In my country it was only made legal in 1967.
Btw you need to stop suggesting people go and live in Saudi just because they stand for Biblical Christianity, which is not accepted in Saudi and also is run by Sharia Law; which is why none of us live there. There is a tremendous difference between God’s Law and Sharia Law.
True Christianity and Islam are extremely different.

But I have already proven that to be false. But let's roll with that for a minute. So if two secularists wanted to make a law, one to approve of transgender athletes to play on the team of the opposite gender, while the other secularist looks at case studies and evidence to pass a law banning it. Your okay with either choice because there is no absolute right or wrong in a secular society. You only have mob rule or popular opinion. Which means minority rights are not protected.
You do not have to answer the question because it is pointless other than preference if right and wrong do not exist.
So let's revert to why your statement is false. I'll let George Washington speak.
George Washington put his finger on the importance of preserving a freedom of religion within a society:
Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports. In vain would that man claim the tribute of patriotism who should labor to subvert these great pillars of human happiness-these firmest props of the duties of men and citizens. The mere politician, equally with the pious man, ought to respect and to cherish them. A volume could not trace all their connections with private and public felicity. Let it simply be asked, “where is the security for property, for reputation, for life, if the sense of religious obligation desert the oaths which are the instruments of investigation in the courts of justice?” And let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion. Whatever may be conceded to the influence of refined education on minds of peculiar structure, reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle.
It is substantially true that virtue or morality is a necessary spring of popular government. The rule indeed extends with more or less force to every species of free government. Who this is a sincere friend to it can look with indifference upon attempts to shake the foundation of the fabric?
Without morality, society rots like a decaying tooth, from the inside out. As we are seeing now.

Again who's morality? Who says my beliefs are wrong compared to yours?
Do you put people in jail for drunk driving? Do we legislate bad behavior to protect citizens from it's consequences?
Now is homosexuality healthy for society or not healthy? Is it beneficial? Does it make our society stronger?
What does the Bible say also?
