    Out-of-topic but serious, to bounce on your pun :
    We have that in France in another context, not related to sexual activities. Giving a helping hand to someone whose presénce in France isn’t considered legal. (max several years in prison and several k€ in fine, plus other harsh complementary sentences)
    https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/codes/id/LEGISCTA000042774527/

    So, giving a place to sleep to a refugee from a country with harsh repression toward LGBT+ can in practice be harshly punished. (Not in theory, since there’s an exception for pure humanitarian support, but he defendant will have to prove it and convince the court.)

      Christ, that’s essentially an “arrest Miep Gies” law. Even in the US there’s no equivalent, at least not one that could apply for just giving someone a bed for the night. How the fuck does a country setup the law like that after spending the better part of WWII under Nazi occupation?
