Overly religious countries tend to ban same sex marriage. Religious very often correlates to homophobia.

lol no shit, I'm a gay guy living in an overly religious country. which is why I'm confused about how the other person says that that correlation is "wrong".

The southern countries are marked as not homophobic but marked as catholic.

There are exceptions, e.g. Cologne is very liberal despite being catholic.
