    Test Your Sexual Knowledge and Attitudes

    (over)
    Part I. Your Sexual Knowledge
    When 2000 Americans were asked a series of questions about sexuality by the
    Kinsey Institute, only 45% of
    the respondents answered more than half the questions correctly. See how you
    do on this sample of true-orfalse
    questions.
    T or F
    1. The average American first has sexual intercourse at about 16 or 17 years of
    age. True
    2. About 6 to 8 out of every 10 American women have masturbated. True
    3. Most women have orgasms from penile thrusting alone. False
    4. All men like large female breasts. False
    5. People usually lose interest in sexual activities after age 60. False
    6. Masturbation is physically harmful. False
    7. The average length of a mans erect penis is 5 to 7 inches. True
    8. Impotence usually cannot be treated successfully. False
    9. Petroleum jelly, Vaseline Intensive Care, and baby oil are not good lubricants
    to use with a diaphragm or condom. True
    10. Most women prefer a sexual partner who has a large penis. False
    11. A woman cannot get pregnant if she has sex during her menstrual period.
    False
    12. A woman cannot get pregnant if the man withdraws his penis before
    ejaculating. False
    How well did you score? If youre not satisfied with your level of knowledge,
    consider checking your local
    library or bookstore for reputable self-help books about sexual functioning.

    I did a very good job on my score. The only question that I missed was that it is true that
    the average length of a man's erect penis is 5 to 7 inches. This surprised me as I thought
    that the average was much smaller. I actually wasn't expecting myself to do as well as I

    did. I'm glad to have gone over this as it has made me much more confident in my sexual
    knowledge.

    that I was somewhat open about my sexuality but I didn't think that I would score this
    high.
