    Kinsey is a movie that portrays the life and studies of Dr. Alfred Kinsey, a man who revolutionized the way Americans perceive sex and sexual activities. The movie starts out with Kinsey as a child, and shows how he was brought up as a Christian, his overbearing father was a pastor, and was also very strict. He had always been taught that masturbation was a sin, but he did it anyway. His father had decided where he was going to college, but he decided to go elsewhere instead. He very much liked to study gall wasps, and went all over the world collecting them. In the class he taught where he talked about gall wasps, he met one of his students, Clara, and they ended up falling in love and got married. When Kinsey decided to teach a marital sex class, the school board was hesitant at first, but finally gave him the opportunity. Many people took the class, and many people were shocked at some of the material that was presented in the class. Kinsey had a few assistants, one named Clyde Martin in particular, who actually had sex with Kinsey in a hotel room for "experimental purposes." He eventually ended up having sex with Kinsey's wife too. Kinsey also had three children, a son and two daughters, and they would all talk about sex at dinner at night, which Kinsey's son didn't enjoy. Kinsey and his assistants, and their wives, had a strange relationship in that they would all switch partners on occasion. They were kind of like a big group of Swingers. Eventually Kinsey ended up being very publicly criticized for his work about female sexuality, but his wife and his close friends stayed with him.…

    Many areas of science resolve the issue of homosexuality as a sexual ethics dilemma by analysing the causes of homosexuality. Sigmund Freud claimed that homosexuality is a personality disorder resulting from a person’s failure to deal with repressed issues of sexuality from infancy and to develop fully into mature sexuality. He claimed that the causes of homosexuality simply trace back to the relationship between a child and their parents. Many researchers believe that homosexuality may be the result of an imbalance of the hormones or a genetic disorder. Both these arguments go some way to solving this dilemma as both conclusions suggest that homosexuality is not a moral choice and cannot be prevented or supressed.…

    The research is done in the 1970s at a time when ‘tearooms’ was a reference for public toilets where men could have sex. At the time of the research, it was illegal and a crime for men to have sex with each other in the United States. Humphrey thought it would be of value to the society by trying to understand what encouraged men to indulge in this behavior. Humphrey declares that the men that partake in these homosexual activities originate from different backgrounds from all over the world and have different personal motives for seeking other homosexuals.…

    Between the years of 1965 to 1968 Laud Humphreys, an ordained Episcopalian minister, conducted a dissertation research on men who have impersonal sex with men (Humphreys, 1970). Humphreys stated that, “ In the summer of 1965, I wrote a research paper on the subject of homosexuality. After reading the paper, my graduate advisor raised a question. The answer to which was not available from my data or from the literature on sexual deviance. ‘But where does the average guy go just to get a blowjob? That’s where you should do your research’” (Humphreys, 1970, P.16). Hence, Humphreys decided to do his research on the ‘Tearoom Trade: Impersonal sex in public places’ from a voyeur’s perspective, which was acting as a participant.…

    While watching the movie Kinsey, I was slightly uncomfortable watching it in a room full of strangers. But I can't say that it was a good educational film. Seeing that back then no one took the risk or was knowledgeable enough to discuss it to other people or the whole world. Even though it was a big risk, Alfred Kinsey took up the research of the subject. Human sexuality has changed so much since the 1940s to present day. Today, you see it and hear it everywhere. From friends to social media. I really like the scene from the film when he asked a question and chose a girl to answer and she freaks out on him when the answer was the eye. She protest that he can't have her answer a question like that in a room full of men and women. Before Kinsey…

    There has been a drastic change in the way people, scientists especially, view homosexuality. German neuroendocrinologist Günter Dörner’s attitude towards homosexuality, for example, changed from seeing it as being “a mental disorder with a biological cause” to a cluster of traits with a “natural non-pathological nature.”(5) Being homosexual is not a mental disorder. No research has proven an innate association between non-heterosexual orientations and psychopathology. Dr. Evelyn Hooker’s research in the 1950s found no difference between gay and straight men in respect to mental health. Homosexual behavior, like heterosexual behavior, is a normal part of human bonding and sexuality. Homosexuality isn’t something new or regional, it has been documented during many different time periods and within many different cultures. After a lot of research and clinical experience, all mainstream medical and mental health organizations in the U.S. have concluded that both heterosexuality and homosexuality are natural and normal parts of human…

    In relation to Richard’s Mohr perspective on the status of homosexuality in today’s society, I have to agree 100%. I feel as though Mr. Mohr drew decisions based on logical reason and reliable facts within the discriminatory history of homosexuality. Richard Mohr declares that homosexuality isn’t as unknown or rare as the society would like one to think, rather, it’s a common practice. One spiking piece of information which Richard list to support his argument was that a Gallup poll showed only 1 in 5 Americans reported having a gay acquaintance as opposed to Alfred Kinsley’s 1948 study on the sex lives of 5,000 white men, which showed that 79% of these people have had various homosexual experiences. The unit in which the 1948 and 1985 studies differ could be greatly derived from one’s incapability and fear to accept his/her sexuality because of the narrow societal standpoint on the subject matter.…
