Marguerite Steinheil was a scandalous, if not widely known, footnote in history. She had more than one scandal linked to her.
He most famous of which involved French President Félix Faure. It seems that Faure died suddenly from apoplexy on 16 February 1899, at a critical juncture while engaged in sexual activities in his office with 30-year-old Marguerite Steinheil. It has been widely reported that those activities were oral sex, but their exact nature was in fact unknown and such reports may have stemmed from various puns made up afterward by his political opponents.
A French newspaper, fearing reprisals, published a sanitized versioin of Faure's death, but entitled it 'The Official Version.'
Marguerite must have given one hell of a blow job, in my opinion.
She was legendary for that unheralded skill.
ReplyDeleteA skill that is worth cultivating!
