Women

While it’s often asserted that Rasputin had flings with women of all social classes (and many threw themselves at him), Simanovitch felt that women were attracted to him more for the consideration he showed them than for his physique. There is, however, no confirmation of the accusations of promiscuity. He not only loved women but sympathized with them, helped them, and defended their interests. When women came to Rasputin complaining of miserable lives due to tyrannical husbands, he recommended a rapid divorce and would see to it that the trial process was simplified and resolved in the woman’s favor.

“If a woman wants a divorce,” he would say, “she must have her freedom immediately, because life as a couple is unbearable to her. If the husband wants a divorce, generally he is lying or cheating. He doesn’t want to feed his wife and children, or has a mistress.”[135] Many women came to Rasputin for help with a divorce. He always cut through the bureaucracy to help them, as well as instructing his banker friends to assist them financially, if needed.

“It’s a great sin to wrong women,” he said. “A man can be a swindler in politics, business, or trade, but he must always be honest and noble with women.”

And he apparently hid nothing from his wife, as Simanovitch and Marya remark that she, on her rare visits to St. Petersburg (she managed their farm in Siberia), appeared flattered by the attentions paid to him by the aristocratic ladies. When Simanovitch asked if she wasn’t jealous, she merely smiled and said that he had plenty of love to go around.[136]

Vyrubova, who often saw Rasputin and was part of the religious circle that met at his apartment, stated that she never met nor knew Rasputin to have a mistress, nor did any of the other ladies in their circle. She and the others went to hear him speak, as he knew all of the scriptures by heart, and enjoyed discussing them.[137]

In his memoirs, Rodzyanko, last President of the Duma, who despised Rasputin, claimed to have boxes full of letters from mothers whose daughters were ‘dishonored’ by the man of God. However, for a man bent on destroying Rasputin, it is odd that he never produced those letters. In addition, it’s somewhat suspect that the mothers of these women would write to the Duma President, rather than call the police. The biographer, Roullier, asserts that these letters never existed and were merely a fabrication of Rodzyanko’s.[138] There is, at any rate, no evidence to substantiate them.

Only two women have ever come forward with accusations of sexual impropriety. One was the governess of the Tsarina’s children, Sophie Tutchev. This governess had been recommended by Grand Duchess Elizabeth, the Tsarina’s sister, who hated Rasputin. Tutchev spread rumors about him being a Jew, as well as accusations of sexual improprieties, though she had never met him. Authors Judas, Vyrubova and others recount that Tutchev accused Rasputin of molesting the Tsar’s children and having an affair with the Tsarina.
