Kinsey Page #9
Why, the rush ofblood alone would...
Oh! Oh!
Shall we get started?
My grandmother introduced me
to sexual intercourse when I was 10.
My first homosexual act
was, uh, with my father.
Uh, I was 11...
Of the 33 members
of my extended family...
I've had sex with 17 of them.
That's five generations now.
My penis is 8.24 inches long...
with a diameter of 2.8 inches
when fully erect.
In my youth, I averaged eight cubic
centimeters of semen per ejaculation.
By the time I was 50,
I was down to five.
I've had sex with 22
separate species of animals.
I've had intercourse
with 9,412 people.
I've had sexual relations with...
Have you ever seen a boy orgasm?
No.
No, right.
I guess that's why I'm such a catch.
Physiologically, it's almost identical
to an adult orgasm.
Screw this.
I'll see you down at the bar.
I thought you trained them
to be impartial.
Sometimes it's difficult.
Yeah, well,
I suppose someone like me...
really puts your beliefs
to the test, huh?
- How?
- You know.
- Everybody should do what they want.
- I've never said that.
No one should be forced to do
anything against their will.
No one should ever be hurt.
You know, you're a lot more square
than I thought you'd be.
Let's get on with it.
Sure.
Please, Governor.
You're so angry, I can't reason with you.
When you calm down, we'll discuss it.
Seems that the archbishop of Fort Wayne...
tipped off the customs board.
What is it with these people? They're simply
depictions of man in his natural state.
I don't know much
about natural states, Prok...
but here in the state of Indiana
we have a problem.
We'll just have to take
the customs office to court.
And who's gonna pay for that,
the Rockefeller Foundation?
You're an inch away
from losing your grant as it is.
That's not true.
What do you mean?
Hoover is still annoyed
that you won't help him...
find homosexuals
in the State Department.
It is rumored that he is
compiling dossiers... on you...
the activities of your staff.
And, as you well know, there have been
complaints about your statistical methods.
Trumped-up nonsense.
Nothing but disguised prudery.
Prok.
Maybe there were small mistakes
made in the male study...
but we've corrected them
in the female volume.
This will be a very great book,
Herman.
- Much better than the first.
- Let's hope so.
Liberty and license are as far apart...
As liberty and tyranny.
Kinsey
is a deranged Nebuchadnezzar...
leading women out into the fields...
to mingle with the cattle.
"Self-appointed messiah
of the sexually despised.
"Having had his way
with the male of the species...
Kinsey now insecticizes
American womanhood."
Did you get any sleep at all
last night?
How many years do I have to study
human behavior...
before I'm no longer an entomologist?
- Why do you read them, Prok?
- I'm trying to find out why
people hate this book so.
You told them their grandmothers
and their daughters are masturbating...
having premarital sex,
sex with each other.
- What did you expect?
- Some respect!
Don't answer it.
- Hello.
- Say, Kinsey, what kind of sick man are you?
Why do you wanna go around poking your nose...
We're in trouble.
The cost of film stock is astronomical.
Shouldn't our nonprofit status
get us a discount?
Prok, you've got to let some of this go.
We need a full-time accountant.
What in heavens...
Stop this!
Stop it at once! In my office.
Gebhard, get in there.
Everyone, back to work.
Do you have any idea
what a delicate time this is?
Our enemies are watching
everything we do.
We can't afford a single slip-up.
This has nothing to do
with the project.
- Everything is about the project!
- Oh, it's just a...
- a misunderstanding.
- No, it's not.!
You let things get out ofhand
with Martin's wife...
and now she wants to leave him.
Isn't that right, Martin?
And what about you, Gebhard?
Are you planning to leave Agnes and the kids?
- No, of course not.
- Then end it.
- I've tried.
- It's not difficult. Just tell her it's over.
- No explanation necessary.
- All right.
Clyde, I'm...
I'm very sorry about all of this.
I saw this coming.
Gebhard should have
nipped it in the bud.
You are so full of sh*t!
What are we to you, Prok?
We'rejust lab rats?
Is this just another part
of the project...
To prove that sex...
No. No, I'm sorry.
F***ing is...
nothing more than...
than friction and harmless fun?
Well, let me tell you...
that is a risky game,
because f***ing isn't just something.
It's the whole thing.
And if you're not careful...
it will cut you wide open.
Go home to your wife, Clyde.
She's going to need you.
I thought the rules were clear.
No intense romantic entanglements.
They only make people's lives unstable.
I guess we all can't be
as disciplined as you, Prok.
The question of marital infidelity...
The question of marital infidelity...
remains one of the most complicated
issues facing our society today.
Reconciliation
of the married individual's desire...
for a variety of sexual partners...
and the maintenance
of a stable marriage...
presents a problem which has not been
satisfactorily resolved in our culture.
The fact is, America is awash
in sexual activity...
- only a small portion of which
is sanctioned by society.
Sexual morality
needs to be reformed...
and science will show the way.
Sometimes...
I sometimes wonder
what this country would look like if...
the Puritans had stayed at home.
What if all the rogues and libertines...
had crossed the Atlantic instead?
But the enforcers
of chastity are massing once again...
to dissuade the scientist,
intimidate him...
convince him to... cease research.
For heaven's sake!
- If you could get him...
- Yes, Mrs. Kinsey.
Mac.
He's killing himself.
And you have to help me stop him.
- Okay.
- Hmm?
Hi.
Doctors say my heart...
sounds like a cement mixer.
Seems I've developed
a dependency on barbiturates.
So...
if I've been a bit harsh lately...
- How's Alice?
- She's fine.
We're fine.
You should get some sleep.
It's always been my biggest fear,
Clyde...
dying before I finish this work.
In the course of these hearings
on tax-exempt foundations...
we intend to show how Communists
are financed in the United States.
There is a diabolical conspiracy
back of all this...
and its aim is the furtherance
of socialism in America.
Do you agree that Kinsey's research...
aids the communistic aim...
of weakening and destroying
the youth of our country?
I do not agree, sir.
Well, tell me, Dr. Gregg...
does the Rockefeller Foundation
really believe...
that it belongs in the business
of sex research?
I think it's probably something...
the foundation shouldn't
have anything to do with.
Dr. Kinsey's project
is now in a position...
to obtain support from...
other sources.
With the loss of support
from the Rockefeller Foundation...
Dr. Kinsey's project will need
