That MMY was having his own private sexual revolution didn't mean he knew anything about the sexual revolution in society that Salcedo was interested in. (Do you think Salcedo had heard rumors of MMY's sexual activities and was slyly hinting about them to see what MMY would say?) No. I think he was just interested in sex and he wanted MMY to talk about it. But on the subject of MMY's sexuality, there's no doubt, if you were around him any amount of time, that he identified himself as a celibate monk and never indicated otherwise, and that he encouraged others to adopt that lifestyle (Purusha and Mother Divine, and their precursors).
