It's a matter of balancing between what you know is right and what is considered to be politically correct in the country you visit, I guess...

That's where things tend to become tricky. I'm afraid that homophobes from Kenya or wherever keep their prejudism with them no matter where they travel... t2224

It's hypocritical to just observe them in your own country and not others
