Rights of homosexuals in the world: Australia

As in the United States, there are a number of differences in legislation between the states of the Australian union. This split is especially developed for LGBT rights, including the issue of parenting and civil unions.

Australia, a former British colony, has inherited many texts and codes of the United Kingdom. Thus, lesbianism was not illegal. However, sodomy was considered a crime punishable by death (until 1899) and subsequently could lead to jail for life.

The movement for the rights of homosexual was born from the late 1960s. The first was imported from the United States, with the creation of a local branch of the Daughters of Bilitis in 1969, followed in 1970 by the movement against the legal persecution . Therefore, many associations are created representative of LGBT people, including professions like teachers,lawyers … From 1972 until 1980, all states of the union with the exception of Tasmania depenalize homosexuality. It will not be legally recognized by the federal government in 1994.
