The KINSEY
REPORT
BY DAVID SCHWARTZ
Agency, Incl

new KinseY book on sex and the
human female is the big noise.
II is something new. almost un-
precedented. In fact. the only pre-
cedent I can think of is the Trac-
tate "Yevamoth" of the Gemara.
which came out about 1000 years
ago. "Yevamoth" deals entirely
with sex in the famale too. don't
suppose it has been read as much
as the new KinseY book. There is
some good reading in the old
books. it seems. but you've got to
know Hebrew TO do it.
Sex is a topic usually left to
the sensationalist and I think the
significance of Mr.. Kinsey's work
lies in the fact that he, trained
university man, has taken this
subject and dealt with it scien-
tifically and realistically.
The Jews have been from an
cient times quite realistic about
sex. The ancient Jews never
blinked the fact that you couldn't
just deny sex or try to push it
away as something unworthy"
The fact that the Jewish religion
put such an emphasis on marriage
is proof of this realism. Jewish
thought regarded it an obligation
to get married. Some rabbis held
that a man could be brought to
court if after a certain age he
had not done so. The significance
of this is plain. It meant that sex
was fact of life. an unacceptable
experience which no one should
seek to escape.
The same thought is stressed
by the emphasis put on helping
a girl marry. According to the
Ethics of the Fathers, which
every good Jew reads on the Sab
bath, helping a girl get married is
such great mitzvah that you are
repaid for it by God in this world
and even get little interest on
it in the world to come.
Perhaps marrying off everyone
irrespective of other considera-
tons is not the complete ideal So
luton. but it certainly was COM
prehensive and perhaps about as
good as any generalized solution
can be. II assured sex experience
for all.
It is interesting to note that the
church which took over so much
from Judaism did not altogether
see eye to eye with Judaism in
this matter of sex. To the church,
sex is essentially sinful. To the
Jew, sex itself, when it is legiti-
mate, was not so regarded, al
though there were apprehensions
about it's excess. Judaism tried to
sanctify instead of forbid sex.
Legitimate relations were not
only forbidden, but sometimes
even encouraged They were
"Mitzvoths.
1T is better TO marry than TO
burn" said Saint Paul. but the
ideal state. he held. was celibacY.
That is not the Jewish view. and
seemingly it is not the view Of
KinseY. who maintains that even
the school teacher is a better
teacher. if not sex starved.
haven't seen the new Kinsey
book. I don't know whether it
takes up the matter of divorce. It
seems to me that here too the
Jewish experience is singular. It
is extremely easy for a man to
get a divorce, according to the
Jewish law, and yet divorces

"All Norwegians are supposed
to be lazy for three weeks every
year." DR.. Lange replied. cit is
the law that all employed are
entitled to annual three-week
holidays with pay, and even if
they want to, we don't like them
to work then. We try to educate
them to use the time just to be
lazy"
I commented upon the fact
that everybody in Norway seems
to speak English and added the
guess that there's scarcely any
illiteracy.
Maybe very little among the
older Lapps in the north who
move with their reindeer herds"
DR.. Lange said apologetically,
adding: The young ones are all
right; We have a boarding school
system for them"
What makes so much of what
Norway is at the moment seem
almost incredible is that the
country was occupied completely
in the second World War and
all the vast northern stretches
were Systematically destroyed
under Nazi scorched-earth policy.
I'VE had to begin at the very
beginning" recounted DR.. Lange.
I'VE had to build roads, put up
houses, and even dig wells for
all the 10000 people who live
up by the Polar Sea. We had to
reconstruct our fishing feet and
our merchant marine"
In the seven years of energetic
rehabilitation, Norway has dou-
bled her electric power, is de-
veloping iron and steel works
and is now able to export alu-
minum.
Last summer I travelled the
length of the country and saw
for myself the wonders these
people have accomplished in a
part of the world where winter
nights last for months. Tiny
Tromso, entrance to the Arctic
country, and Hammerfest, north
ernmoSt city in the world sur
rounded by glaciers and rugged
mountains of barren rock, are
neat, bustling frontier towns to-
day with few evidences left of
what happened less than a dec
ade ago.
If Norway can accomplish
such wonders, I don't see why
the rest of the world can't. But
maybe it's the old Viking spirit
that's lacking some other places.
That Viking spirit is certainly
magnificent but occasionally |
terrifying. I shall remember al
