice between persons, usually punishes with years of imprisonment). No comment on the Islamic states but I do hope Britain will do more to clean up the messes it started.
