"His Womanizing Was Well Known": Flood-'Gates' Open As Biographer Details Microsoft Founder's Salacious Past
Before Bill Gates was known as an elitist nerd masquerading as a leading vaccine expert, the Microsoft co-founder was a hard-partying womanizer who recruited local strippers to attend naked pool parties, and had major issues with infidelity even after marrying Melinda, according to a biography.
The Microsoft co-founder’s wild lifestyle was well known among his inner circle — but newspapers like the New York Times hid the unflattering reports to continue getting “spoon-fed stories,” James Wallace wrote in the 1997 biography, “Overdrive: Bill Gates and the Race to Control Cyberspace.”
They “didn’t report on the wild bachelor parties that Microsoft’s boyish chairman would throw in his Seattle home, for which Gates would visit one of Seattle’s all-nude nightclubs and hire dancers to come to his home and swim naked with his friends in his indoor pool,” Wallace wrote.
It was a continuation from his time at Harvard, where he “did like to frequent Boston’s notorious Combat Zone, with its porn shows, strip joints, and prostitutes,” Wallace wrote.

“Womanizing” doesn’t seem to fit the behavior described. Paying for women’s company doesn’t really seem the same as carrying on multiple romantic relationships with women who think they’re the main bitch. To me, “womanizing” implies that the women fell for the man because he was slick and seductive. Like Armie Hammer, who had women paying for the hotels and thinking he loved them. I don’t think Bill Gates was pulling that, ever.

Yeah, well, rumor has it the marriage was basically arranged, with his parents telling him he needed a family and a stabilizing influence, and her family telling her she could change the world with his money.
Not a marriage based on passion or romance.

Well, now I've heard everything. Aspie Bill Gates was (is?) a swinging womanizer and horndog?
I agree, Melinda is MAD about something, and applying the thumbscrews. Maybe she's worried that even without a prenup, he's going to nickel-and-dime her?

Whoever's team is behind this needs to stop. No one is buying Bill Gates as some lothario. Bill looks like a withered elderly version of Ellen and has the sexual heat of dusty nicknacks left in the attic.

If it's true that Melinda is a serious, dedicated, ethical, life-long do-gooder who has been running the Bill-and-Melinda foundation with no input from the uncharitable Bill, then she is going to play HARDBALL in the divorce.
Because if she truly believes that every dime she squeezes out of Bill is going into vaccination or COVID research or some other worthy cause, and that whatever money she lets him keep will be spent on hookers and agricultural land that ought to be in the hands of actual farmers, then she isn't going to settle for a few billion. She's going to believe that squeezing every possible billion out of him is The Greater Good, and what's a little bad press or flat-out blackmail when the world's children need vaccinating?

I doubt Bill has had no input into the foundation, but it wouldn't surprise me if there's always been a tension between Melinda's do-gooder motives and Bill's social engineering. It happens that their objectives sometimes overlap. Melinda wants to uplift women globally for women's benefit; Bill goes along with it because women's education and employment lowers birth rates in the third world.
It'll be interesting to see what happens with the foundation after their divorce. If Melinda is truly a do-gooder, I would assume she's vying to maintain some control over it even after the divorce is finalized.

The Murdoch media wants to let all their paranoid readers who hate vaccines know that the head vaccine guy (at least in their minds) is a degenerate so not getting the vaccine and exposing your family and friends to a deadly virus is fine.
The the UK, the Murdoch media mocks vaccine deniers and basically the entire country is on board.
They could save a lot of lives by not doing this shit.

There’s nothing wrong with being a horn dog so long as it doesn’t manifest itself in work place harassment and creepiness. Get your kinks in your free time and leave your coworkers and subordinates alone. I’m a gay man, hornier than Bill Gates ever was, and it never bled into my professional life because I don’t need to hold power over people to get some ass.

Those things make him way better looking than ugly ass Gates. But Bezos would have to keep his mouth shut during sex. I would not wanna hear anything that arrogant asshole has to say.

My female friend was a gorgeous, early 30's IBM exec and ended up in a hot tub with a very horny 19 yo Bill Gates at a conference. She blew him off because ew, nerds with big ideas were a dime a dozen, and her tastes ran more towards handsome older men. But she laughs about the missed opportunity to teach him a few things, and get in as an early Microsoft investor.

I do not believe Bill gates was a womanizer since he is very uncomfortable around other women that isn't named melinda. I think it is a pr push to project him as a playboy even though he looked like he was a virgin until he married melinda. He reminds me of my ex boyfriend, socially awkward nerd who isn't good with women or sex in general but he has harassed quiet a few women for dates. He might be autistic like gates without the money and genius ideas.
