No, Rosalind Franklin, had she lived, may or may not of won the Nobel Prize. ( only 3 given in one area ) She did have a good X-ray diffraction picture of a DNA molecule, but she was a long way from elucidating the structure, which Watson and Crick did. Her picture was of great help, but it was only one piece of that puzzle. For instance, Crick shared a desk with a biochemist, who's name escapes me for the moment, who told Crick that they were using the wrong nucleic acid form, which was also extremely helpful in determining the structure. I believe you have picked up on some post modern feminist propaganda, which is rather disconnected from the reality of the situation.
