  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.
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.

 Charles Kinsey - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Charles Kinsey (1773-1849) was a U.S. Representative from New Jersey.
Kinsey was born in Baltimore, Maryland in 1773.

Kinsey's attachment to camping was so deep that he was to continue as a camper, and later a counselor, into the early years of his marriage.
Kinsey eventually decided to write his dissertation on the gall wasp, a tiny insect that made its home in oak trees, on whose branches its burrowing produced the tumescent growths known as galls.
Kinsey received his Doctor of Science in 1919, and after a yearlong traveling fellowship (which he used to collect even more gall wasps), he arrived in Bloomington, Indiana, in August 1920 as a very new assistant professor of entomology at Indiana University at the salary of $2,000 -- about $21,000 in 2004 dollars.

 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.

Nach Veröffentlichung seiner Forschungsergebnisse wurde Kinsey von seinen Feinden der verschiedensten sexuellen Neigungen bis hin zu Straftaten bezichtigt.
Noch heute, Jahrzehnte nach seinem Tod, werden Kinseys Arbeiten kritisiert, z.
Ein weiteres Beispiel für ihre Kritik ist, dass Kinsey eine Verbindung mit dem 1957 in Berlin angeklagten Nazi-Offizier Friedrich Karl von Balluseck gehabt habe.

 Emanuel Levy : Review - Kinsey
Alfred Charles Kinsey, whose name became synonymous with sex (not always in positive way), is celebrated as a victimized crusader in “Kinsey,” an extremely ambitious but ultimately flawed biopicture.
As a biopicture, “Kinsey” provides enough details to suggest how complex Kinsey was, both as a public persona and a private man. But the film is not entirely satisfying, falling victim to several setbacks that often plague the biopicture genre.
Kinsey begins to instruct them in how to collect information about such sensitive issues as sexual norms and practices methodically and properly--his first dictate to his interviewers is: “Never make a judgment.” Neeson plays Kinsey as a hedonist, open-minded researcher for whom no sexual act is unnatural or abnormal.

 Denver Post Online: Books & Authors
John Kinsey (1693-1750), a brilliant Quaker lawyer, politician, and jurist, was elected the speaker of the New Jersey assembly before moving to Philadelphia, where he enjoyed even greater success, serving at different times as speaker of the Pennsylvania assembly, attorney general of the province, and chief justice of the supreme court of Pennsylvania.
In sum, Alfred Charles Kinsey's paternal great-grandfather was an ordinary fellow who held to his trade, who owned little beyond the means of survival, and who saw to the schooling of his children but could pass little on to them in the way of advanced education, land, a monetary inheritance, or a family business.
Joan Reid, Alfred Charles Kinsey's second daughter and youngest child, remembered Grandmother Kinsey saying that her family had to be escorted by soldiers part of the way because of the threat of hostile Indians.

 Movie Review - Kinsey - Hollywood Bitchslap
Alfred Charles Kinsey (Liam Neeson) was a biologist, taxonomist and pioneering researcher of sexual behaviour.
That Americans lionised Kinsey for his work on men and demonised his study of women suggests he was ahead of his time - the explosion of feminist theory was another 20 years off.
The core of Kinsey is Condon’s absorbing recreation of the sex study and the conditions that called for it, namely the general population’s shocking ignorance in all matters sexual.

 The Kinsey Institute - [Library & Special Collections]
Kinsey, who was invited to coordinate the new marriage course, found little information existed on human sexual behavior.
By 1941, Kinsey's pioneering work had earned the financial support of the National Research Council (at that time funded by the Rockefeller Foundation), which continued until 1954.
This collection representing Kinsey's tenure at Indiana University before the foundation of the Institute includes: course materials on entomology (papers and slides) and zoology (papers, slides, and photographs), speeches and lectures on various topics (1939 - 1942), laboratory and office equipment, and various administrative records relating to his work at Indiana University.

