Kinsey and his colleagues (fearing backlash from undesirables, including priests and politicians not scientists) were very clever not to identify categories but put the sexual orientation in a continuum.
This clearly is not scientific in a clinical setting.
This has caused problems for an average clinician.
Often indirect questions or indirect tests are done to avoid embarrassment to both parties.
In an open an promiscuous society, as of today, this has to change at least for scientific reasons.
An adult mature clinician should be able ask a direct question and keep it in his/her (no need for recording it for posterity but he/she should be able give a percentage in a particular set up, say priests / politicians, for proper assessment of a clinical problem, say AIDS) head, as long as a particular patient is under him or her.
It is no point only the cardinal (party leader) or the head priest (school principle) is aware of the situation.
Often these guys and girls are in education or in political hierarchy and these facts are hidden from the average young parents with kids.
As a clinician, if I am asked a question by a mother or father I should be able to tell 10 percent (it is much, much more in reality) of adult priests or teachers are that way oriented (for clarity) and leave the parent to take adequate precaution and or attention.
Because I am not in patient care currently (voluntary decision) I will bare few Ceylonese facts.
We had a higher education minister with venereal disease.
I have avoided the time period and you are free to guess.
There were over 16 (most likely more) principals or his or her close assistant in a particular dense region (I worked in the border region) who were preying kids.
I have had examined the victims but all the parents were against reporting the incidences.
Ten Kilometers from where I worked there was a place run by a Swedish Guy who was an ace pedophile.
We alerted the police, thinking his passport would be impounded but he went scot free, thanks to a prominent female politician.
Yesterday, by bizarre coincidence, I witnessed an accident.
My gut feeling was that this particular kid, under ten was a victim.
I avoided eye contact and vanished in a flash.
