Wow, shades of Nodame Cantabile, except that Chiaki's father didn't seduce innocent women and leave illegitimate children all over the place. It's a strange thing about male geniuses, whether they are artists or scientists. A larger percentage of them, compared to the male population as a whole, are wildly promiscuous. According to Discover Magazine, one theory suggests that male geniuses are unusually endowed with enthusiasm for risk taking, which is notoriously testosterone linked. It could be testosterone linked, as I've never found anything that says women geniuses have any greater libido than women in general. It would be ironic if, after hundreds of years of proclaiming that the male is logical/rational and the female emotional/irrational, the exact opposite is actually true!
