Kinsey

Alfred Kinsey, a biology professor at Indiana University, was fascinated by biology from a young age, despite his father's disapproval. He initially studied gall wasps, but later shifted his focus to human sexuality, driven by student questions and his own experiences with his wife, Clara McMillen. Kinsey aimed to dispel misinformation about sex, such as the notion that oral sex and masturbation cause health problems. He developed a popular marriage course, then conducted a massive sex survey with the help of students, facing funding and public backlash. The survey also led Kinsey and his wife to confront their own sexuality and the cultural and emotional aspects of love.
