"Well Done, Son" Guy | |
| Kinsey / int_1779f10e | comment |
"Well Done, Son" Guy: Kinsey has a rather strained relationship with his father. The old man laments that the only kids he has left at home are a daughter that is "too fat to get married" and a son with a failed business while the only one that left is "the big scientist". Kinsey's father refused to attend any of his graduation ceremonies or his wedding. Dropping out of SIT hurt their relationship quite badly. | |

Framing Device | |
| Kinsey / int_1e1afc1b | comment |
Framing Device: Kinsey explains his sexual history to the viewer through the framing device of him training an interviewer how to ask questions by posing as a subject. | |

Also the "omnisexual" man, a much more skeevy example. He's had sex with 17 family members, 836 preadolescent children, 22 species of animals, and 9,412 people total. | |

Death of a Child | |
| Kinsey / int_269e82c1 | comment |
Death of a Child: Only in the film. The Kinseys' first child died at the age of five but is not mentioned at all in the film. | |

Leaning on the Fourth Wall | |
| Kinsey / int_4a3e547f | comment |
Leaning on the Fourth Wall: While in New York, Kinsey is asked by a reporter if there was a chance his report would be made into a film. Kinsey responds that he couldn't think of anything more pointless. | |

Extreme Omnisexual | |
| Kinsey / int_8159411a | comment |
Extreme Omnisexual: The "omnisexual", who doesn't even care if his partners are adults (or human). While Kinsey is pretty open-minded, this "subject" clearly disgusts him. | |

"Not So Different" Remark | |
| Kinsey / int_984ef9ef | comment |
"Not So Different" Remark: Kenneth Braun believes this about him and Kinsey, given their dedication to research and sex. He's put off when Kinsey reveals he's not for completely free sexuality and specifically opposes rape and hurting others. | |

Metaphorically True: He was filming animals to make a visual record of mammalian behavior. He never said which mammal species he was focusing on (H. sapiens, as it turned out). | |

Really Gets Around | |
| Kinsey / int_bf1255fa | comment |
Really Gets Around: Both Kinsey and his wife had several extramarital affairs. No Double Standard was applied, since both Alfred and Clara were polyamorous and had an "open marriage". Also the "omnisexual" man, a much more skeevy example. He's had sex with 17 family members, 836 preadolescent children, 22 species of animals, and 9,412 people total. | |
