Asia seems to be the most obvious place to post this due to what I'm about to write but this applies to all continents...

So, in my experience, I've heard of various people boycotting going to certain countries (and less commonly, cities etc) for various reasons, including:

Russia - LGBT rights
Israel - Palestine and whatnot
USA - well...
various nations on religious grounds
and various other reasons e.g. a bad experience in a given country etc.

Now, I'm no exception - I have absolutely 0 intention on going back to Israel after being stuck in TLV on arrival when I first went there, the US just because, the Gulf Peninsula after living out there (more specifically Saudi Arabia) and knowing how dreadful it is and London...well...I just hate the place. Although, bar Israel, I guess I would at least travel through the aforementioned (not Israel as I have no need to go anywhere near there)

Incidentally, as an LGBT man living in Moscow with my husband, it seems that no one can even understand that not everywhere is as the media portrays. I've also noted that LGBT people are the most likely to boycott countries because of LGBT rights, which basically means half the world...and in my opinion, it seems somewhat naive.

Is it right to boycott a country or not?
