How would Gandhi’s celibacy tests with naked women be seen today? | Ian Jack
Gandhi would surely have been widely reviled, says Guardian columnist Ian Jack
For several decades after his death, this episode was not widely known. Popular accounts of Gandhi’s life, including Richard Attenborough’s biopic, never mentioned it. The facts are that after his wife, Kasturba, died in 1944, Gandhi began the habit of sharing his bed with naked young women: his personal doctor, Sushila Nayar, and his grandnieces Abha and Manu, who were then in their late teens and about 60 years younger than him.
My hat is off to him for his genius in dreaming up the scam and apparently, never being caught.
But, I suppose he would remind them, "who is the world going to believe? Two naked bimbos, or me - Ghandi?"
Oh, well. It seems it was consensual, so I hope all involved enjoyed themselves.
