I had a friend who was a physicist and a woman who also did science-themed musical performances. She told me that Hawking was a total horndog and would even frequent strip clubs. She also said Kip Thorne and his wife were swingers and had propositioned her a bunch of times. Then there's that famous bet that Hawking and Thorne had regarding black hole information and where the winner would buy the other a magazine subscription to Hustler.

Edit: I'm not saying any of what I described in my comment is necessarily a bad thing, however joining Epstein on a trip to his SA pedo island most definitely is. I was just trying to add some context.
