It wasn't until society became familiar with Freud and his theories about everything being sexually oriented that men stopped showing physical closeness in photographs. Men had been comfortable with each other till Freud made them self conscious.
Great pics. My favorites 3:45 so cute 5:01 Handsome 5:38 Guy on the right side ; his smirk says it all 10:56 Right side ,looks like Kevin Costner 12:45 All Arms 16:05 Bold 16:26 Cute sign 18:12 Feeling nice
They should have played I want to break free by Freddie mercury ,it's sad men in those times especially at war had to hide their sexuality of been gay ,comparing to today it's accepted ,rest in peaceful those guys shown in this picture god bless you amen,💖💕🌸🌹🌈☀
Men weren't afraid to put their arm around another Dudes shoulder in that "Buddy"way....especially in the Service. But its NEVER been cool to cross your legs and hold each others hands. Youre welcome: A Really Gay Dude. 😀
They have to be, so sad otherwise, if men could love eachother, but doesn't want to play which each other's dick/cock, there has to be sex, but then there is no love they think, but is only love!!!!!!!!!!
they're not necessarily. especially the SS boys. soft poses were customary back then especially to fit into the camera lens. also it was so unthinkable no one thought of it.
16:07 is pretty wild for the time. Adult men did not kiss, and I am pretty sure they weren't English brothers. No one was pointing out or looking aghast. It unmistakable for what that is, just not sure that "that" is.
I doubt that most of the men pictured were gay. This is how photos between close friends and/or family were done “back in the day”. Not that there’s anything wrong with it.
You have a point in that men were allowed to be more openly affectionate with each other earlier in the 20th century. However, we simply don't know the nature of these guys' relationships. I'm sure some were straight guys who were good friends, and some were guys who were in a deeper kind of relationship, what we would call "gay" nowadays.
Most countries have no problem with men holding hands or putting an arm around each other. It’s a gesture of friendship nothing gay about it. It’s just America that is so uptight about physical affection to the point they’re willing to beat the crap out of someone for being perceived gay.
Ok, the ones wearing pinky rings are a dead giveaway for being homosexual. It's a code ring for gay. There are photographs displaying far more than friendship. Like when on the knee of his friend. What do friends do when too much affection is too much? Arm over shoulder for each. Could be friends, could mean more. 8% of male sheep are gay. 2 papers that I know of. All sexualities I think according to Kingsley runs at about 35%? Most of the Northern Europeans are stiff upper lip for a long time; including in Germany, including Britain and North America, with physical affection between same sex. Southerners are a bit different. Most of these here are white people; I think it's more likely in the undecided photos, that they are gay or bi?
When the photos are good enough, you can see a pinky ring often. A dead giveaway. The way they hold in many are relationship love holds. Of course affection is affection, but there is also the 'you're the everything for me' hold and looks. Some look like close friends. There could be something written on the back? A question is; even if affection were acceptable greatly, would friends hold each other to that intimate extent- with that level of completeness? Compare affectionate people with countries like Indonesia and other Asian countries where holding hands can be commonplace amongst young men, is that even like a lot of these?
It's hard to hear, it could be cimbalom but I think not. It sounds a bit more like an iranian Santur, or maybe an American hammered dulcimer, along with piano and violin.
Oui c'est certain que cela devait être difficile . Néanmoins ces couples sont tous empreints d'une forme d'élégance et de douceur .Or aujourd'hui tout est beaucoup plus laid et les relations n'ont plus aucune valeur.Je pense que j'aurais préférer vivre à leur époque .
Actually it was the beginning of the twentieth century that it was dangerous to be gay . For most of the 19th century it was just chuckled about. The poet Walt Whitman was openly gay , he liked longshoremen and sailors.
The picture that struck me most was the German soldiers. Especially thinking of how the nazis persecuted gays. Those guys were living a dangerous game.
Many Nazi officers were homosexual or had sex with men. They often used concentration camp prisoners at their disposal as seen in the movie "Playing For Time" and others.
I think it would be a mistake to conclude that most of these guys were gay. 100 years ago, or more, affection between two heterosexual men was very common. Also, it was very common for two men to sleep in the same bed, heterosexual men.
#1 this is tedious. #2 these men are not gay! Most of them are related, probably brothers. Family features are unmistakable! This was traditional "posing" in early photography.
From old straight photos I've seen, affectionate poses were NOT definitely seen. Keep in mind, northern countries like in Europe, are not affectionate. Southern ones have greater openness. Same goes for North American lands. The pinky ring is a dead giveaway for homosexual code.
Muchas de las fotos no son de gays, se trataba de un fenómeno de admiración hacia los amigos, hay un reportaje sobre esto.. chale!! No sé porque todo lo quieren hacer gay no mamen
What about heterosexuals who are quilty of sex crimes as harassment, rape, trafficking in woman, sex slavery, abortion, child abuse, prostitution, incest ect?
@@heinmolenaar6750 both commit sex crimes. But, you are comparing Apple and oranges. The homosexual community wants all deviant sexual acts legal including child perversions.
@@pdailey1950 no, that's not true. Child perversions has nothing to do with homosexuality. There is heterosexual phedofily and there is homosexual phedofily. Heterosexual phedofily is far in the majority. Because there are far more heterosexuals than homosexuals. And what about child perversions in the roman catholic church? Our holy mother church turned out to be a lake of destruction.
@@pdailey1950 why not? What's wrong with draq queens? Being brainwashed by religious authority in schools is a much greater perversion. They destroy the mind of the children with their neurotic religious beliefs.

