@locarnta Yeah the SA was very gay. One of the reasons people like Himmler hated it. The nazis were at the end of the day anti-homo, and there were more pro-homo views early on. The pro-homo views being strongest in the SA (many being homosexuals themself). May also be worth noting that homosexuality was commonplace in the wandervogel (pre-nazi German nationalist youth groups).

The anti-homo view were motivated by people like Himmler and Rosenberg. The latter Röhm called a "clownish moral athlete" writing to the gay völkisch writer Karl-Günter Heimsoth about laws against homosexuality.

And the magazine talked about in there Der Eigene was a gay anarchist magazine, which is why it was later destroyed by the nazis. But it did publish articles by nazis like Heimsoth's Freundesliebe oder Homosexualität. And held similar view on homosexuality and even on the jews.

And if you want more gay figures in German nationalism you have frederick the great himself.

@SuzyCreamcheese Yeah, and iirc the Röhm purge happened because the SA was getting "scary." A lot of the SA dealings are best summed up as "there's no heterosexual explanation for that."
