I would see Watson occasionally at Cold Spring Harbor and knew women there that he interacted with regularly.  Later in life he was interested in connections between female hirsuteness and sexuality.  A scientists's version of a foot-fetish I guess.  In any case, since his leanings were towards the more plump ladies he probably would have been disappointed with Pattaya.  I don't know how he felt about Asian ladies.  Probably either extremely positive or extremely negative.  

Interesting.

 

Watson wrote a textbook which was used by very many schools, many years ago.

However, did he actually write it himself, do you know?

Did he ever visit Stoney Brook, do you know?

I'm guessing you are referring to Molecular Biology of the Cell by Alberts et al?  There were a number of authors that contributed to their relevant sections.  I'd imagine that Watson did in fact write his section but who knows?  I've written sections of grants for PI's during my time in grad school and never got credit (not that big of a deal imo).  I think that any good grad student finishing their thesis in one or more of the sections covered by the book would be able to write for MBC.

 

Not sure about Stony Brook as I never spent much time out there.
