Kinsey Was Wrong: Sexuality Isn’t Fluid

A new study from researchers at Washington State University (WSU) analyzed data from a survey of over 33,000 U.S. adults and found that a “taxonic,” or categorical, model was better suited for describing sexual orientation than a continuum model like the famous Kinsey scale. In other words, sexuality isn’t a sliding scale so much as it is a complicated multiple choice question.

But just because sexuality isn’t a continuum doesn’t mean it isn’t incredibly complicated. Some reporters, Norris noted, have oversimplified their study to make the false claim that people are either “gay or straight.”

“That’s definitely not what we’re saying,” Norris clarified. “We’re saying there is a class of people who are heterosexual and then a class that’s non-heterosexual but there’s a fantastic amount of diversity within those classes, especially that non-heterosexual class.”

No, I'm not going to rewrite bisexuality out of my stories. Maybe fluid sexuality will remain operative in LIT fantasyland, along with horse cocks and pneumatic boobs.

I rather suspect that things may have changed a little in the six or seven decades since he published.

Yeah, now we have free online pr0n for every minute kink. Are people who get off on costumed shemale anal 19-daisy-chains really 'straight'? And do folks answering sex surveys lie sometimes?

Surely not. I thought I was the only one that did.

So if I say that I have two left feet, should I be worried about whether I am or non?

If things aren't fluid then someone needs to bring the lube.

Sounds like a distinction without a difference.

Also because sexuality isn't something set in stone. A non-zero number of people can and do move along the scale or between the options throughout their life.
