Sexual Behavior in Modern China

Book excerpt: This is the first nationwide survey of sexual behavior in China, which, in the meantime, has been widely acclaimed as the "Chinese Kinsey Report." The report was planned and supervised by four sex researchers leading a team of 40 assistants and over 500 field workers over a 15-month period. They obtained over 20,000 completed questionnaires from all parts of China, northern and southern, rural and urban. The voluminous book caused a sensation not only in the People's Republic, but also in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Singapore. It provided a first glimpse of a hitherto hidden aspect of life in China. A groundbreaking survey -- nothing more or less than the Kinsey report of modern China. Sexual Behavior in Modern China: Report on the Nationwide Survey of 20,000 Men and Women.
