@Muflie 2 года назад

About the nazis: We also can't forget that Ernst Röhm, the leader of the nazi's paramilitary SA, was also openly gay. Hitler simply tolerated it at first, but he ordered his death after being told that Röhm was trying to molest children (which probably wasn't true). Röhm was then executed in his prison cell by two SS men on the first of July 1934 after he had been captured during the Röhm Putsch which began a day earlier.

@zenpie5093 2 года назад

And after his death Hitler really began pushing the anti gay laws. At first it seemed like gay people were „safe“ (they weren’t really before but they haven’t been in a focus) but this soon changed.

@tomasroma2333 2 года назад

That's not true. The excuse Hitler gave for killing Röhm was because he was led into thinking Röhm was going to overthrow him. Literally nothing to do with molesting children.

My parents were born the year of the Stonewall Riots. The Netherlands legalized gay marriage 2 days after I was born. The US legalized gay marriage my freshman year of high school. Just to give a bit of a time reference. This is very, very recent shit. And yet progress has inched forward extremely slowly.

@franksg2635 2 года назад

This video assumes that each example represents the whole of humanity at that date. Which is incorrect. Pro-LGBT and Anti-LGBT ideas were prevalent throughout the world in different cultures at almost all dates mentioned. This is incredibly Western focused when it comes to 1000 AD dates + Edit: The Stonewall Riots are not the most important day for LGBTQ+. There is an argument it is the most important for Western LGBTQ+ but to argue that it defined LGBT history is naïve and incorrect. Secondly, to compare it to pearl harbour or 9/11 is pretty bold. Another edit: To define Raegan as one of the worst presidents is only valuable on the view of LGBT and not other important issues.

"In honour of the United Kingdom's LGBTQ History Month" *Happy British noises*

@lesterabastillas9291 2 года назад

i lived in the UAE for 7 years, it was confusing, anyone can be gay, but you dont talk about, because if you do; you get jailed or worse, deported, or even worse: executed. So for a long time i didnt know that "gay" existed, i knew men can like men but i didnt understand, but now im in the UK where i see flags everywhere and it is just euphoric.

I don't know man, i'm not denying what you said but that LGBT acceptance graph showing "max acceptance" just beacause some gay couple were recorded in some paintings doesn't seem accurate, i don't think that's enough proof to say 100% of people accepted the LGBT community, or any porcentage at all, they are just drawings.

7:16 I do wonder about the "Trajan as first gay emperor" thing, given that the Ancient Greeks assumed men could be attracted to anyone. Though that would make people like Alexander the Great, who had a documented eunuch lover, two wives, and probably-longterm-male-partner Hephaestion bisexual by our definitions, so maybe that's the distinction? Though there was that Chinese emperor who gave rise to the term "cut sleeve" for gay people when he cut off the sleeve of his robe to avoid waking up his boyfriend, and people in the court apparently thought that was super cute and started imitating him!

I just want to add about the Nazi time that 1. Lesbians could get send to concentration camps, wearing a black triangle and marked as antisocial. 2. Even after the Nazi regime in Germany the law that made homosexual acts illegal wasn’t lifted. So people who were sent into jail by the Nazis still had to do their time even after Germany was in the hands of the Allies/ had their new democracy. The law remained up until 1994! (It had existed before too, but the Nazis added some parts and pushed actually imprisoning people for it)

@TheTabascodragon 2 года назад

Random bi guy here. While the super ancient examples like the cave paintings and such are very significant and interesting because they confirm LGBT people existed back then, it's a bit of a stretch to draw the conclusion that the whole culture was heavily accepting of them. That's like historians and archeologists of the future finding evidence of LGBT people existing in our time period and assuming that everyone in our time period was heavily accepting too. I imagine it was probably nuanced and complicated back then just like nowadays. We'll probably never know definitively though, it is called prehistory for a reason after all. Otherwise, a well made and informative video.

Japan had male homosexuality (nannshoku) going since the yayoi first arrived, so much that it’s a punchline in historic drama. It’s associated with masculinity and warrior culture, so it’s quite different to the west. There’s sex, but no marriage. More so an entertainment partnership rather than modern homosexuality. Because of that association, during the early imperial years, nannshoku ran rampant in the military branches. As part of modernisation, Meiji government discouraged acts of homosexuality, but, since nannshoku is associated with masculinity, it’s a bit weird. Nannshoku was fully banned when people started hunting down boys for pleasure after the Russo-Japanese war, big oof there. In historical drama, or just random shows even, nannshoku influences can still be seen but often as punchlines rather than anything serious. Post-war Yakuza group members can sometimes have a non-binary motif, not sure about actual orientation. BL (boys love) content is currently around, very popular but only with female readership. Not so much anything girls love.

@jakubdojcar3117 2 года назад

As history student I can say that facts in video are relatable and can be considered as important moments. BUT. But I just have to say, that one thing in this video was a massive bullshit. That dumb graph. It's just so flawed. It makes no sense. 1. You can't translate one or two specific facts into general graph as proof of maximal acceptance (according to graph). In that case every cave painting of heterosexual relationship woud mean exact opposite. Or it would mean that if I and my brother like some new movie, everybody in the world like that movie too. 2. Graph is flawed in representing value of facts. Why legal marriage in ancient Rome is shown as maximal acceptance, while legal marriage in present day is shown as minimal acceptance. 3. That type of graph is acumulative, which is good for things like bank account, but not for part of social system, that isn't exact. sociology at all isn't exact science = you can't translate sociology into pure numbers and equations.

I'm not saying Jews weren't treated poorly, please understand me. I'm saying - yes, of course Jews were treated terrible. But gay men were discriminated against by BOTH Nazis and Jewish prisoners in concentration camps. Then on the Allies side of the war, gay men were treated terribly there too. So while sure, the Jews had it bad - at least some people were on their side. For gay men, no one was on their side, not even the Jews.
