it was obvious that it was not for the sake of science since the
public
nature of science means, if you don't publish it (or at least try to),
you aren't doing it in the service of science.
The topic is about the false claims that Watson conducted sex
experiments (nor specifically with Rosalie).
Rosalie Rayner and J.B. Watson were married almost immediately
after his divorce from his first wife was finalised, they had two
sons, and they lived happily until Rosalie's untimely death.
During her illness in hospital, John B. never left her side, and
their son James told me personally that he saw his father cry only
once, when he told his two sons of the death of their mother.
As stephen Black notes, however, I too suspect that no fact will get
in the way gossip.
