Guys with Guys and Gals with Gals





































These vintage photos represent just a small fragment of our LGBT history; unfortunately so much of it has purposely been destroyed. Since the men in these photos are unknown, it's pretty much impossible to tell if they were a gay couple or just "good friends." Most photographs of gay couples were eventually destroyed by horrified family members. For every photo that I may have mistakenly identified as gay, thousands more were burned or torn into pieces to keep a family secret.

    This site gives an amazing view of LGBT life in the past, thanks for the hard work. I have two questions the first is probably unanswerable. 1 Who was the forth man from the left (dark suit) in the title picture? He just looks so familiar. 2 Can you recommend any sites detailing personal stories from WW2?

    Sorry, but it's very rare to find any of these photos labeled, so I don't know his name. As for gay WWII stories, here's a link to a great article from Historyextra.com: http://www.historyextra.com/feature/same-side-homosexuals-during-second-world-war
