CAPE VERDE / CABO VERDE-  A hard bargain: A good dancer automatically commands respect. In my village the best dancer was a gay man. Although gay men in Cape Verde are traditionally shunned, this man's dancing prowess made him incredibly popular, especially with women. He was invited to every party. - As of 2004, homosexuality is legal in Cape Verde.

SAO TOME and PRINCIPE - São Tomé and Príncipe to end ban on homosexuality (2011). - Sao Tome and Principe to legalize gay sex (2011, Alternate Link): Sao Tome and Principe, an island nation located off the west coast of Africa, will decriminalize gay sex in upcoming revisions to its Criminal Code, its representatives said Jan. 31 at the country's United Nations Universal Periodic Review session... The new code should be in place within four months, the delegation said. The Micronesian nation of Nauru reportedly made a similar pledge days earlier at its UPR session. The Universal Periodic Review, a project of the U.N. Human Rights Council, officially analyzes the human-rights record of each of the 192 U.N. member nations on a rotating basis once every four years, and urges reviewed nations to protect all human rights and fundamental freedoms.

Your basic little paradise (2003): Luis is committed to the country and its development and works for an NGO there. I asked him about life for gay people in STP? "If you can imagine a time warp of about 100 years when LGBT issues weren't yet issues, then you've captured STP. The issues simply aren't there - well, of course they're there, just like they were for Oscar Wilde - but they're not there because no one discusses them. They do exist, but they're not part of public - or even private - discourse. Several people here know I'm gay, and it has NO bearing on my daily life. The overall philosophy being 'Live and let live', no one seems to care. I was approached once by a local and that relationship lasted a while. People knew - or at least suspected - what was going on, and it affected no one's life, in or outside the bedroom."Luis told me that there is no organising around LGBT issues as a result of the "non-issue" of gay and lesbian people. There are no support groups and LGBT people stay largely in the closet. As for a social scene? "If you are gay, there are no places, at least that I'm aware of - and I've lived here for 8 years - to meet or socialise.
