![]() It was at an academic conference in Wales in the late nineteen-seventies that Reisman discovered Kinsey. But the sexual revolution caught her off guard, and she became concerned, first, about the spread of pornography. Her parents were members of the American Communist Party, and she belonged to the Labor Youth League in Los Angeles in the nineteen-forties. Reisman was not always a counter-revolutionary. “Idealistic ‘gay youth’ groups are being formed and staffed in classrooms nationwide by recruiters too similar to those who formed the original ‘Hitler youth.’ ” The Nazi Party and the Holocaust itself, she writes, were largely the creation of “the German homosexual movement.” Thanks to Alfred Kinsey, she warns, the American homosexual movement is poised to repeat those crimes. Reisman also endorses a book called “The Pink Swastika,” which challenges the “myths” that gays were victimized in Nazi Germany. The Kinsey paradigm, she holds, created the moral framework that makes such recruitment possible. In her research on gays, for instance, she has written that the “recruitment techniques” of homosexuals rival those of the Marine Corps. To a reader of Reisman’s scholarly papers, it sometimes appears that there is little for which she does not hold Kinsey responsible. “He was an ideologue who was most importantly a sex offender at best, and, beyond being a sex offender, he was certainly a child sexual abuser and/or solicitor and guide in the perpetration of that abuse.” At the root of this accusation is an interview that Kinsey conducted with a sexual predator who kept detailed records of his activities with hundreds of women, men, and children. Kinsey’s most egregious fraud is that he wasn’t a scientist,” Reisman said the other day. Last week, Reisman testified at a congressional hearing about the dangers of pornography addiction, saying that police should be required to collect evidence of pornography consumption at any crime scene. More recently, she has been active in the rise of abstinence-only education in June, her colleagues gave her an Abstie Award for lifetime achievement. She has served as a consultant to the Departments of Education and Health and Human Services and was given seven hundred and thirty-four thousand dollars by Ronald Reagan’s Justice Department to study pornography. in communications and a former songwriter for Captain Kangaroo, Reisman is the president of the Institute for Media Education and the lead author of “Kinsey, Sex and Fraud” and “Kinsey: Crimes and Consequences.” In one article, Reisman describes Kinsey as “a scientific and moral fraud, a certifiable sexual psychopath as well as a sadomasochistic pornography addict and a sexually harassing bully.” Though largely unknown outside social-conservative circles, Reisman has been influential within them. The new film, she said, is “deceptive and malevolently misleading, to say the least.” A sixty-nine-year-old independent researcher with a Ph.D. ![]() She spent a week in Washington, D.C., recently, talking to people on Capitol Hill about opening a congressional investigation into Kinsey’s work. Judith Reisman is the founder of the modern anti-Kinsey movement. A recent newsletter of the abstinence-education group Why k now? compared the publication of “The Kinsey Report,” in 1948, to the attacks of September 11th, and labelled Kinseyism “fifty years of cultural terrorism.” Most Americans no longer give much thought to Kinsey as a societal force, but his detractors believe that his significance can hardly be overstated. The recent release of “Kinsey,” a film about the famous mid-century sex researcher, has made this a busy time for the anti-Kinsey movement. ![]() All of this they trace back to the work of one man: Alfred Kinsey. Ray then took the lectern and presented an overview, complete with charts, of our current state of sexual degeneracy: the repeal of laws against abortion, adultery, fornication, and even sodomy. “Many of us are casualties of the sexual revolution,” he said cryptically. Ray was introduced by her husband, Colonel Ronald Ray, who grabbed the audience’s attention by announcing that the United States “lost the most important war of the twentieth century.” He was referring not to Vietnam, where he served, but to the sexual revolution. When Judith Reisman and Eunice Van Winkle Ray lectured together recently in Nashville, Mrs.
