no, i'm sure they didnt.

You have no reason to say that. Do you maintain that the British Empire was colorblind multiracialism ? White supremacy was an essential part of the imperial ideology and there is nothing more offensive to white supremacy, nothing that will enrage a racist more, than a brown man having sex with a white woman. It was why Indian soldiers in France were denied leave. It is why in the second world war Indian soldiers were not employed in Northern Europe. Climate was not the only reason. This was an era in which all educated people throught the Western World were indoctrinated in Social Darwinism and Nordic Supremacy and eugenics and spoke quite freely about "higher" and "lower" races. It was an era in which the appointment of Simon Montagu as viceroy of India could be opposed on the grounds that being a Jew he would lack English firmness of character in dealing with the "lower" races.
