LGBT rights in Rakeo

Legality of Same-Sex Sexual Activities

Enforcement

Pursuing information about another's sexual identity was ruled to be a form of voyeurism in 1997, effectively criminalizing enforcement of existing laws against homosexual persons.

Recognition of Same-Sex Relationships

Same-sex relationships are not seen as legal entities under Rakeo's laws, including same-sex marriage, domestic partnerships, or civil unions. This creates legal inequities in accessing widowers' pensions and similar government benefits provided to those in legally recognized relationships.

History

1838–1918

Rakeo was part of the Creeperian Colonial Empire as the Captaincy General of Rakeo, and enforced Catholic rule against homosexuality.
