Homosexuality
Kinsey said in both the Male and Female volumes that it was impossible to determine the number of persons who are "homosexual" or "heterosexual". It was only possible to determine behavior at any given time. (See Kinsey's Heterosexual-Homosexual Rating Scale.)
Instances of at least one same-sex experience to orgasm:
* 37% of males
* 13% of females, (p. 650, Male, p. 475, Female)
Males:
* 10% of males in the sample were predominantly homosexual between the ages of 16 and 55
* 8% of males were exlusively homosexual for at least three years between the ages of 16 and 55. (p. 651, Male)
* 4% of white males had been exclusively homosexual after the onset of adolescence up to the time of their interviews, (p. 651, Male).
Females:
* 2 to 6% of females, aged 20-35, were more or less exclusively homosexual in experience/response, (p. 488, Female)
* 1 to 3% of unmarried females aged 20-35 were exclusively homosexual in experience/response, (Table 142, p. 499, and p. 474, Female).
