7. Senegal
The 7th on this list of the 11 worst countries for LGBT travellers is Senegal. Like most of the countries in the African continent, Senegal outlaws homosexual activities, and there is a high rate of homophobia amongst its citizens.
Homosexual acts are punishable in Senegal by large fines, punishment, and even imprisonment – and minors are not exempted from said punishment! Reporting people for alleged engagement in homosexual activities and raids against suspected homosexuals are not uncommon. In fact, in June of 2015, seven people were convicted and jailed for six months after their home was raided and condoms were found.
