Homosexual activity is FORBIDEN for both MUSLIM males and females.
For non-muslims, a non implemented old colonial law FORBIDS "the introduction of the penis into the anus or mouth" to EVERYONE, whether they are straight or gay, married or not. Oral sex without the use of a penis is not penalized."