 Amazon.com: Sex the Measure of All Things: A Life of Alfred C. Kinsey: Books   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Kinsey, an extremely complicated individual, was an atheist (he rebelled vigorously against the strict religion of his father), a brilliant professor and scientist, mesmerizing lecturer, intolerant of what he considered shoddy work of other scientists, a loving husband and father, a "benevolent despot", a bisexual, a compassionate and humane person.
Kinsey was denounced by many church leaders including Billy Graham-- after all Kinsey did most of his sex research in the 1940's-- he was revered and praised by many, and was a life line to many persons troubled about their sexuality.
Kinsey's research was as clinically studied as any highly disciplined research should be, but it is no secret that Kinsey and his fellow researchers did a tremendous amount of, ahem, shall we say, "hands-on", direct involvement work which raised scholarly eyebrows, but as Gathorne-Hardy points out, it was done with the most scientific detachment possible.

Kinsey se verra également déstabilisé par la réaction des gens qui voient leur moralité heurtée par ses préceptes scientifiques et ses façons de faire.
Kinsey s'est donné comme mission de démystifier la sexualité pour ses pairs et pour cela, son apport se doit d'être souligné.

 Washington Blade Online
The film ‘Kinsey,’ which opens on Nov. 19, stars Liam Neeson (top) as Alfred Charles Kinsey, a pioneer in the field of sex research whose 1948 study on ‘Sexual Behavior in the Human Male’ concluded, in part, that sexual acts between men of the same gender were much more common than people thought.
Kinsey, who died in 1956 at 62 of a heart ailment and pneumonia, was bisexual, not gay, as many assume.
To buttress their claims that Kinsey approved and encouraged pedophilia, Reisman said Kinsey corresponded and collaborated with WWII Nazi officer, Dr. Fritz von Balluseck, whose young victims in the concentration camps had to choose between rape or the gas chamber.

 Santa Monica Mirror: On The Stage: From Boy Scout to Sex Scholar: A new play explores the life of Alfred Charles Kinsey
Either way, Haskell has taken their substance to heart, creating by that balance that Kinsey refers to — between hard fact and the ambiguous magic that gives it character — a portrait that feels both trustworthy and inspired.
Kinsey and the research team of Paul Gebhard, Wardell Pomeroy, and Vincent Nowlis (a well-teamed Spencer Robinson, Joe Foster, and Dan Wingard) thrive and fall under the pressure of their sexuality research, becoming immersed in their data and in their own tangled relationships, and torn by public opinion, which alternately praises and condemns their work.
If Haskell uses Kinsey’s texts to capture the man’s mind, he locates his emotional life in music (Kinsey loved to play the piano), and on-stage pianist David Bickford adds an essential layer to the piece.

Kinsey's reaction against the vigilant Puritanism of his Methodist father (who fulminates against zippers as tools of modern depravity) has not made the son a libertine but a man who approaches everything with scientific objectivity, even his own sexual difficulties on his wedding night.
Kinsey's peculiar detachment is a plus once he turns to "collecting" the sexual habits of his fellow Americans, the way he had collected hundreds of thousands of samples of the gall wasp, because it gives him respectability as well as methodological rigor.
The irony of Kinsey's character is that he isn't given to temptation in the usual sense (except to be as uncompromising as his priggish father).

 Human Events: Alfred Charles Kinsey (1894-1956)
Kinsey Institute researcher William Simon confirmed "Kinsey interviewed 18,000 people and used only a quarter of the cases in his two reports," meaning data from only about 4,500 total males and females were actually used for the Kinsey studies.
Simon's admission that Kinsey secretly dumped three-quarters of his data coincides with the admission by Kinsey co-author and bogus statistician Clyde Martin.
In a private letter (dated Dec. 13, 1990) to Kinsey Institute Director June Reinisch, Martin confessed that criminals and homosexuals and other atypical men were mislabeled in Kinsey's alleged "report" as representing the sexual behavior of your average "human male." Thus, aberrant men were the ALIMPC statistics that changed American sex laws.
