Simone de Beauvoir
Not-So-Fun Fact
In 1993, French author Bianca Lamblin wrote in her book Mémoires d’une jeune fille dérangée (Memoirs of a deranged young girl, published in English under the title A Disgraceful Affair) of her sexual exploitation by Sartre and Beauvoir. Lamblin claims that while a student at Lycée Molière, she was sexually exploited by her teacher Beauvoir, who introduced her to Sartre a year later. Sartre and Beauvoir frequently followed this pattern, in which Beauvoir would seduce female students and then pass them on to Sartre.
As more women came forward, the appalling truth about Beauvoir is she was a sexual predator of the worst kind, grooming some of her female high school students in Rennes for threesomes with her and Sartre, as documented in her own letters to Sartre and in the book Tête à Tête by Hazel Rowley.
