The world is not to be divided into sheep and goats. Males do not represent two discrete populations, heterosexual and homosexual. Over 8,000 interviews were conducted throughout his research. Kinsey's first rating scale had thirty categories that represented thirty different case studies, but his final scale has only seven categories. Instead of using sociocultural labels, Kinsey primarily used assessments of behavior in order to rate individuals on the scale. Instead, Kinsey believed that sexuality is fluid and subject to change over time. Alfred Kinsey, the creator of the Kinsey scale, is known as 'the father of the sexual revolution.' The Kinsey scale was created in order to demonstrate that sexuality does not fit into two strict categories: homosexual and heterosexual.
