Kinsey and his associates, "Sexual Behavior In The Human Female," to be published next year, are previewed in an article by Morris L. Ernst and David Loth in the May issue of Redbook mag- agine (appearing on the newsstands nationally April 28th). Under the heading "What Kin- sel Will Tell," the authors of "American Sexual Behavior and the Kinsey Report," which sold more than one million copies, present for the first time a selection of heretofore unknown or uncorrected facts gleaned from close association with the work of Dr Kinsey and his associates. Already people are asking, the article says, if the Kinsey report will reveal that women have greater sexual activity, sexual interest and sexual experience than men, and whether those who condemn the modern woman for loose morals are right or wrong. It is mainly on the answers to these questions, the writers say, that new concepts of education in the homes and in the schools and even new laws on the subject of sex may well be based. In predicting that the report on women will be more widely read and discussed than the first vol ume, on men, the writers say that both men and women are more interested in the sexual behavior of women than in that of men. Men want to know how members of the opposite sex react, the article says, but women want to know the sex habits of other members of their own sex. If anything the report on women, the article says, should be more accurate than the one on men because it is based on twice the number of interviews, more than 10,000, and represents an elaboration on the earlier interviewing. Furthermore, it is pointed out, there are some definite facts which were not available before. For the new report Dr. Kinsey and his associates have taken down answers to sixteen questions as the experience of many of hundreds of wives of husbands previously interviewed and the stories they tell are said to coincide with "surprising exactitude," although told under Circumstances which are said to preclude possibilities of collusion. The article then presents the onswers to sixteen questions as they are expected to develop in the Kinsey report on women. A mong the more definitive findings were the following: It is antici pated that Dr. Kinsey's figures will show that the sexual development of -women is slower than that of men with only about twenty- BAND CONCERT By Western Carolina Teachers College Band PROFESSOR W.

This fact, the writers say, poses some difficulties for our educational system, which is geared to handling students by age. Also, it appears, according to the writers, that while males attain their maximum sexual drive in their teens, women do not reach it until several years after the average age of marriage, or at about twenty-nine. Moreover, unlike that of men, women's maxi mum sexual drive does not decline at once but rather remains at an average high level for five or six years. Discussing the quetion of whether sex activity increases with education, the Kinsey figures are expected to show that the one sex activity that seems to increase with education is "petting" and to a lesser degree homosexual experience. Also, that there appears to be a greater percentage of women who have sexual relations among those who had a grade school education or less. Furthermore, the writers say, general confirmation can be expected of earlier studies showing that one- third of college Vomen who marry never attain complete sexual satisfaction. This seems true, the article says, in spite of the fact that in recent years college worn en have been taught that it is possible for wives to achieve the same goals as their mates in this regard. When the modern college graduate fails to achieve satisfaction with her marriage partner, the article says, she is likely to blame either him or herself. This dissatisfaction is said to contribute to the increase in divorce, for she is more apt than her grandmother would have been to seek a change in her partner for this reason. Other phases of the subject treated in the questions and answers include discussion of the effect on sexual behavior of changing customs, the relative frankness of men and women in talking about sex, comparison of what is sexually stimulating to each of the sexes, the incidence of homosexuality among women, the differences in sex behavior patterns including that of the unmarried woman as compared to the bachelor, the variations in sexual patterns in the light of differences in race, build and color. The article also discusses the attitude of women toward children's sex activities and the differences in the sex activities of boys and girls. The article points out that while the Kinsey findings are important to the seientists, they should be even more useful to the ordinary man and woman, especially the parents of young and adolescent children- as- they furnish a basis for the intelligent handling of vital problems. "One of the greatest destroyers of marriage," the writers declare, "has been the inability of a couple even in the intimacy of matrimony to tell each other what they feel about sex. The very facts of the Kinsey report and the widespread interest in it have created communication between husband and wife." The writers maintain that even such facts as they present show that sexual behavior is governed largely by the cultural pattern of the individual and that there is a tremendous gulf between practice and what has been held up as practice, that this is a challenge for parents and teachers especially to whom the full Kinsey report may serve as a tool to make the sex life of future generations healthier than that of the past.