A quei tempi era difficile per le persone gay . Era illegale ovunque. Oggi sembra quasi cambiato tutto. Grazie a dio
beautiful😍 🖖
Cannot help but wonder what became of some of these men and their love for one another.
It’s makes me happy that even for a moment these men could openly love each other
Love is love and all love is still ❤️
True, whether sexual or not.
What a beautiful photos ! What a courageus persons ! Being gay and exposing this at that time !
It wasn't until society became familiar with Freud and his theories about everything being sexually oriented that men stopped showing physical closeness in photographs.

Oh interesting. I remember he did now. All but discounted?
Many are just about posing and male bonding of a time and age, when still photography was still new and fascinating.
Mmm, but many show greater closeness and that people still hid their sexuality. You can see the pinky ring in quite a few.
Great pics. My favorites

How do you know these people are gay? Men were not afraid to be close buddies back in the day as they are today.

My question too…????
You just know
@@erlineleady5584 Meaning, you can see they play with eachothers dicks/cocks!

Какие лица классные...)What cool faces ...)
Lovely
By the way: The two soldiers in minute 0:30 are members of the SS.
It’s an odd contrast isn’t it
Eran muy jóvenes y por la guerra alejados de sus familia, amigos y seres queridos, buscaban llenar la necesidad afectiva, una necesidad humana.

Did you know them ?
@@njkauto2394 no, but is a human necesity

@@Mcfreddo My dad wore a pinky ring and he was definitely not gay.
@@manxkin that can happen. Doesn't discount code language and symbols.
Is he bi? It's not something one would know tho off the bat.
You weren't there. How can you be so sure, based on what photos portray? So what if they were, anyway?

great
I wonder, how did the guys from the 19th century meet each other? It was a very dangerous time to be gay.
Oui c'est certain que cela devait être difficile . Néanmoins ces couples sont tous empreints d'une forme d'élégance et de douceur .Or aujourd'hui tout est beaucoup plus laid et les relations n'ont plus aucune valeur.Je pense que j'aurais préférer vivre à leur époque .
@@eberlinpascal2837 It seems less of a lifestyle then and more intimate connection whether sexual in nature or not.

What they don't show you is most were miserable because gay was against the law they were harassed all the time or killed
The overlay is too long, the merged pictures are quite disconcerting.
really great pictures, music is completely awful. You need Al Bowly "midnight and the stars are you"
#1 this is tedious.
#2 these men are not gay!
Most of them are related, probably brothers. Family features are unmistakable!
This was traditional "posing" in early photography.
Didn't realise you knew them all. You certainly got around you old devil
A lot of presuming by outsiders 😜
You are right. Most of these guys in this video are straight.
From old straight photos I've seen, affectionate poses were NOT definitely seen. Keep in mind, northern countries like in Europe, are not affectionate. Southern ones have greater openness. Same goes for North American lands.
The pinky ring is a dead giveaway for homosexual code.
Music fits the pictures, kind of creepy....
No, it's your comment that is 😂
Ich bin Schwul, aber ich verachte euch!
Why? Warum?
I think you should remove the photograph of the Nazis. It’s the second photo.
Muchas de las fotos no son de gays, se trataba de un fenómeno de admiración hacia los amigos, hay un reportaje sobre esto.. chale!! No sé porque todo lo quieren hacer gay no mamen
Who's they?
The music is paralyzing sad.
At least the people in the pictures aren't whether gay or not. They showed their affection or closeness.
Lo qué uno sea !!! Pero sin hacer él ridículo Ellis Ellas Ellos fachosos y feos nooooooo jjjjjjjjo
