I would say that a majority of the nations are Islamic heavy populations or even in theory a theocratic based government.
there are some nations that do have an anti homosexuality slant "Its a mental illness" "Undesirable and you can be persecuted" like China, Russia, North Korea etc.

Indeed, and that’s an important consideration. Russia doesn’t show on the map, but if you watch Welcome to Chechnya you’d have to wonder why not. I don’t know much about it, but I’m sure the Orthodox Church was critical of Francis prior stance on homosexuality.
This statement is like the religious version of a marketing ploy. Were staunchly conservative Catholics being drawn to orthodoxy or Protestantism when the Catholic Church initially lightened its stance?
And not that it lessens your plight - but to any LGBTQ+ identifying persons here. The better parts of society welcome and accept whatever persuasions you have. It’s abhorrent I’m 2021 we’re talking about being brutalized or marginalized because of your orientation, and none of it is right. I do not mean to downplay one level of intolerance because of another.
