11. Angola
We take our list now to South Africa as we look at Angola. While they did just ratify a new constitution within this decade that acknowledges the equal rights of their citizens, their laws still have some peculiar wording to penalize homosexual acts, or “acts against nature” as they call them. People caught taking part in homosexual acts, or even cross-dressing, can be sentenced to jail, as well as a hefty fine. And if you’re a repeat offender? Well you can face not only those, but also a sentencing to a forced labor camp if you don’t learn your lesson.
