LGBT ideology-free zone

A LGBT ideology-free zone is an area of the world (or country) where people are not allowed to express their LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and/or transgender) beliefs or identities. In some of these places, it may even be illegal for people to talk about being LGBT. This usually means that LGBT people cannot be open about their views or who they are and might have to hide it from others.
