We Tell Our Truths: Outright’s New LGBTIQ Country Overviews Are a Community Resource and a Reality Check

For all its flaws, the United States government long had some credibility when it came to human rights. This credibility came with limits, contradictions, and blatant hypocrisies, of course.

Breaking the Silence: The Criminalization of Lesbians and Bisexual Women and its Impacts

As of November 2024, consensual same-sex sexual conduct is criminalized in more than 60 jurisdictions worldwide—about a third of all countries—including more than 50 percent of Commonwealth countries. Most of these criminal laws stem from British colonial rule. Others are founded in Sharia law (Islamic law). ■ Of these criminalizing jurisdictions, at least 40 (more than 60 percent) criminalize same-sex sexual conduct between females. Even in jurisdictions that do not explicitly have laws against female same-sex sexual conduct, lesbians and bisexual women have been subjected to arrest or threat of arrest.
