Prussia as no one knows it - The Eulenburg Affair. A general who dies of a heart attack while appearing in a ballet skirt. A prince depicted in humor magazines having sex with the Berlin city commander. A curfew for Uhlans to protect them from the advances of lecherous civilians. A fortune teller with a special knack for the rectum. It is astonishing how openly and persistently homosexuality was discussed in the high circles of Prussian, precise Kaiser Germany. In comparison, the press reactions to the Kiessling affair and Wowereit's self-outing seem almost harmless. The "Simplicissimus" and "Wahrer Jacob" caricatures interspersed throughout the text are unparalleled in their clarity. Who would dare to depict soldiers with handbags and makeup or top politicians engaged in oral sex nowadays? Journalist Peter Jungblut has delved into this topic extensively.
