Die werden uitgereikt aan mensen die zich vergrepen hadden. Maar ook bij de nazi’s genoeg homo’s. Of wil je zeggen dat iedere homo meteen een kindermolesteerder is? Nee toch!

Rohm goering etc waren openlijk homo. Heel Duitsland wist dat. Bovendien zei ik dat hitler weinig problemen met homo’s had. De top van de SA was grotendeels homo en met die organisatie heeft hij jarenlang samengewerkt om de macht te grijpen. Hitler was toleranter voor homo’s dan het gemiddelde van zijn tijd

Hij lakte zijn nagels, trok nogal eens een jurk aan en had onnatuurlijk veel interesse in jongetjes van de HJ. Hij had ook een vrouw en een dochter dus misschien was hij wel bi.

The only possible clues which indicted that Göring might be transvestite are, sorted from most relevant to least relevant:

Hermann Göring's biography written by David Irving, Goring: A Biography, in which he confirms Göring was a transvestite:

In page 193 you find,

Nobody was celebrated with greater enthusiasm than Göring. “Göring,” Herbert Backe, the level-headed deputy to the minister of agriculture, told his wife after touring eastern Germany with the general in mid-May, “arrived at Breslau wearing a white air-force uniform. The citizenry went wild.” The cheers gave Göring the feeling of immortality: He was Germany - he was the law. The increasingly odd, sometimes even effeminate garments (many of them designed for him by Carin) were a part of his public image. He was at heart almost a transvestite, certainly an exhibitionist. “Herbert,” Frau Backe wrote in her diary, “says that out in the Schorf Heath [around Carinhall] he always has a spear with him.”(1)

The problem: Irving's reputation as a historian has been discredited(2) after he brought an unsuccessful libel case against the American historian Deborah Lipstadt and Penguin Books. The English court found that Irving was an active Holocaust denier, antisemite, and racist, who

associates with right-wing extremists who promote neo-Nazism. (3)

and he had,

for his own ideological reasons persistently and deliberately misrepresented and manipulated historical evidence. (3)(4)

Irving was also sentenced also to three years of imprisonment in jail in accordance with the law prohibiting National Socialist activities.(5)

The Biographical Encyclopedia of German Homosexuals (in Germany, Biographisches Lexikon zur Geschichte von Freundesliebe und mannmännlicher Sexualität im deutschen Sprachraum) had no entry on Hermann Göring, but mentioned that Göring had a violet nightshirt.(6)

The 1988 television film, The Man Who Lived at the Ritz, based on A.E. Hotchner's novel featured Joss Ackland as a transvestite Hermann Göring; but it doesn't prove anything also.(7)
