Original Note:
Germany had anti-homosexuality laws known as Paragraph 175 since 1871 which covered both the German Empire and Weimar Republic eras well before WWII. While there was debate over the subject, they were typical of Europe at the time and were not at the center as suggested. https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/paragraph-175-and-the-nazi-campaign-against-homosexuality
