Another story that I heard, albe much later, about the lol attu towards beg (allegedly) gay, was that some guy my dad and uncle knew was beaten up for wearg a yellow sweater, taken to be a sign of gayns, durg the ual night stroll through Nikšić’s ma street some time the 1970s or 1980s.

Acrdg to my mom`s stori, my great-grandmother had a gay iend (married to a much olr lady for pannship, workg as salman a fashn store, if I remember rrectly) who paid her hoe-viss, albe my great-grandfather, a former ary man om Lika, liked to leave the flat durg those viss after makg them ffee. There have been many tly fascatg rourc on the topic, the first beg Među Nama, a llectn of mostly scholarly says on gay and lbian experienc and history the regn, as well as “Kata Niba i komentari”, a tly unique book by Ivan Janković, an arnt advote for crimalisatn of same sex relatnships Serbia, which tell the story of var vic mid 19th century Belgra.

Given that sexualy, the end, is an extremely private and personal thg, anecdot, which very much pend on specific faial, class and other cultural parameters, should probably not be ed for extrapolatn for overall social trends pecially over large geographi and perds of time: social and private experience, as well as self-perceptn as a homosexual (although one wonrs if he himself self-intified that way) like my distant relative a cy Montenegro was a very different experience to that of my great-grandmother`s iend Belgra, let alone beg part of the current, much more liberated, LGBT scene eher place. Eve Lev`s imprsive study, Sex and Society the World of Orthodox Slavs 900-1700, as well as Stanoje Bojan`s say Među Nama, show how the church and secular attus changed towards homosexual practic and how they were treated the var, very nvoluted, texts however a few thgs seem to stand apart as beg relatively nstant the Medieval Orthodox Christian: homosexualy was general seen as jt another exprsn of lt om which Christians should rea, and the attractn self to var objects of sire was ls problematised the East, as much as the fact that one cis to engage a sful act of var severy.

Ltful acts, cludg homosexual on, were put on a sle of their naturalns and gravy wh acts like masturbatn (which often clud non-perative same-sex activi) seen as ls grievo, and thgs like ct, perative same-sex acts, adultery and pulatn wh animals see as much worse.

The Ancient Greek distctn gravy of a homosexual perative act pendg on whether one is perated (which Ancient Greece led to social ostracism) or whether one perat (which was not seen as disgraceful) was mataed secular practic (people who were, willgly or not perated uld not jo clergy acrdg to Lev), while the relative difference sfulns was bated (some even saw that willgns to be both an active and a passive participant as the worst optn).

Libertism and pecially tolerance of homosexual acts, was such a big part of anti-Bogo propaganda, that the Brish term for a homosexual perative act – buggery – actually om “Bulgar” via French, as they associated Bogos wh Bulgaria. Ined, then that would be the first stance of seeg (tolerance of) homosexualy as a pernic feature of one`s polil fo somethg that beme mon when Serbs and other Balkan natns fell unr the Ottoman le 15th century.

Still, the ocsnal sexual vlence agast man as well a generally more sexually permissive attu of the Ottoman ele, ma tolerance of homosexualy a polil, inty issue as Serbia was beg an pennt state. (Vojvoda ma legal 1978), however there were relatively few stanc when anyone was changed for homosexual behavur, but the arrts did happen, pecially durg the first Yugoslavia, when the Belgar police found and arrted owners of what seemed to be a transvte homosexual sex club.

Another famo example of the polil e of allegatns of homosexualy was the se of Pera Todorović, a populist journalist, who was smeared by his liberal (more elist) opponents as a homosexual.

Predrag Marković, who did rearch the topic, alleg that Mihajlo Petrović Alas – Serbian mathematician and world traveller, who reached both Arctic and the Antarcti, had homosexual proclivi. The treatment of homosexuals unr the Nazi occupatn of Serbia (1941-1944) is yet to be rearched, however while the ntemporary lore tri to pat the Yugoslav Communists and Partisans as more LGBT iendly, that was not necsarily the se. Milovan Đilas, one of the chief ilogu of the Yugoslav Communists before his fall om grace, scrib a very strange suatn his memoir about WWII, which Rifat Burdžević, a proment Sandžak partizan, bat whether to execute a loyal partizan fighter who was found out to be engaged homosexual acts.

The alleged homosexual pleas for his life explag that he was raped as a boy by a former Ottoman fdal lord, and succeeds to persua Burdžević to spare him, however Đilas offers a very stern nmnatn of the patrizan`s vice: “I did not know the party practice eher, nor was anythg about such issu wrten by Marx and Len. This stance, however, was not shared by all members of the Party, even though homosexualy was illegal Yugoslavia (until 1974 Slovenia, 1977 Croatia and Montenegro, 1994 Serbia, 1997 Northern Macedonia, and 1998 Bosnia and Herzea).

Proment Croatian Communists and wrers, Vladimir Nazor and Ivan Goran Kovačić were a uple, while Dragoslav Srejović, a famo Serbian archaeologist who disvered Lepenski Vir was also open about his sexualy, as was Jovan Ćirilov, a tour force of Belgra cultural life, who proudly and loudly mpaigned for homosexualy to be crimalised and accepted the wir society. From the vlent failure of the 2001 Gay Pri event to Ana Brnabić — the untry’s current prime mister and first openly gay senr official — LGBT rights Serbia have e a long way over the past two s. And yet, spe this posive change legal amework and tolerance, the gay lived experienc, gay them and subjects, and queer art are still very much relegated to the margs Serbian and, if tth be told, regnal society.
