	Alfred Kinsey - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Alfred Kinsey was born on June 23, 1894, in Hoboken, New Jersey, to Alfred Seguine Kinsey and Sarah Ann Charles.
		Kinsey is generally regarded as the father of sexology, the systematic, scientific study of human sexuality.
		In 1935, Kinsey delivered a lecture to a faculty discussion group at Indiana University, his first public discussion of the topic, wherein he attacked the "widespread ignorance of sexual structure and physiology" and promoted his view that "delayed marriage" (that is, delayed sexual experience) was psychologically harmful.

	Alfred Kinsey - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kinsey's ability early on to spend immense amounts of time deeply focused on study was a trait that would serve him well in college and during his professional career.
		Kinsey was later to claim that his high school biology teacher, Natalie Roeth, was the most important influence on his decision to become a scientist.
		Kinsey maintained that people do not clearly fall into the categories of exclusive heterosexuality or exclusive homosexuality, but that most can be placed somewhere between, in a continuum of sexual orientations with homo- and heterosexuality at the extremes and bisexuality at the midpoint.

		Kinsey found that as many as a third of his heterosexual case histories also showed some evidence of homosexual experience--and that within those histories the extent of homosexual and heterosexual experience varied considerably over time and the individual's life cycle.
		Kinsey was so struck by the extraordinary extent of individual variation in sexual behavior that he argued that any attempt to establish uniform standards of sexual behavior was both impracticable and unjust.
		Kinsey found that on his scale at least 10 percent of men were either exclusively (number 6) or predominantly homosexual (number 5) for at least three years between the ages of sixteen and fifty-five.

	Gale Encyclopedia of Psychology: Kinsey , Alfred Charles (1894-1956)
		Alfred Charles Kinsey was a well-known entomologist, specializing in the study of gall wasps, when his increasing interest in human sexuality led him in a entirely new scientific direction.
		Kinsey's landmark studies, which emphasized both the variety of human sexual activities and the prevalence of practices that were condemned by society, led to a new openness in attitudes toward sex.
		Born in 1894, in Hoboken, New Jersey, Kinsey was the son of a domineering father, Alfred Seguine Kinsey, and a devoutly religious mother, Sarah Anne (Charles) Kinsey.

	The Alfred C. Kinsey Maps Project
		Kinsey’s faith in copious collection was founded on the belief that biological variation was primal and irreducible in the existence of any species, though this belief segmented the wasp genus Cynips to the point that it ignored interbreeding as a uniting component in previous definitions of wasp species.
		In the primary agenda, Kinsey is portrayed as a man permanently scarred by his relationship with his father, a domineering Methodist, and as a man bent on revenge to undermine that religion using its familiar evangelical means.
		Kinsey’s sex life within marriage is portrayed as unsatisfactory, and the implication is that this dissatisfaction stemmed from Dr. Kinsey’s interest in same-sex intercourse and masochism.

		A decade into their marriage, Alfred and Clara were "eagerly" exploring various coital positions newly recommended by a friend; and they maintained a sexual relationship until Kinsey became ill near the end of his life.

		Kinsey also discovered that the urethra was, for him, an erogenous zone, and over time he teased and plied it with various instruments, culminating in the use of a toothbrush.

		Kinsey concluded that the insistence on a vaginal orgasm was a reflection "upon their [men's] conceit as to the importance of the male genitalia" - or, in other words, an expression of male dominance.
		After Kinsey there was indeed further research into sexuality, most importantly from the sexologists Masters and Johnson who made the discovery that, at a purely physiological level, the sensations both men and women experienced when they reached orgasm through masturbation were felt more acutely than when they had orgasms as a result of making love.
		Kinsey's work was undoubtedly of revolutionary importance but maybe it's time to put the orgasm debate into perspective.
