This country led the way with searches for “teen anal sex videos,” followed by the U.S. It also landed in the top 10 gay sex pics, shemale sex and anal sex videos. Homosexual sex had been criminalized in India since 1860, but the Delhi High Court overturned the ban in 1999. In 2013, the Supreme Court reinstated Section 377 of India’s Penal Code. It reads: “whoever voluntarily has carnal intercourse against the order of nature with any man, woman or animal shall be punished with imprisonment for life, or with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to 10 years, and shall also be liable to fine.” (Huffington Post).
Nigeria takes fourth place on the scale for searches of both gay sex pics and anal sex pics. Mother Jones published this article on March 13 highlighting the hell the LGBT community faces daily. The article is titled, “You Thought It Was Tough Being Gay in Uganda. It’s Hell in Nigeria.” A 2007 Pew Global Attributes Project gauged 97 percent of Nigeria as viewing homosexuality as an unacceptable way of living. In January, Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan signed a law banning gay marriage and establishing a 14-year jail sentence for those accused of homosexual relations.
This little island off of the Indian peninsula is high up on many Google search lists for same-sex porn. It’s No. 4 for gay sex pics, No. 2 for shemale sex, and No. 4 for anal sex videos. While not as explicitly anti-gay with its legislation as many other countries, Sri Lanka has Article 365A, which instates a blanket law making “gross indecency” illegal. There is little-to-no protection in this country for members of the LGBT community.
The Arabian Peninsula country of Yemen is No. 1 for typing in “teen anal sex.” To be clear, the exact Google Trends result is not for videos or pics, but simply “teen anal sex.” Also scoring high in this search category are Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Iraq. Gay websites are blocked in Yemen. What kind of research could all its searches imply? Simple awareness of a subject, or limited methods to access desired images? Yemen is not a gay-friendly country. The Sharia legal systems have made homosexuality completely illegal. Punishments range from public flogging to jail time. Extremists, many of whom are thought to be associated with Al-Qaeda, have killed people on the streets accused of homosexuality.
In Jamiaca, gay sex videos rank No. 4 in worldwide searches. It’s not all beaches and Bob Marley in this paradise. Some of the most brutal anti-gay crimes ever have occurred here, although the government claims that it takes necessary measures to prevent and protect its endangered citizens. The laws do not reflect this. The Jamaican Offenses Against the Persons Act makes anal sex and buggery a crime punishable by at least 10 years in prison. Any “acts of gross indecency” between men is also criminal. While lesbians have allegedly not faced as harsh treatment, Amnesty International warns of vigilante actions being committed against all members of the Jamaican LGBT community.
The U.S. is in the top 10 for searches worldwide of gay sex pics, anal sex videos and free porn anal. It leads the way in “anal sex porn” hits. Laws passed in 19 states now legalize same-sex marriage, and the call for equal matrimonial rights for all 50 states has legislators’ attention. However, the struggle for tolerance continues. Acts of violence have occurred in the last few years that show everyone is on the same train. In gay marriage friendly New York City, police commissioner Ray Kelly said hate crimes against gays spiked 70 percent in 2013. The May 2013 murder of Mark Carson in Greenwich Village was one of many incidents raising questions about continued cultural intolerance despite political gains.
Tanzania is the No. 1 country worldwide for typing in “anal sex videos” on Google searches. The Pew Global Attributes Project found that 95 percent of the Tanzanian population is against the homosexual way of life. The Penal Code of 1945 has Section 154, named “Unnatural Offenses,” which says that any person who has: “(a) has carnal knowledge of any person against the order of nature; or (b) has carnal knowledge of an animal; or
(c) permits a male person to have carnal knowledge of him or her against the order of nature commits an offence, and is liable to imprisonment for life and in any case to imprisonment for a term of not less than 30 years.” It also groups pedophilia in with homosexual acts. The semi-autonomous island of Zanzibar also gives a maximum of five years imprisonment to acts between women.
Kenya is listed as No. 1 for searches of “anal porn pics”and “gay sex pics.” It also makes the top 10 for “anal sex videos” hits. Debates for tightening the reigns on the laws already in place have been circulating around Kenyan Parliament since its sister country Uganda passed an anti-gay bill in February. Same-sex acts are punishable by up to 14 years in prison, although no one has been convicted. Kenyan lawmaker Irungu Kang’ata said, “The whole idea is, Kenya we do have anti-gay laws, they are there in our books, in our statutes. The issue is about enforcement.” (Voice of America).
With pretty much every single pornography genre aformentioned, you’ll find Pakistan on the list. As of summer of 2013, Pakistan had the highest volume of gay porn searches of any country. Today, it’s at No. 1 worldwide for “shemale sex,” No. 2 for “teen anal sex,” No. 3 for “gay sex pics,” and No. 5 for “gay sex videos.” Just 2 percent of Pakistan’s extremely conservative, predominately Muslim population has said that the country should accept homosexuality as a way of life. Many Pakistani men of the Muslim faith are thought to engage in same-sex relations with men, yet do not categorize themselves as gay. The punishment for gay “indecency” is up to 10 years in prison, and buggery carries even heavier sentences.
Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni is not a friend of the gay population. He propagates an ideology of malevolence against the LGBT community, which has suffered verbal and physical assaults, and in some cases grisly murders. Uganda is No. 3 worldwide for one of the top homosexual porn search topics. Museveni signed off on the Anti-Homosexual Act in February that would put “repeated offenders” in prison for life. It also threatens the lives of people working for local non-governmental organizations who are aware of — but do not report — same-sex acts, and of Ugandans living abroad. Apparently, 96 percent of the country does not favor homosexuality. As seen with most of these 10 countries, there may be a huge gap between what people say, and what they do before they hit search.
