LGBTQ+ Europe, Portugal, Azores, Funchal
Don't be complacent about rights affecting Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Questioning (or Queer) (LGBTQ) people. Rights vary greatly by country or legal jurisdiction – encompassing everything from the legal recognition of same-sex marriage to the death penalty for homosexuality. According to Wikipedia as of July 2020, the penal codes of nine United Nations-recognised countries, Afghanistan, Brunei, Iran, Iraq, Mauritania, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, and Yemen, impose the death penalty for homosexuality.
Portugal is ranked in the top five most LGBTQ+ friendliest countries in the world and comes a few places above the UK.The cities of Lisbon and Porto and the cosmopolitan Algarve region in the south are generally more accepting of LGBTQ+ identity than the conservative countryside.
Since the Carnation Revolution in 1974 (a bloodless revolution that ended the country’s military dictatorship) Portuguese society has become more progressive and open-minded on sexual orientation and LGBTQ+ issues.
In 1999 the first gay pride march took place in Lisbon, the country’s capital; since then LGBTQ+ pride events have taken place every year.
