"The man I came to know bore no resemblance to the canonical Kinsey. Anything but disinterested, he approached his work with missionary fervor. Kinsey loathed Victorian morality. He was determined to use science to strip human sexuality of its guilt and repression. He wanted to undermine traditional morality, to soften the rules of restraint. Kinsey was a crypto-reformer who spent his every waking hour attempting to change the sexual mores and sex offender laws of the United States."

== Generally articles make statements rather than ask questions, at least that's what I thought ==
Hello. These two sentences, "Why did Alfred Kinsey, the father of sex research, seek out convicted sex offenders and represent their behavior as that of typical American males? Why did he say that adult-child sex was “harmless”?" in my opinion would work out better as statements than questions. So we would state, "Alfred Kinsey sought out convicted sex offenders and represented their behavior as that of typical American males. He thought child sexual molesting was harmless." I also think "adult-child sex" is to neutral and it should just be labeled "child molesting". Anyway, the main reason I think it should be changed is I think an encyclopedia should more so be making statements than asking questions. We can still make clear what he was doing by wrong by stating that it was wrong, it does not need to be phrased as a question. --[[User:Burke39|Burke39]] 20:41, 11 May 2015 (EDT)
