As many nersons suspected, it finds- the roaring '30s really hroucht a sharn chance In Ameri can wgnia'i sex lives. They changed toward less frigidity In marriage, and more experience and freedom before marriage. Dr. Alfred C. Klnsey authorized publication today of the scientif ic findings In his long-awaited ec ond book. "Sexual Behavior In the Human Female." It is more than Just statistics or candid confessions of what women do. By comparing men and wom en, It offers keys for happier mar riages and sounder sex laws. Five unusual chapters tell the full sci ence of sex. Some main findings are: .. Ten per cent of wives remain frigid, never experiencing a sex ual climax, oo ao zs per cent oi older single women. Yet many such inexperienced women advise youths about sex, or help draft sex . laws. One in four wives 28 per cent more at some time commits adultery, whereas about half of all husbands ultimately have extra marital affairs. Some husbands en courage wives to do so. About half of all women have sex relations before marriage, about half of them Just with fiances. Only about two thirds ever reach climax in tnese premarital re lations. ' Most women reach a peak of sex ual activities about the age of 27 or 28. Once they reach It It can be earlier or later than that they usually maintain a steady level of activity, until their 60s or 60s, with little decline from aging. V jp1" " OPEN :3Q NOW SHOWING! FANTASTIC SIA SUNT Life KQ. Mimut "'Unit Under Iht Little Big Top" Pitney Cartoon - Sports But most men 'reach a peak of activity In their late teens, then steadily decline with age. The male peak is most often far higher than women's, so that male activity re mains higher throughout life than the activity of most females. But the fact Is most men are growing old In sexual capacity When their, wives, are becoming more interested and less inhibited In sex. This difference often leads to marital problems. Its still a mystery why women don't show this aging effect. Of 33 kinds of psychological arousals toward sex, only . three stimulated higher percentages of women than men. These three were seeing romantic - movies, reading romantic literature, and being bitten. Men are usually more aroused by nude pictures, thoughts oi sex, or outer reminders. A third of women sre not aroused at all by any psyebosexual stim uli. But 2 to 3 per cent are far more aroused than any man. Trouble often comes when men expect women to react psycholog ically as men do. Men often fall to realize that women are more easily distracted from sex bv noises or interruptions. The ease of male mental arousal accounts lor nuabands' wanting more fre quent sexual contact, and men's difficulty in getting along without it. Wives often fall to understand that. ' - The sex response Involves 20 bod ily or physical changes, including faster pulse, higher blood pres sure, shortage of oxycen. ranld breathing, lessened ability in sen and hear. Anger involves 14 of these same changes. Anger thus eauau minus six. This could exnlaln some km crimes, "why frustrated sexual re sponse too readily turns Into anger ui rage,- or anger can lead on to sex. It could explain why mari tal quarrels sometimes lead to lovemaking. Fear contains nine of the n re actions, and epilepsy produces eight of them. , Basically, there's no differ. In the anatomy and physiology of sex, response in men and women. The nerve endings Involved are the same, - People at times hav ti.i.t schemes to abandon the family and home, but "none of these schemes has provided satisfactory substi tutes for the home, and most of them have been short-lived His. tory confirms the Importance of the family." . At marriage, about one third nf women have never had a sexual climax, through any method. But almost loo per cent of men have. The woman who exnerlem-M climax befor marriage, by any metnoa, nas a two to three times better chance of achieving sexual success earlier in marriage. Kin- sey says thd meaning of this must oe studied.: . No two persons are exactly alike In their sex lives, none fits en tirely Into all the averages Klnsey has yet found.. Each person can easily believe that what she or he does is normal. , This Individual variation "Is the most persistent reality of human sexual behavior." And '"There are no sexual qualities found in only one sex or the other." Women show greater extremes In sex than do men. While some remain frigid, 14 per cent regu- m m. mm DOOR! OPEN 6.

Fifteen years in preparation, the new 842-page book will be pub lished Sept. 14 W. B. Ssunders Co.. PhiladelDhla. 18.00) More readable than tie male book published five years ago, the new reiiort is autnorea oy ui i members of the staff -ol the In stitute for 8ex Research. Inc., at Indiana University. Main Co-authors with Dr. Klnsey are Doctors Wardell B. Pomeroy, Clyde . Martin and Paul K. Oebhard. All 'profits from the book go to the institute to aomlnue .the male and female studies and for future renorts on sex laws, marital ad justments, sex education and other projects. ' ' ' ill lemaie report araws ou in terviews with 5.840 females aged 2 to. 90, of various religions, educa tion and occupations. ; It also drsws upon the institute s 18.000-volume sex library, upon studies of anthropologists, gynecoi oglsts, psychiatrists and otner e nerts. UDon analysis of sex laws, sex life In other countries, sex life of animals, and individuals' sex diaries and calendars. Five special chapters tell the up- to-date story of , the anatomy, phy siology, psychology, nerve mecha nisms and hormone influences in sex. Despite Its title. Dr. Klnsey says the book does not pretend to report sex behavior of all American worn en, much less women throughout the world It excludes Negro women be cause not enough had been inter viewed, it nas some limitations in geographical representation, but Dr. Klnsey says the findings are probably typical of many Ameri can females. The purpose as with other stud' les is to learn scientific facts about a field of human activity long beclouded by Ignorance, Dr. Klnsey explains. He holds mat be fore sexual behavior can be under stood, or any phases of it more Intelligently controlled, It must first be learned what people ac tuaiiy do: Other findings: The decree of school education has - less effect on sex behavior of women than 'men. Premarital relations were more common among girls who had gone to col' lege and .high school than among those of grade school education only. The opposite was true oi men, The "double standard" Is be coming more of a single standard due to greater premarriage exper iences of modern women