Holocaust Survivor: Molested by Homosexual It’s commonly accepted that Hitler targeted homosexuals for extermination — just as he did the Jews.
"Not so," says Stephan Ross, the Newton resident who is the founder of the Holocaust Museum in Boston.
And he should know. Ross was there. He lived, and almost died, in Nazi prison camps from the age of 9 to 14.
And while the abuse of the Nazis took many forms, he says he was sexually molested more than once by homosexual Nazi prison guards. He knew it was also going on with other prisoners, "although I didn’t go looking for it."
He estimates that about 20 percent of those guarding Jewish prisoners were homosexual. And he says that Hitler may have taken a public stance against homosexuals, but he believes that stance was simply a device to round up Catholic priests or others Hitler wanted to remove from society.
