35. Kinseys research was groundbreaking
However, his sampling methods have a lot to be desired.

He only sampled people who wanted to take part in his survey, and instead of going with a sample population, he tried to measure the WHOLE population. That might work in Zoology, but in Socioligy by the time you measure the whole population, the data is worthless.