Fewer women than men are homosexuals. Better educated women are more likely to be homosexual. Giving sexual nor. mones to homosexuals does not make them less homosexual. It Is untrue and harmful to many women to say that most women do not enjoy sex. "The church, home, and school are the chief sources of sexual Inhibitions, the distaste for all as pects of sex, the fears of phylcsl difficulties which may be Involved In sexual relations, and the feel Ings of guilt which many females carry with them into their mar rlages." Laws and customs: 85 per cent of women and 95 per cent of men could be Jailed for their sex acts oy strict interpretation oi laws. "Many people, perhaps lortunate- ly, have no .conception that their everyday sexual solvit les may, In actuality, be contrary to law.' others live m dread tnat tneir actions, considered normal bv many other persons, may be found out. In some states, a man can be jailed as a sexual psychopath for wanting sex relations oftener than his wife does, it a doctor Judges nis desires to be excessive. "Ex cessive" could be anything more than what the doctor himself does and believes Is normal. The law makes no provision for about 40 per cent of the population which is sexually mature, but not married, and "many youths and older unmarried females are seri ously disturbed because the only sources of sexual outlet available to -them are either legally or so cially disapproved." Marriage: "Men will never learn to get along better with women, or women with men. until each un derstands the other as they are, i n.d not as iney nope or Imagine them to be." About two thirds of marriages at some time run into trouble over Sex factors were among causes of 75 per cent of divorces In these case histories. "Sexual adjustment represents only one aspect and not necessar ily the most Important aspect of marriage. No balanced program for American youth can be con lined to preparing them tonly) for the sexual relationship in mar riage." "There Is as magic In the mar a person Instantly lose au innini tions about sex acquired since childhood." "It Is rather surprising mat so many married couples are - ever awe to work out a saiisiaciory sex ual arrangement." Petting: About 40 per cent of girls have petted by age IS. Nearly 100 per cent of the younger gen eration pets before marriage, some to climaxs. Many feel suiltv. but "little nas been said about the psychological disturbances and subsequent mari tal difficulties which may develop when there Is such condemnation and constant belaboring of any type of behavior which has become so nearly universal, and which is as likely to remain universal, as petting is among American fe males and males."- Petting gives most girls their first real understanding of experi ence with the other sex. It gives a girl "an opportunity to learn to adjust emotionally to various types of males. Thus sne may acquire some wisdom in cnoosing tne par icular male with whom she hones to make a permanent, life long adjustment. Physical: All parts of the body. not lust the sex organs, are in volved in sexual response. Sexual reaction, because of tneir speed, apparently depend upon nerve mechanisms. It Is not true that Women have more erogenous or sexually sum' ulattog areas on their bodies than men. Almost every sexual organ has its counterpart In the other sex. and the differences "are or no great significance in the origins and development 6f sexual re sponse" and climax, i The brain controls reactions, to fasvchosexual stimuli, and differ ences in chemistry 'of .men's and women's brains might explain their different reactions psychologically. Smaller percentages of devoutly religious girls and women engage in premarital sex relations. Venereal disease may be less a problem than It formerly was. Of 1,753 women having premarriage relations, only 44 ever contracted such a disease. Too often what is called nymphomaniac Is merely a person who has more climaxes than the doctor or other person to whom sue is talking, It Is apparent that if parents or other adults are to be the sources of a child's first Informs' tlon on sex, they must give that i 10 or 12." or earner, or uie child will leam lrom companions. rwfinloi' ustlmates aav some 130,- ooo children are born out of wed lock annually in the unitea tsuiies, but "the actual facts might mul tiply this figure several times." Of 2,084 women having premarital af faire (with union total of 460,000 times) 478 became pregnant. No Eyebrow-Raising As Kinsey Questions BLOOMINGTON. Ind. WI Dr. Alfred C. Klnsey says winning peo ple's confidence and asking ques tions In a calm objective way are two keys to getting facts on human sex lives. , He's interviewed college presi dents, housewives and business ex ecutives, and even cracked the un derworld to win confidence oi shady men and women there. In 15 years, he and inree asso ciates have Interviewed some 18. 000 men and women over the coun try. ' Of 8.000 women questioned, the case histories of 5,940 form much of the basis of his new book, which will be out Sept. 14. An Interview lasts Hi to 3 hours and covers 300 questions, or up to boo for persons with wide expert ences. He says he can't pick human subjects In the same statistical way as do Interviewers about pot tics or other subjects to get n representative cross-section of the Amelcan public. For if you rapped on- the door of homes chosen that way,, many people would refuse to answer his very personal questions, Dr. Klnsey s approach is urst to win cooperation In different sec tions of communities, or through clubs or groups of all social levels, as well as through Individuals. Often one person convinces anotlv er to cooperate. This happens in the underworld, and by such conll dences Dr. Kinsey may actually know . more about rackets . and crime In some cities than many police officials. Dr. Klnsey explains everything told to him will be kept strictly confidential,, by secret codes, starting the sex studies:- how stu dents at Indiana University asked him, a soology professor, questions about sex to wmcn ne cowu uu find factual answers, anywuere, and, how little was actually known. scientifically, about human sex Be havior, .. "We believe." he writes, "that an Increased understanding of the biologic and psychologic ana social factors which account for each type of sexual behavior may con tribute to an ultimate adjustment between man's sexual nature ana in. idi of society." And he be lieves most people at times face problems "which some grester un- derstsnding . oi sex wumu solve. . - rir Klnsev asks his questions one after the other.
