Kinsey’s Sexuality Scale
the kinsey reports were written in the 1940s and 50s which found that there are more than the presumed 3 levels of s-xuality (straight, bis-xual, or gay), but that there are a mult-tude of s-xual orientations. the research shocked the general public and the findings caused shock and outrage, both because they challenged conventional beliefs about s-xuality and because they discussed subjects that had previously been taboo. the belief that heteros-xuality and abstinence were both ethical and statistical norms had never before been seriously challenged.
the kinsey scale ranked individuals from 0 to 6, with 0 being completely heteros-xual and 6 completely h-m-s-xual. a 1 was considered predominantly heteros-xual with only incidental h-m-s-xual experiences, a 2 mostly heteros-xual with more serious h-m-s-xual experiences, a 3 completely equal h-m-s-xual and heteros-xual experiences, and so on. kinsey reported that most american males fell in the 1 to 2 range of the scale and that a large majority appeared to be at least somewhat bis-xual (in the 1 to 5 range). the study also reported that 10 percent of american males surveyed were mostly or completely h-m-s-xual for at least part of their adult lives (in the 5 to 6 range).
the first report (1948) was written about their research on male s-xuality and the second report (1953) was written about female s-xuality research. the first report was the most astounding and shocking to the public. by the time the second report was published, kinsey had lost a lot of respect therefore the research wasn’t held with nearly as much regard.
still today, kinsey’s s-xuality scale is related to how we identify and helpful for understanding ourselves. it gives us valid scientific research to connect to our emotions and says that they are legitimate.
