Governments do seem to be "justice plus" in that they prove that it is possible to be even more than glacially slow. But yeah, in general terms I certainly won't ever support anywhere that is conspicuously anti-LGBT and will obviously not visit a country where my very existence is pretty much illegal: visiting with my gf could mean the wrong sort of "trip of a lifetime".

The awkwardness is how we deal with the intermediaries. Taking a hard-line stance can often have unintended consequences, not least the potential undermining of an influx of better values.
