When a gay foreigner visits France, he will probably encounter some homophobic manifestations. Due to the rigid social codes in France, the gay foreigners should expect some negative reactions from French locals. It is best for gay visitors to be very tolerant in such instances. However,
gay bashings can be avoided in suburb places and areas where there are less numbers of immigrants. So if you know you're a gay and you happen to be vacationing in France, remember to stay away from those places.
