But this completely flies in the face of Archimedes treasured and "deadly serious" OSS psych report which insinuates (very luke warmly, mind u) Hitler's homosexuality as resulting from his "femininity." Looks like we have a contradiction here!

Damn. And it was all making sense, wasnt it.

OSS psych report which insinuates (very luke warmly, mind u) Hitler's homosexuality
as resulting from his "femininity." Looks like we have a contradiction here!

I'm no psychologist (and don't even play one on TV), but it wouldn't be too
much of a stretch to consider that Hitler and some of his Nazi cohort might have
(go ahead and laugh) a softer feminine side, but adopt a public personna of
hyper-masculinity in order to build an image of power.
IIRC, Heydrich fit this sort of portrait.

Now, whether some of these Nazi guys were actually practicing or closeted
homosexuals, who knows. As for Hitler himself, I'd just say he wasn't your
average guy who gets married, has 2.4 kids, a house in suburbia and two cars.

I read the OSS report many moons ago and maybe my young-teen mind didn't catch the intimation
that Hitler was gay. My impression was that the OSS thought he was an imbalanced
guy with some screws that weren't quite correctly adjusted for normal behaviour.
