Kinsey Reports

Book • 1948
The Kinsey Reports, comprising *Sexual Behavior in the Human Male* (1948) and *Sexual Behavior in the Human Female* (1953), are groundbreaking studies on human sexuality conducted by Alfred Kinsey and his team.

These books were based on extensive interviews with thousands of individuals and presented data that challenged widespread beliefs about sexual behavior.

The reports introduced the Kinsey Scale, which described sexual behavior on a continuum rather than in binary terms.

The books were highly controversial due to their frank discussion of sexuality, but they are considered pioneering works that significantly influenced public perception and research in the field of human sexuality.
