Dr. Reisman’s study supports the conclusion that Alfred Kinsey’s research was contrived, ideologically driven and misleading. Any judge, legislator or other public official who gives credence to that research is guilty of malpractice and dereliction of duty.” Charles E. Rice, Professor, Notre Dame Law School
“Dr. Reisman: You can be very proud that you are included in Who’s Who in America, the directory The New York Times just recently hailed as “…that venerable guide to American achievement…” Once again, we’d like to congratulate you on your accomplishments.” Who’s Who in America
Alfred Charles Kinsey (1894 – 1956), was an American biologist and professor of entomology and zoology who in 1947 founded the Institute for Research in Sex, Gender and Reproduction at Indiana University, now called the Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender and Reproduction. Kinsey’s research on human sexuality profoundly influenced social and cultural values in the United States and many other countries which went through the sexual revolution starting in the 1960s.
He is best known for his two controversial, very popular and widely influential publications Sexual Behavior in the Human Male (1948, reprinted 1998) and Sexual Behavior in the Human Female (1953, reprinted 1998).
Kinsey maintained that most people do not all clearly fall into the categories of exclusive heterosexuality or exclusive homosexuality, but that most can be placed somewhere between, in a continuum of sexual orientations with homo- and heterosexuality at the extremes and bisexuality at the midpoint. His detractors, such as the Family Research Council, claim that Kinsey’s work is a force that seeks to legitimize homosexuality, which the organization opposes. They tend to regard a homosexual orientation as a voluntary choice rather than an involuntary condition.
As a result of the work done by Kinsey and others, the American Psychiatric Association, in 1973, removed homosexuality from its list of mental illnesses.
Judith A. Reisman (b. Judith Ann Gelernter, 1935, Newark, New Jersey) is best known for her criticism of the work of Alfred Kinsey. She argues that that many of Kinsey’s sexual viewpoints are not appropriate in the context of modern sex education. Reisman alleges that Kinsey and his staff gathered Kinsey’s data from pedophiles and sex offenders to produce some of the data in the Kinsey Reports. She draws attention to the fact that Tables 30-34 of Sexual Behavior in the Human Male report observations of orgasms in more than three-hundred children between the ages of five months and fourteen years. The Kinsey Institute maintains that Kinsey never had any sexual interaction with children, nor did he employ others to do so, and that he always interviewed children in the presence of their parents [no citation provided by source: Wikipedia].
Judith Reisman was born to a second-generation Jewish-American family in 1935 in Newark…. She gained an M.A. in 1976 and a PhD in 1980, both in Communications, at the Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. Reisman has also been based at Haifa University in Israel.
She has authored and co-authored a number of books and scholarly articles including: The U.S. Department of Justice, Juvenile Justice study, Images of Children, Crime and Violence in Playboy, Penthouse and Hustler (1989), Kinsey, Crimes & Consequences (1998, 2000), Soft Porn Plays Hardball (1991), Kinsey, Sex and Fraud: The Indoctrination of a People (Reisman et al, 1990) and Kinsey’s Attic: The Shocking Story of How One Man’s Sexual Pathology Changed the World (Hardback).
Dr. Reisman is listed in numerous Who’s Who biographies such as: Who’s Who in Science & Engineering, International Who’s Who in Sexology, International Who’s Who in Education, Who’s Who of American Women and The World’s Who’s Who of Women. Her scholarly findings have had international legislative and scientific import in the United States, Israel, South Africa, Canada and Australia, while The German Medical Tribune and the British medical journal, The Lancet demanded that the Kinsey Institute be investigated, saying:
The Kinsey reports (one in 1948 on males and the companion five years later) claimed that sexual activity began much earlier in life…. and displayed less horror of age differences and same-sex relationships than anyone at the time imagined. It was as if, to follow Mr. Porter again, “Anything goes”. In Kinsey, Sex and Fraud, Dr. Judith A. Reisman and her colleagues demolish the foundations of the two reports … Kinsey et al … questioned an unrepresentative proportion of prison inmates and sex offenders in a survey of “normal” sexual behavior. Presumably some at least of those offenders were also the sources of information on stimulation to orgasm in young children that can only have come from pedophiles–or so it must be hoped. Kinsey…. has left his former co-workers some explaining to do. The Lancet, (Vol. 337: March 2, 1991, p. 547).
Reisman has guest lectured at numerous educational establishments, including Princeton, Georgetown, Tel Aviv University and the Rutherford Institute, as well as to the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado.
