After the Bolshevik revolution in 1917, homosexuality (as well as abortion) was decriminalized.

It was only after Stalin's counter-revolution that gay sex (and abortion) were made illegal. People spoke out against it, including queers and feminists in the Comintern. Again, wtf are queer (or feminist) tankies thinking?
