Question

why and in what respect hitler considered women different from men?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Karl Wilhelm Krause served as Adolf Hitler’s valet — his personal orderly — for five years, starting in 1934, and was thus a close witness to a key period in the Nazi dictator’s rise to power — and the personal preferences and foibles of the man behind the Holocaust. His account of that time has been published in German, but the new book Living With Hitler brings his remembrances and two other similar narratives together in English. As historian Roger Moorhouse notes in the introduction to the new edition, Krause, who died in 2001, “was perhaps as close to his master as anyone would get: waking him in the morning, serving him breakfast, managing his wardrobe and travelling with him wherever he went.”

The following is an excerpt from Krause’s eyewitness account of that time.

Here is a question many people asked themselves: why didn’t Hitler get married? What I can state here is that Hitler certainly did not hate women. Proof of this are the many actresses who were invited during the early years to afternoon and evening performances. Often, during our travels, he would suddenly be totally enchanted, exclaiming: “My God, isn’t that a beautiful girl (a beautiful woman).” He then turned around, making me, who was behind him, move to the side so that he had an unrestricted view behind him and could follow the lady with his gaze. If, in any given place, an exceptionally beautiful girl would catch his eye, Brückner more often than not had to find out her address. After that, the lady was invited for coffee, either to Munich, Berlin or on the Obersalzberg, just so that Hitler could have a chat with her. In the earlier years, he also often joined members of the KDDK (Kameradschaft der deutschen Künstler) when they gathered after performances in the theatre and opera houses.
