Acrdg to Erich Ebermeier, a lawyer and wrer who viewed Hler's ary fil years later: 'Dpe his bravery towards the enemy, bee of his homosexual activy he lost out on a promotn to non-missned officer.

Machtan says that Hler was particularly drawn to Rudolf Hs, his puty, who was known party circl as 'black Emma' and wh whom he had spent months Landsberg, then, did the Nazis persecute homosexuals, sendg hundreds of thoands of them to their aths labour mps and the gas chambers?

In 2017, Germany’s Cabet approved a bill that would expunge the nvictns of tens of thoands of German men for “homosexual acts” unr that untry’s anti-gay law known as “Paragraph 175. Partly drivg this new era of tolerance were the doctors and scientists who started lookg at homosexualy and “transvtism” (a word of that era that enpassed transgenr people) as a natural characteristic wh which some were born, and not a “rangement.

ERNST RöHM, THE HIGHT-RANKG GAY NAZI

Memorial "to the gay and lbian victims of Natnal Socialism" Cologne: The scriptn on the left si of the monument (to the viewer's right om the angle picted) reads "Totgchlagen – Totgchwiegen" ("Stck Dead – Hhed Up"). [1] It is unclear how many of the 5, 000 to 15, 000 eventually perished the mps, but leadg scholar Rüdiger Ltmann believ that the ath rate of homosexuals ncentratn mps may have been as high as 60%.

After the war, the treatment of homosexuals ncentratn mps went unacknowledged by most untri, and some men were even re-arrted and imprisoned based on evince found durg the Nazi years. In late Febary 1933, as the moratg fluence of Ernst Röhm weakened, the Nazi Party lnched s purge of homosexual (gay, lbian, and bisexual; then known as homophile) clubs Berl, outlawed sex publitns, and banned anized gay groups.

GAY MEN UNR THE NAZI REGIME

Durg the Night of the Long Kniv 1934, a purge of those whom Hler emed threats to his power took place, he had Röhm murred and ed Röhm's homosexualy as a jtifitn to supprs outrage wh the ranks of the SA. Such "anti-homosexual" laws were wispread throughout the wtern world until the 1960s and 1970s, so many gay men did not feel safe to e forward wh their stori until the 1970s when many so-lled "sodomy laws" were repealed. [12] Reparatns and state pensns available to other groups were refed to gay men, who were still classified as crimals — the 1935 versn of Paragraph 175 remaed force Wt Germany until 1969 when the Bunstag voted to return to the pre-1935 versn.

It was not until the 1970s and 1980s that there was some mastream exploratn of the theme, wh Holot survivors wrg their memoirs, plays such as Bent, and more historil rearch and documentari beg published about the Nazis' homophobia and their stctn of the German gay-rights movement. 5 ln Jews, Roma, Pol, Rsians and prisoners of var other natnali, and homosexuals, were murred, is not only a major ocsn for European cizens to remember and nmn the enormo horror and tragedy of the Holot, but also for addrsg the disturbg rise anti-Semism, and pecially anti-Semic cints, Europe, and for learng anew the wir lsons about the dangers of victimisg people on the basis of race, ethnic orig, relign, social classifitn, polics or sexual orientatn.... Arisg om the domant disurse of the Jewish sufferg durg the years of Nazi domatn, and buildg on the divergence of differential victimhoods brought to light by studi of the Roma and the mentally ill, who suffered massively unr the genics programs of the Third Reich, the ia of a “Gay Holot” was first explored the early 1970s.

GAY MEN UNR THE NAZI REGIME - PHOTOGRAPHS

The bate on the “Gay Holot” is therefore a highly load bate which would rult an ternatnal acknowledgement of state sponsored homophobia as a precursor to genoci should the proponents of the “Gay Holot” succeed. [18] It is, however, what Michel-Rolph Trouillot terms “an age when llective apologi are beg creasgly mon”[19] as well as a time when the tablished Holot disurse has settled and legimized claims of the Jewish, Roma and mentally ill victims of Nazi persecutn so would seem an appropriate time to at least brg attentn to the bate of the Gay Holot, even if the issue is not to be settled.

A lack of rearch means that there is relatively ltle data on the dispersn of gay men throughout the mps however Hez Heger suggts his book The Men wh the Pk Triangle that they were subjected to harsher labor than smaller targeted groups, such as the polil prisoners, and furthermore suffered a much higher mortaly rate.

WHY THE MYTH OF THE “GAY NAZI” IS BACK CIRCULATN

The notn of exclivy however is challenged by the existence of siar forc workg agast different social and ethnic groups such as homosexuals and the Roma, which rulted the victimizatn and systematic stctn of homosexual liv and liftyl, as well as those of the Roma.

”[23] While the foc of the early revisns was not necsarily to terme the Nazi policy on homosexuals as genocidal, they began a current towards legimizg the victimizatn of homosexuals unr the regime, a topic that had not been addrsed until the 1970s. [23] Central to the studi was the notn that statistilly speakg, homosexuals suffered greater loss than many of the smaller mori unr Nazi persecutn such as the Jehovah’s Wns and wh the mps experienced harsher treatments and ostracizatn as well as executn at the hands of firg squads and the gas chambers. The early revisnist disurs were joed by a popular movement of appropriatn, which voked the global memory of the Holot to shed light on social dispari for homosexuals wh the Uned Stat.

“The slowns of ernment rponse at feral and lol levels of ernment, the pcy of funds for rearch and treatment, particularly the early days of the epimic stems, Kramer argued, om ep-seated homophobic impuls and nstuted ‘tentnal genoci’. [25] The nservative rponse yield a new disurse workg agast the “Gay Holot” amia which emphasized the gay and lbian revisnism as a victimist disurse which sought sympathy and regnn as a pragmatic means of garnerg special stat and civil rights outsi those of the moral majory.
