Mandatory Military Service
When a military needs people to fight in a war, but there aren't enough volunteers, sometimes they'll begin conscription, which is a law that says if you are able to fight, you have to fight. Also called the draft, conscription legally requires people to join the army, with penalties if they don't. I think you need to be straight to join the army so if you were gay you would have to hide it. -
Revision of paragraph 175
This law was already an existing law but it was revised by the German government. This law had gay men persecuted because the were seen as corrupting “ german Values” because they where not adding to the population, But since lesbians could still have biological children they were usually not targeted. This is not fair because they were killed because they could not add to the population. -
