I've found a claim online that gay men were not liberated from Nazi concentration camps at the same time everyone else was. I can't find any backing for this claim. Is it true? If so, for how long?

I'm seeing this claim repeated in a few different places but I can't find a more primary source. On its face it doesn't seem like too ridiculous a claim, but on the other hand, the idea that Nazi prison guards were allowed to stick around and get paid to hold a gun and prevent these people from leaving while everybody else goes free seems incredibly questionable to me.

How did this go down, if it did? And for how long?

Et cetera. Someone else might write a new answer for this specific question.
