Document Summary
Textbook made an inaccurate comment when it said that we can evaluate kinsey"s work independent from his personal life: kinsey used his wife to barter with his favourite researcher to make him stay in his lab, kinsey"s lab was wild; had sex with each other and subjects, dr. laura schlessinger: radio talk show host, homophobic, says don"t cheat, don"t get divorced, don"t be gay , kinsey was into auto erotic asphyxiation; felt so guilty about masturbation as a kid that he would hurt himself; he would tie things around his genitals and insert a toothbrush in them > sounding, kinsey always claimed he was doing this for everybody else, for people who are prosecuted for doing things that everybody else was doing because of their skin color/orientation > kinsey was also doing this for himself > journey of self exploration, masturbation while thinking of the same gender was sinful.
