Sce the parameters may not ci wh each other and n be manifted differently at var stag of life, an unambiguo divisn of dividuals to hetero-, homo- and bisexual groups, as well as their number, is very problematic. Although same-sex sexual activy between nsentg adults private was crimalized 1993, homosexualy is disapproved of by most Rsians, and same-sex upl and hoeholds head by same-sex upl are eligible for the legal protectns available to oppose-sex upl.
Before Hler me to power Germany, there was a stggle between the untry’s learship and the gay muny, which advoted the aboln of crimal punishment for people of ‘unnatural’ sexual orientatn. An important fact to scribe rearch say on gay rights is that Europe, the 1970s, the activists adopted the official symbol of LGBTQ, the rabow, as well as veloped a ncept wh basic polil requirements, namely the legalizatn of same-sex relatnships and the right to marry.

Another theoretil perspective more suable for an anti gay rights say is based on the cultural analysis of sexualy proposed by the French philosopher Michel Fouult his work Еhe History of Sexualy. Th, some ancient classil cy-stat of Greece, a certa type of homosexual relatnship (between an adult man and adolcent) was ialized as a social practice no ls important than the tradnal marriage between a man and a woman.
Morn unrstandg of homosexualy as a particular sexual orientatn was explaed by Fouult not as a scientific tth but only as a product of an epoch and a picture of the world characteristic of this epoch. At the begng of the XX century, the fundamental directn of scientific views on homosexualy was set by the works of Sigmund Frd who believed that a person is bisexual by nature and that heterosexual preferenc are formed early childhood while children wh some psychologil malfunctns bee homosexuals. At the same time, Frd was cled to treat homosexualy very tolerantly and believed that therapy should be aimed not at changg sexual orientatn but at rrectg the nsequent mental disfort and acceptance of their own personaly by the patient.

As many other studi tryg to distguish the born quali and the acquired characteristics, important material for rearch was obtaed om relativ of homosexuals and, particular, intil tws. Throughout the century, the urse of the general velopment of liberal valu, the nceptualizatn of homosexual attractn as a personal characteristic (most likely ngenal) that do not require eher medil or legal terventn was popularized.
