At the end of WWII, after the liberation of the Nazi concentration camps, countless homosexuals remained prisoners
because Paragraph 175 remained law in West Germany. Paragraph 175, a clause in German law prohibiting homosexual
relations, was revised by Hitler in 1935 to include kissing, embracing, and gay fantasies as well as sexual acts.
Convicted offenders -- an estimated 25,000 just from 1937 to 1939 -- were sent to prison and then later to concentration
camps. Their sentence was to be sterilized, and this was most often accomplished by castration. In 1942 Hitler's
punishment for homosexuality was extended to death. Paragragh 175 was the only Nazi law to stay in effect in Germany
after World World II. It was repealed 1969. [Source: 'The Pink Triangle' by Richard Plant]
