Of course. But OP didn’t ask for a non-homophobic Caribbean. He asked for less homophobic one.I am pretty sure that homophobia was strong in Caribbean already long time before 1980's.
Aside from everything else, HIV reached the United States via Haiti, not vice versa.Sex tourists don’t bring AIDS to Haiti.
That’s a pretty common belief, but it isn’t a consensus yet. It’s disputed by Dr. Paul Farmer and others.Aside from everything else, HIV reached the United States via Haiti, not vice versa.
In fact, it's thought to have reached Haiti directly via the DRC as early as the late 1960s.
Probably more Jewish immigration to the Caribbean.

Maybe.
There is a religious aspect to it as well. India is still using sodomy law from 1864, which were still on the books when they gained independence.
What doing Jews have with homosexuality? With my knowledge Judaism is not any more tolerant towards homosexuality than Christianity.
And the fact that India had the werewithal to declare itself a republic and remove the Union Jack from its flag, should demonstrate that they weren't hindered by any post-colonial neuroses about having to continue doing things the British way.
True, but they are still using the Indian Penal Code which was set up in the 1860's. Caribbean countries are, in the main, running the same laws that where established when they became colonies.
