גאה במונקו

Same-sex partnerships are recognised in מונקו, though full marriage may still be pending. The Legal Status panel above has the current position. Monaco has had legal same-sex relations since 1793 under French revolutionary law and an equal age of consent of 15. Since June 2020 same-sex couples can sign a cohabitation agreement that covers housing, inheritance and some benefits, but there is no marriage or civil union and same-sex couples cannot adopt. Hate speech on grounds of sexual orientation has been illegal since 2005, and the penal code was amended in 2019 to make sexual orientation an aggravating factor in violent crime; there is no broader anti-discrimination statute, and legal gender change is not possible. The principality is Catholic, wealthy and discreet. There are no gay bars or events, and nobody is looking for them; residents and visitors who want a scene go to Nice, twenty minutes away. Same-sex couples face no trouble in hotels, restaurants or casinos. Princess Stéphanie's daughter marched in New York Pride in 2017, which is about as public as Monaco gets on the subject.
