…Kinsey found that women were masturbating, having sex before marriage, and engaging in same-sex behavior, among other things. Men aren’t the only ones with sexual needs and desires? Who knew?
Because Kinsey was willing to stand against the prevailing social norms and moral values of his time, female sexuality (and the study of sex in general) ultimately became a worthy area of scientific inquiry.
From Celebrating 60 Years Of Kinsey’s “Sexual Behavior In The Human Female” by Dr. Justin J. Lehmiller.
A very happy anniversary to the book, and a big thank you to Alfred Kinsey for paving the way toward a better understanding of female sexuality. BTW, if you want to learn more about Dr. Kinsey’s research, The Kinsey Institute’s website has you covered.
