There are unfortunately places in the world where it would still be an absolute bloodbath (parts of the Middle East and Africa). There are however some places still in the "middle" that I think are still where the UK/US etc were decades ago, good example would be a lot of eastern European EU members where homosexuality is now legally accepted (because of compliance with various EU laws) but still not widely accepted socially in any overt sense.
