Women and SexMonday 8 September 2003
Alfred Kinsey
Alfred Kinsey was an entomologist by training, and wrote his first book, What Do Birds Do When It Rains? as a teenager.

But he is best known for his landmark sexuality research project, which he began in 1938, and resulted in the famous "Kinsey Reports."
This month marks the 50th anniversary of one of the reports, 'Sexual Behaviour in the Human Female.'
How much of a difference did Kinsey's work make to women's lives? Discussing its influence and impact in the studio will be Lynne Segal, Petra Boynton, and Virginia Ironside.
