This page says homosexual activity has been legal in the UK since 2000.<p>Where is it getting that, and which part of the UK does it apply to?<p>Same sex sexual activity was legalised in England and Wales in 1967; in Scotland in 1981; and 1982 for NI.<p>The age of consent was equalised in 2001 (for England, Wales, and Scotland) and 2009 for NI.

Would be cool for the &quot;Equality Index&quot; to be 2 or multi dimensional. I feel like laws on adoption, gender&#x2F;sex change, age of consent, blood donations, marriage etc. fall on the absolute&#x2F;objective liberty spectrum. While stuff like anti-discrimination laws, housing policies, conversion therapy bans etc are interventionist regulations.<p>Also needs more categories&#x2F;granularity.<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;get.lgbt" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;get.lgbt</a> you should get one :D

The text box for inputting countries seems to be a bit broken. Seems to stop giving suggestions after some time or it just me?

On the &#x27;comparison&#x27; pages, the Equality Index score is listed as a horizontal bar chart, which makes at-a-glance comparison impossible. If you need to keep it as a bar, please consider making them vertical, so you can easily compare visually. Currently, I&#x27;m only able to compare that score based on color, so places with the same color aren&#x27;t comparable on that metric. Personally, I&#x27;d prefer if you just put your number there.<p>Of course, I can just keep using right click -&gt; Inspect Element :)

Why, for &quot;Conversion therapy&quot;, being banned is the best status possible, according to this website?

I like it. Would be cool to apply the concept to more ideas, like free speech, religious&#x2F;atheist freedom, gun rights, economic freedom&#x2F;protections.

Homosexuality was never illegal in Poland. It wasn&#x27;t regulated before 1932.
