One period of research was ushered in by Freud; a second, by Kinsey; and perhaps a third is being innovated by Masters and Johnson. Four major problems, that demand solutions at this stage of research, are cited. They include the ethical problem of the effect of research on the subject, the ideological one of researchers' biases, the social one of the effects of the sexual revolution on behavior and on human fulfillment, and the normative one of the establishment of guideposts for sexual activity in a world in which sex and procreation are but slightly related. Edward Sagarin, Ph.D., New York City, Assistant Professor of Sociology, City College of New York, has previously taught at Brooklyn College, New York Univer- sity, and Pratt Institute. Dr. Sagarin is contributor to and book review editor of Salmagundi, author of The Anatomy of Dirty Words (1962), and coauthor (with Albert Ellis) of Nymphomania (1964) and The Liberal Parent's Guide to Sex Education (1968). He is presently engaged in a study of voluntary associations of stigmatized and deviant people. 1
