OOC: I don't think the category. There's nothing here that reduces government control of people's private lives.
Also, does this happen anywhere IRL?
In no particular order, some variant(I can break that down if anyone would find it heplful) remains the law in:
- Dominican Republic
- Honduras
- Venezuela
- Bolivia
- Paraguay
- Some states in Mexico
- The Gaza Strip(and any other locations under rule by the HAMAS terrorist group)
- Algeria
- Libya
- Somalia (different formulations amongst all the actors, but they all have some variant)
- Angola
- Congo-Brazzaville
- Eritrea
- Kuwait
- Iraq
- Syria
- Bahrain (Supposedly repealing, but they have been 'repealing' it for several years and the cabinet rejected it)
- Lebanon (despite inclusion on Tinhampton's list, last I heard parliament was debating retaining it for underage girls)
- Greece (though it probably violates the ECHR)
- Serbia
- Russia
- Thailand
- The Phillipines
- Tajikistan
And special mention to Turkey, which previously repealed its law, and is now seeking to re-introduce it.
If you want to know where it is the cultural norm and still happens regularly despite no longer being the law, extrapolate from the above list.
