Nazi history certainly a strange and convoluted and contradictory. Fascinating for that reason. Twisted ideology. Maybe supporting the notion that all homophobia is a reaction to supressed internal homosexuality? I've never believed that, but a case could be made.
I searched for books about Templars and I accidentally found a book about "men cirkles" (Männerbunde) in Germany. It seemed that the tradition of these was very deep there (with a declared love to the leader etc.).The author tried to proof that the SS was only the continuation of that and the rejection of the homosexual element had a political reason. but I didn't read the book exactly, so I can't say more about it.
