JAKARTA History today, 70 years ago, January 15, 1953, Soekarno asked Fatmawati's blessing to remarry. The woman she was about to marry was Hartini. Fatmawati's response was to refuse to be polygamized and choose to leave the State Palace.

Previously, Bung Karno clearly called himself a beautiful woman lover. He said he was happy when surrounded by women. In fact, his love for beautiful women is equivalent to his love for art.

About women, Soekarno is not a hypocritic person. He will be honest when he meets a woman who attracts him. He himself offered himself a chance to get acquainted and get to know him more. However, not all beautiful women were then approached by Bung Karno.

He only approaches someone he admires. The rest, Soekarno doesn't care much if other women have a crush on him. He has no relationship with a woman without a marriage bond.

However, that doesn't mean Bung Karno doesn't like being surrounded by women. He likes it. Even he treats all women who are best known. This attitude made Bung Karno often get fans from women.

Moreover, he proclaimed himself as a lover of many things. Art lovers, Indonesia, and of course beautiful women. Sometimes his happy attitude is surrounded by beautiful women who often carry oblique comments. Mainly, related to Bung Karno's high sexuality.

Such questions are difficult to answer, they are difficult to respond to. What I know is that Bung Karno's sexuality is natural, but he is not a hypocritic in that regard. Bung Karno could not have lived together (living together) with a woman without a marriage bond.

Because it contradicts the principle of his life's view. En hij steekt dat niet onder steelen en banken: He likes to be surrounded by beautiful women. In this case he doesn't like to pretend. Bung Karno is a he man, handsome, interesting, and warm, charmeur (perayu), "said his personal doctor, R. Suharto in the book Witness History (1984).

However, Bung Karno's activities close to women often make his wife jealous. At least for his third wife, Fatmawati. His heart hurt when Bung Karno came to her who had only been giving birth for two days, Guruh Soekarnoputra asked for her blessing to remarry.

The incident occurred on January 15, 1953. The woman Bung Karno's choice at that time was Hartini. Fatmawati was angry and didn't play. He didn't want to be polygamized. As a result, Fatmawati chose to leave the State Palace.

Then Bung Karno stood up and walked away from the room where I lay. Can my brothers imagine with a refined feeling, how strong a wife would feel to listen to a wife's request to listen to a husband's request like the one above if she was not assisted by Allah the Most Beneficiary to remain steadfast to hear such a request? Despite my kindness, one thing to be praised: Bung Karno is not hypocritical/hidden, "said Fatmawati Soekarno in the book Little Note with Bung Karno (2016).
