When did homosexuality in America start?

Answer 1

Homosexuality didn't "start" in America, any more than left handed people "started" at any particular time. They were and are just part of the population in general, whether they make it known to others or not.

Still, you can say that homosexuality was around pretty much as soon as people began traveling to and settling in the Americas, meaning North, Central and South America. That means gay people were here thousands of years ago.

And earlier than that, homosexuality would have been in the Americas long before any humans showed up, back when it was called Pangaea, since there are homosexual animals too. So even as far back as when dinosaurs roamed - and before that, too - there would have been homosexualilty in "America".

Answer 2

Since it is as old as mankind, there must have been homosexuality amongst native americans before even te Vikings arrived. State laws against homosexuality date from as early as 1641, so it was by then apparently enough of a common occurrence to be dealt with by law.
