These are only people who identify as hommers, Ajax. Kinsey's research showed there are a whole lot more in hiding. Back in the 50s, Kinsey's breakthrough research was how many men had had sexual experiences with men. This was big news.
But yes, I agree with your main point. Kinsey's belief in sexual fluidity has been disproved through the use of "petermeters". Most men are attracted to one sex or the other. Bi-sexuality seems to be quite rare.
In the case of women, it's a tad harder to prove. In my humble opinion, women's sexual desire is more "fluid" than males, but I may well be wrong. I believe women are more into emotional connections than men, and this influences their desire. This is only my experience. I'm happy to be shown otherwise.
Sex itself is different to sexual desire. As Kinsey showed, many men switched teams when there were no preferred sexual partners around. This, of course, is old news. Soldiers, sailors, prisoners, schoolboys - homosexuality is common to them all. Australia, as Winston Churchill once said, was built on run, sodomy and the lash.
The traditional view of sex was active versus passive. Men were not seen as hommers if they played the active role in sex with other men. And indeed, this was common in almost all societies, where the chastity of women before marriage was pivotal to the social order.
So yes, traditionally, sex was more fluid, but constrained to where one put one's parts. The idea of the homersexual - someone solely attracted to other men - is a modern invention. Traditionally, men like this were seen as passive and impotent. Their sexual desire was not isolated and abstracted as a thing in itself. The very idea of sexuality is a modern invention.
Kinsey's research, by the way, was based on interviews. He had no way to measure the physiological response, such as the use of petermeters or brain scans.
Your pedo slurs are just silly. Kinsey got his info by interviewing adult subjects about their sexual histories.
The problem with Kinsey’s research is it claims to represent the average man and woman, for those of us who have taken the time to read about this research this claim is utter rubbish because the research included interviewing prisoners (mainly sex offenders), homosexuals, paedophiles, prostitutes (male & female), how then can he claim this research to represent the average man and woman, you don’t have to be an einstein to realise that nothing could be further from the truth.
I’m sure that as more normal and sane researchers delve into the Kinsey’s Institute findings/reports and investigate they will prove it wrong as has already been the case.
This then raises the question of why is this garbage being promoted by the United Nations through their daughter International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF), adopted by governments and taught to school children right around the world..?....Not sure in which context you’re using the “petermeter”.
In the case of women just like men the ones afflicted with this mental disorder stand out like dogs balls. I agree women are more emotional than men but whether this would cause them to suddenly desire another woman that I’m not so sure of.
It’s sexual desire that leads to sex so how can they be different, when the testosterone builds up in a man he starts to think about sex maybe about his wife or girlfriend under him with their legs spread wide open or maybe on top straddling him or whatever, the point is he’s not going to be think about having sex with another man or the family pet, he’s going to be thinking about that intimate feeling of a woman.
You lost me on the traditional view, you either are or aren’t as far as I’m concerned there is no grey area.
What is a petermeter…???
Have you heard of that saying
“Show me who your friends are, so I can tell you who you are”…!
Kinsey was one sick puppy a homo and a pedo who should have been jailed imo.
