A lesbian boxer has taken a stand for gay rights by sharing a photo of herself publicly kissing her girlfriend in the Maldives, where homosexuality is against the law. Same-sex sexual activity is strictly prohibited in the island nation and is punishable by up to eight years in prison for non- Muslims. April, 24, tweeted a picture of herself kissing her girlfriend in the ocean. The caption read: “Illegal to be gay in the Maldives and other Muslim countries still, in this day and age is mental, anyways this is our thought.” April reportedly took the photo down at the request of friends and family, who feared she might face repercussions from Maldivian authorities. She later uploaded the image on her return to the UK, but it is no longer visible on her public Twitter or Instagram accounts. 📧 Online platforms are fighting against content they find too sensitive by reducing post reach, strikes, removal of controversial posts...
