There are literally dozens of countries where homosexuality grants you the death penalty or prison for life.
There is not a single country on Asia who recognizes same-sex couples - and only South Africa on the whole continent of Africa - whose population will double or triple by the end of the century - does. So there is the reality of 75% of the world's population - and thus some 75% of UN's member countries. Want another example? On a lot of muslim countries you get the death penalty for leaving Islam (and unfortunately it seems more likely that more countries come up with such laws than abandon them right now).
We tend to forget that Western society and morals comprise but a tiny portion of the World's population, some 20%, if you are generous and throw the whole of Japan and Latin America in it. And it is a shrinking group, both on population and economic influence.
