That’s nothing, here’s French philosopher Henri Bergson:
He was so popular with the ladies that 700 or more would show up to his lectures (the room could only hold half that).
The literary critic and politician Gaston Deschamps noted that a new trend could be observed in Paris: every day, around five o’clock, ‘We hear the most beautiful women of our century deliciously conversing around small tables about M Henri Bergson, they salute Creative Evolution in their reedy voices, they coo over the wonders of emotional intuition and gloss over the “vital impetus”.’
