Gay senegal

LGBT rights in Senegal remain a contentious issue, with significant challenges faced by both locals and tourists alike. While homosexuality is currently illegal in the country punishable by imprisonment, the situation for LGBT individuals and advocates can be complex and ever-changing.

Senegal specifically outlaws same-sex sexual acts and, in the past, has prosecuted men accused of homosexuality. Members of the LGBTQ community face routine discrimination in Senegalese society.
