It wasn't until society became familiar with Freud and his theories about everything being sexually oriented that men stopped showing physical closeness in photographs. Men had been comfortable with each other till Freud made them self conscious.

You have a point in that men were allowed to be more openly affectionate with each other earlier in the 20th century. However, we simply don't know the nature of these guys' relationships. I'm sure some were straight guys who were good friends, and some were guys who were in a deeper kind of relationship, what we would call "gay" nowadays.
@Bartcmh2 жыл бұрын
Most countries have no problem with men holding hands or putting an arm around each other. It’s a gesture of friendship nothing gay about it. It’s just America that is so uptight about physical affection to the point they’re willing to beat the crap out of someone for being perceived gay.
@Mcfreddo10 ай бұрын
Ok, the ones wearing pinky rings are a dead giveaway for being homosexual. It's a code ring for gay. There are photographs displaying far more than friendship. Like when on the knee of his friend. What do friends do when too much affection is too much? Arm over shoulder for each. Could be friends, could mean more. 8% of male sheep are gay. 2 papers that I know of. All sexualities I think according to Kingsley runs at about 35%? Most of the Northern Europeans are stiff upper lip for a long time; including in Germany, including Britain and North America, with physical affection between same sex. Southerners are a bit different. Most of these here are white people; I think it's more likely in the undecided photos, that they are gay or bi?

@Mcfreddo10 ай бұрын
When the photos are good enough, you can see a pinky ring often. A dead giveaway. The way they hold in many are relationship love holds. Of course affection is affection, but there is also the 'you're the everything for me' hold and looks. Some look like close friends. There could be something written on the back? A question is; even if affection were acceptable greatly, would friends hold each other to that intimate extent- with that level of completeness? Compare affectionate people with countries like Indonesia and other Asian countries where holding hands can be commonplace amongst young men, is that even like a lot of these?
