Homophobia brought into Asia by Europeans?

by mrmister3622

Hi people of Reddit. People of the r/askhistory told me to post this here. I am doing a research paper and I want to do the introduction of homophobia into Asia. I heard somewhere on Reddit that homophobia was brought by a British man into Asia. I could not find any sources for it though. Can anyone help me out?

There was a question about the legalisation of homosexuality in the Ottoman Empire, I think this answer by u/PaxOttomanica might help you
