How Hitler had sex
Adolf Hitler had sex with Eva Braun without
touching her and after first "fortifying his
underpants with clean serviettes and napkins",
according to the imagination of Martin Amis.

In a discussion about Hitler's sexuality - or lack
of it - Amis described a sex scene between the
Nazi leader and his companion.

The author believes Hitler was asexual and
obsessive about hygiene, and that he would achieve
climax by looking at Braun rather than touching
her.

"I would hazard this is how it went with Hitler
and Eva," Amis said.

"He would fortify his underpants with clean
serviettes and napkins.

hen he would go into some sort of excitation with
Eva Braun staying a safe distance.

"There would be bourgeois perversion because he
was the bourgeois anti-Christ - don't forget the
bourgeois in him. I imagine Eva would stand a
distance away and lift her skirt. Then there would
be some sort of soggy climax on Hitler's part and
that would be that."

Amis's latest novel, The Zone of Interest, is set
during the Holocaust.

Speaking at Cheltenham Literature Festival, he
said historians had failed to understand Hitler's
motives because they knew nothing of his sex
life.

"No-one understands Hitler. No-one understands
what he was up to. And I don't want to be
reductive here or simplistic or frivolous, but I'm
convinced that one of the reasons why we don't
recognise Hitler is that he's sexually a void," he
said.

"Sexuality is one of the ways we recognise each
other: knowing whether someone is married or gay
or whatever it might be.

"In Hitler studies there are three schools of
thought about his sexuality.

"One is normality, which I think you can boot out
for consideration immediately. Can you see Eva
Braun relishing a post-coital cigarette? Can you
imagine Hitler's tender foreplay, him being a
considerate and energetic lover? No, you can't
begin to imagine. So I would say normality is
out.

"Asexuality is the other one, the third one is
perversion... There are no real clues about his
sexuality except that he wouldn't take his clothes
off even for his physician and he was also
fanatical about cleanliness, which suggests to be
asexuality plus."
