Seminar paper from the year 2017 in the subject History of Germany - National Socialism, World War II, grade: 2,3, University of Tubingen, language: English, abstract: In the Weimar Republic homosexuals achieved more and more acceptance. The German capital Berlin could, for example, be regarded as a liberal city and a meeting point for many lesbians and gays. Nightclubs, bars, and even travesty clubs were open and solely reserved for homosexuals. They seemed to have their own parallel society, which was somehow tolerated. Germany became more and more tolerant and legal equality of hetero- and homosexuals would have been the next logical step. However, things came different when the NSDAP party won the election in 1933. The ideological government made homosexuality a punishable offence again, leading to a bitter setback for any upcoming gay movement. After the slow improvement of social and legal conditions, which began to take scientific findings into account, all the achievements were destroyed. But why did Nazi Germany consider homosexuality a crime again and how did the lives of LGBTs change to the worse?
