There are none in the empire since the act is illegal in the nation but the only penalty is a fine.
The Liamese Empire is a Conservative, Imperialist, Celtic nation with a large Christian population.

People's sexualities are considered a very private thing in Pantopia. A gay or bisexual person in our nation usually only tells their parents and closest friends. Therefore there are probably gay people in the government, but it is not shared.

It is difficult to say precisely how many LGBT individuals are currently serving in the Charellian government, as politicians personal lives are not subject to nearly the level of scrutiny seen in other nations, and public discussion of their partners is seen as improprietous. That being said, the Head of National Council, Anna Smyth is known to be in long-term relationship with another woman, as they have appeared at several public events together.

EPHYRA: LGBT Presence in the Imperial Government



The Office of Public and National Information has compiled this response in accordance to guidelines from the Imperial Sphere of Information, with the sanction of His Glorious Majesty the Emperor. All responses are thus approved by the Order of the High Council, the most esteemed advisers to His Majesty. Let none doubt the truth of these words.



In the Undying Empire, homosexuality is regarded as an abnormality to be 'treated' as extremely as possible. To this end, it is an assurance that the Order of the High Council comprises only of heterosexual Ephyral purebloods. Furthermore, women are forbidden from holding a seat in the High Council.

An additional note; homosexuality is defined as the desire to reproduce with the same sex. This is inherently illogical. However, Ephyral engage in heterosexual sex not just for reproduction for but pleasure. To this end, it is known that men can engage in sexual activities with other men for pleasure rather than reproduction, as do women. However there is a stigma involving the top-bottom dichotomy that says a man who takes the position of a woman is no man at all.

Therefore if any man on the High Council has had sex with another man, then under no circumstance would he have been the submissive partner. This is where the bisexual part of the LGBT comes in. Ephyral can express sexual desire of pleasure to either sex if they find the other person ideally attractive, but will only express reproductive interests in the opposite sex. To this end one can consider all Ephyral to be somewhat bisexual in lust, but strictly heterosexual in reproductive desire. Those deviating from the latter are regarded as subhuman.

And finally, transgender/transsexual. Sex change operations are illegal in Ephyra. If you express an interest in changing your outward appearance from your biological sex to match the alternative, you are subhuman. If you cross-dress to match the other sex, you are subhuman. It is dangerous even to deviate from the expected norms of femininity or masculinity. Such individuals are not even treated for their affliction. They are experimented on, studied, and then usually disposed of.

So in short, there are no LGBT members on the High Council. All of them are men of the empire, pureblooded, many of whom are married with wives and children, and none of them contaminated by the desire to breed with the same sex, or change to the other.

There are a handful of openly gay politicians and bureaucrats working in the Manevi government. There are likely to be a handful of closet cases as well, but given our tolerance towards LGBT citizens, we wouldn't understand why or care enough to pry into the issue.

At last count, there are thirteen legislators and one minister that identify as LGBTQ. There are probably more politicians and government workers under that umbrella, but the fourteen people mentioned are the most prominent and well known.

Boringly integrated.

LGTB people had equal rights since the beginning.

(Not mentioning that to avoid the constant struggle of gender, sexual orientation and so on, most of the organic population has been modified by genetic engineering (we use heavyly VAT technology) towards bisexuality, polyamory and androginy.)

(Yes of course many of our genetic engineers, are anime fans, why do you ask?) :D

It is officially forbidden by Nifonese criminal code for a "dangerous sexual deviant (hentai)" to hold a public office. Nifonese officials are required to have a stronger moral code than the rest of the population and thus even crimes such as adultery are having more serious fines than for normal citizens.
