Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people in Honduras face legal challenges not experienced by non-LGBTQ residents.

"[9] In May 2022, the deputy of the Libertad y Refundación (Libre) Party, Manuel Rodríguez, presented a bill to the National Congress for same-sex marriage.

However, the president of the Tegucigalpa Pastors' Association, Gerardo Irías, described the approval of the name change to LGBTI and the bill's claim for gays to get married as an "aberration in God's eyes".

[11] In May 2018, relying on the IACHR advisory opinion, Honduran LGBT activists filed a suit with the Supreme Court to legalise same-sex marriage in Honduras.

In 2004, the Honduran Government extended formal recognition to three LGBTQ rights interest groups, despite organized protests from the Catholic Church, Pentecostals, and conservative legislators.

Only a handful of dissident members within the leftist Democratic Unification Party have expressed some interest in working with the LGBT community.

LGBT rights organizations have documented numerous instances in which police have used the law as a pretext for harassing and detaining transgender women.

[5] International human rights organizations have stated that the military Government has targeted LGBT people for harassment, abuse and murder.

[27] Walter Tróchez, a Honduran political activist and LGBT rights leader, was allegedly assassinated on 13 December 2009, by members of the anti-Zelaya regime for organizing dissent against the new Government.

The socially conservative influence of the Catholic Church and evangelical Protestants has made it difficult for any comprehensive public program to be implemented.

[31] A 2018 CID Gallup poll found that 75% of Hondurans opposed same-sex marriage, 17% were in support, and the rest didn't know or refused to answer.
