What does the moroccan law say about homosexuality ?

Like we all know the LGBT community in Morocco faces legal challenges not experienced by the other resident.

Both male and female same-sex sexual activity is illegal in our lovely country.

“ article 489 of the Penal Code of Morocco criminalizes "lewd or unnatural acts with an individual of the same sex". Same-sex sexual activity is illegal in Morocco and can be punished with anything from 6 months to 3 years' imprisonment and a fine of 120 to 1,200 dirhams, However, the law is sporadically enforced by the authorities, with a degree of tolerance extended to homosexuality in the holiday resorts like Marrakech  The legal status of LGBT people living in Morocco stems largely from traditional Islamic morality, which views homosexuality and crosses dressing as signs of immorality.”

In 2016, two girls were arrested in Marrakech after one's cousin took a photo of them kissing. This sparked international outcry and the use of the hashtag #freethegirls. Their case was postponed until December 2016. In early December 2016, the two girls were acquitted.

So This can give you an idea of the country that criminalizes, punished and imprisonment people because they fell in love or kiss each other, a country that forget all about the major problems and issues they have and focus on the sexuality of a person and what are you doing in your bedroom …

And for Discrimination or harassment on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity is not addressed in any Moroccan civil rights laws. Most Moroccan citizens were raised to believe that homosexuality and gender identity are signs of western decadence or immorality and the government does not consider it "in the best interests of the people of Morocco" to formally address the issue of LGBT-rights in Morocco.

You are living in a country that hates you, jail you, discriminate you and don’t even respect you presence or listing to your voice … give us your opinions and point of view on this
