Homosexuality in Haitian Vodou is religiously acceptable and homosexuals are allowed to participate in all religious activities. However, in countries with large Vodou populations , some Christian influence may have given homosexuality a social stigma , at least on some levels of society.
Haitian Vodou itself has remained open to people of all sexual orientations. It is common knowledge in Haiti that a significant number of Haitian Vodou are gay. Many LGBT people in Haiti believe that it is easier to be open about one's sexuality and gender expression within Vodou culture, in the face of open hostility by mainstream Haitian society.
