What is the Kinsey Scale?

The Kinsey Scale, introduced in 'Sexual Behavior in the Human Male', is a numerical scale ranging from 0 to 6. It was developed to describe a person's sexual orientation based on their experiences or responses at a given time. A score of 0 indicates exclusive heterosexuality, while a score of 6 indicates exclusive homosexuality. The scale was innovative in acknowledging fluidity and variability in human sexual orientation.
