We Have movies like “Kinsey” being shown on television for all to see!!

 

 

Kinsey: Produced by American Zoetrope, Written and directed by Bill Condon.

A story of Albert C. Kinsey, the sex statistician! A man who spent his life trying to erase the word “Pervert” from our vocabulary. To be perverted: means to be turned thoroughly away from the normal. THAT INDEED was Kinsey who turned away from the normal in sexual relations and succeeded in turning his wife, his colleagues, and, eventually, a significant portion of the world with him. He did so by claming to demonstrate that there was no basis for classifying any sexual activity as abnormal, including, but hardly limited to wife-sharing, hetero and homo group sex, voyeurism, sex in any way you choose, sadomasochism, pedophilia, murder for a sex thrill, and – one of his own favorite pastimes – masturbating by means of urethral insertion, preferably using a toothbrush, bristle-end first.

The way that the director presents Mr. Kinsey in his film is basically dishonest. Mr. Condon pretends to give us Kinsey, warts and all; in fact he has carefully sanitized his subject preparatory to canonizing him. The real Kinsey was not at all like what is shown in the film. Playing Kinsey, Liam Neeson has been directed to make the statistician seem a tormented but large-souled man dedicated to a scientifically disinterested inquiry into the facts of sexual activity. Not so, his sympathetic biographers reveal. In “Alfred C. Kinsey: A Life”, James H. Jones judges Kinsey to have been a clever manipulator who masterfully disguised his real intentions from both authorities and associates. “The man I came to know,” Jones writes, “bore no resemblance to the canonical Kinsey.” He was “a crypto-reformer who spent his every waking hour attempting to change sexual mores.” “In Sex: The Measure of All Things: A Life of Alfred C. Kinsey,” Jonathan Gathorne-Hardy reports that Kinsey confided to one of his colleagues that “the most basic force behind his research was deeply personal,” So much for disinterested inquiry.

Entomologist-turned-sexologist, Kinsey made a point of referring to his own species under the rubric of “the human animal.” After a career studying the habits of gall wasps and cataloging nearly 500,000 specimens, he tired of the critter and changed course. He became determined to apply his scientific methods to humans – you and me and our children. As warrant for doing so, he reasoned that “human beings ate just larger, more complicated gall wasps” and assembled a staff at Indiana University to take “sex histories” of thousands of men and women. The ever-progressive Rockefeller Foundation found his early results so promising that they decided to support his efforts lavishly. In 1948, Kinsey published his research in “Sexual Behavior in the Human Male,” followed five years later by “Sexual Behavior in the Human Female”. The Kinsey Reports, as they came to be known, claimed their statistics demonstrated that 90 percent of males and over 60 percent of females engaged, with varying degrees of frequency, in some kind of abnormal or illicit sex, officially defined. It followed, he told supporters at Indiana and the Rockefeller Foundation but not the public at large, that to cleanse society of sexual aberration, you would have to arrest just about everyone in the nation. “When it’s everybody’s sin, it’s nobody’s sin,” he sardonically quipped. (You know the old saying that if everybody jumps off a cliff, it is Ok for you to do the same.)

Seeming to authorize erotic indulgence, Kinsey’s books became best-seller, an almost unprecedented phenomenon for putatively scholarly works. The young Hugh Hefner wrote an ecstatic article on Kinsey’s research for his college newspaper and shortly after graduating, felt himself licensed to launch ‘Playboy’, enriching himself enormously by spreading the gospel of Kinsey-style sexual liberation to the immeasurable pleasure of adolescent men around the world.

And gospel it was, Kinsey had a burning zeal, and his motives were profoundly self-interested. He was seeking a new dispensation in order to accommodate his own peculiar proclivities. This is what stood behind his insistence that judgmental words, such as ‘normal’, ‘abnormal’, and ‘perversion.’ Have no relevance when discussing sex. To prove this, he deep-fried his evidence. For instance, he claimed his statistics demonstrated that homosexuals make up 10 percent of the population and, further, that 37 percent of all men had tat least one homosexual experience ending in orgasm. To this day, these statistics are accepted by many who are unaware that, of the 5,300 men Kinsey interviewed, 1,400 were doing time in prison, and many of them were sex offenders. What’s more, when interviewing homosexuals in less-restricted walks of life, he encouraged them to recruit their homo-sexual friends in his project. Then, there is the matter of self-selecting volunteers. Even today, in this age of sexual bravado, most people are chary of revealing their intimate lives to strangers. Who, then, was agreeing to submit to these interviews in the buttoned-up 40’s?  It was, after all, a time when news of an irregular sex life could cost a person his job. Kinsey’s interviews were perforce a special group. Most were more than ordinarily preoccupied with sex and, therefore, more given to experiment. All this never appeared in the report and is barely mentioned in the film, and then only by one of Kinsey’s academic competitors, a pompous, jealous pig.

The reason Kinsey dwelt on homosexuality was that he was a bisexual whose switch-hitting predilections seem to have been more homo than hetero. There is also a good deal of evidence that he may have preferred voyeurism and animism even more. His devotion to various techniques included autoerotic asphyxia.  For a real treat, he would hang himself from the rafters by a rope tied round his scrotum until he passed out. Then, there is the research that he recorded on film in his attic of his male staff sharing their wives, including his own. No wonder he so freely insisted that there are no normative boundaries to sexual expression.

Sadly, Kinsey felt compelled to study child sexuality, too. To conduct this ‘research’, he contacted several pedophiles and took their sex histories. His two principle sources were Rex King, a sexual omnivore if we are to believe his story, and former Nazi Fritz von Balliseek, whose career met an untimely end in 1956 when he was tried for the rape and murder of a ten-year-old girl. King, who claimed to have had relations with over 9,000 partners of both sexes, human and animal, was especially interested in boys and had molested children as young as two months. Kinsey not only took these gentlemen’s histories but maintained contact with them afterward, warmly thanking them for their help and inviting them to send more information on their exploits when they could. It never occurred to him to report them to authorities To King, he wrote: “I rejoice at everything you send, for I am then assured that much more of your material is saved for scientific publication.” How can this be read but as an encouragement to molest more children in the cause of ‘science’?  As for Von Balluseck, the judge who tried him in Germany wrote the following regarding the miscreant’s diaries.

"With cynicism and passion, he recorded his crimes against 100 children in the smallest detail. He sent the detail of his experiences regularly to the U.S. sex researcher, Kinsey. The latter was very interested and kept up a regular and lively correspondence with Von Balluseck.”

The director of the movie, Condon muffles these disquieting facts.

Condon labored to make Kinsey seem a humane man of science. He was not. He spoke of human beings as animals encoded with but one purpose to reach orgasm as frequently as possible. Love, friendship, children, and family simply do not enter the picture. His was the male dream in its most insane form: sexual gratification with neither context nor responsibility. Kensey seems never to have considered that the sex drive of the “human animal” is designed to foster procreation. This is why his fraudulent research has been so instrumental in visiting sexual chaos on the world Whenever sex is promoted from a means to an end it itself, havoc is likely to ensure. The wild increase in pornography, prostitution, disease, broken homes, abortions, throw away children, and killing in the streets can all be traced to the kind of demand Kinsey and others of his ilk have imposed upon the unwitting: Desire, however wayward, must be satisfied before all other considerations.

Today we face the growing fear in our streets for the safety of our children and our very lives … because some believe that THEIR DESIRES must be met!!!!!!!!
