they were made to wear a pink badge, much like the Jews had to wear a gold star. it wasn't just gays and Jews who were catagorised though, almost everyone was catagorised(except the Germans, nazi followers, and anyone who agreed with Hitler basically) but i can't remember the other catagories

Yes led. One historian who has made this his specialty (Richard Plant) estimates somewhere between 50,000 and 63,000 gay men were killed in the concentration camps. To make matters worse, when the camps were liberated at the end of the war, Allied military authorities determined that homosexuals who had been imprisoned for homosexual acts had not completed their sentences, and these survivors of the Nazi concentration camps were returned to civilian prison to compete their sentences.
Hitler wanted the inferior, in his eyes the Jews, Gypsies, handicapped, gay people, dead. That is practically why he started the concentration camps.
No many other sorts of people were sent to concentration camps such as gay people, coloured people, the disabled and mentally ill, political activists and gypsies.
You are crazy he is not gay he was a great fantastic merchant. How rude. He made this land great. You must obey!

In Nazi Germany homosexuals were forced to wear a an upside down pink triangle on their clothes, just as the Jews were forced to wear a Star of David. Today the people of the gay community have adopted the pink triangle as a symbol of gay pride by inverting the old Nazi triangle and turning it right-side up. There's also the Greek Letter, Lamda, sometimes worn by lesbians. There's also the rainbow flag.
The previous answer by Cameron Davies is not entirely true. There were likely many gay Nazis, who remained closeted due to the political climate. While there were no openly gay nazis, it is within the realm of possibility that 3-8% of nazis were gay.
It shouldn't be in the geometry section but...The pink triangle is a symbol for the homosexuals that were oppressed, mainly starting in the Holocaust. It carried on through the ages though.A symbol of gay pride. Reclaimed from the right-side up pink triangles used in Nazi concentration camps to designate gay prisoners.It's a sign for sexual equalityIt was a Nazi Concentration Camp badge for anyone considered a sexual deviant, including homosexuals, zoophiles, pedophiles, and rapists. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_concentration_camp_badges
No. In fact, there is no clothing that "only gay guys wear."
There isn't a certain color that all gay people wear.
Nazis are not gay; in fact, the Nazis murdered tens of thousands of gay people in concentration and death camps.
No. They are not gay girls wear them all the time (in winter) but guys can still wear them.
If you are a woman or man and wear your hair to the left you are indeed gay.
There wasn't one, they were not forced to wear a symbol like the Jews were forced to wear the Star of David. However, once they were in the concentration camp system they were forced to wear a badge, like all inmates were to show what crime they were gulity of, this was a pink triangle.
Unless they choose to wear them elsewhere they still wear then on there ring finger of the left hand.
Hitler made gay men wear a pink triangle in Nazi Germany. So the pink triangle (pointing downwards) has long been a strong color and symbol for gays. In more recent years gays have adopted the rainbow flag and colors as a symbol of freedom. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet are the colors.
