PROF. ROBERT GEORGE IS A BITTER OLD LADY

(h/t Andrew Sullivan)

George gave an interview to Katherine Lopez which was published in the NRO and peddled the usual End Of The World hysteria about the legalization of gay marriage. What I found more interesting is the attacks he made on two dead people:

Early advocates of this cause, such as Margaret Sanger, Alfred Kinsey, and Hugh Hefner, proposed to “liberate” people from “repressive” moral standards that pointlessly deprived individuals of what they insisted were harmless pleasures, and impeded the free development of their personalities.

Although Sanger was a racist and a eugenicist, though Kinsey was a liar and a fraud, though Hefner was a buffoon, the liberationist view they had championed eventually hardened into something very close to a matter of orthodoxy in elite circles, and liberalism as a political movement went for it hook, line, and sinker.

Prof. George's claims about Sanger are either false or misleading, as I have shown before.  His claims about Prof. Kinsey also seem to be false or misleading:

Kinsey’s inquiries into human sex life led him to found the institute and to publish Sexual Behavior in the Human Male (1948) and Sexual Behavior in the Human Female (1953). These reports, based on 18,500 personal interviews, indicated a wide variation in behaviour. Although interviews were carefully conducted and certain statistical criteria met, the studies were criticized because of irregularities in sampling and the general unreliability of personal communication.
