Best Answer

Homosexuals were not "a problem in the Holocaust." However, homosexual people were categorized as misfits, worthy of extinction by Adolf Hitler. They were forced to wear pink triangles to identify them and were brutally executed, along with the Jewish and other groups Hitler found to taint his vision of a pure blood Caucasian (white) utopian society.
