View submission: Was Hitler a virgin?

View parent comment

In places where they both resided, Braun was provided with her own room, or suite of rooms. I'm not sure of any account which specifically focuses on whether or how often they *slept in the same bed* (sleep here being literal), but we do have outside observers noting that they certainly spent private time together and their assumption that it was sexual, and quite active at times (as far as I know, there is no *direct* eyewitness testimony though, if you know what I mean, so again, we don't really know the mechanics).

I’m a bit confused.

As a German, the only rumor I’ve ever heard of Hitler’s sex life, even despite reading multiple contemporary books on his personal life, were that of his illegitimate son, begotten in WW1.

Why does your commentary at no point address this?

I know Kershaw finds the legitimacy of Loret’s claims dubitable, but it does seem worth mentioning in a commentary on Hitler’s sexuality, doesn’t it?
