At a time when frank conversations about adolescent development were rarely committed to print, Wardell B. Pomeroy — a principal researcher on the landmark Kinsey Reports — brought his considerable scientific authority to bear in a candid, compassionate guide addressing the sexual development of young males. Boys and Sex presents an honest and scientifically grounded account of puberty, sexuality, and the emotional landscapes that boys navigate as they mature, drawing on the same rigorous research methodology that made the Kinsey studies foundational texts in the field of human sexuality. Written with clarity and an absence of moral judgment, the work argues that accurate information is the most powerful tool a young person can possess, challenging the taboos and misinformation that so often surrounded adolescent sexuality in the 20th century. Pomeroy's style is accessible yet authoritative, reflecting his lifelong conviction that open dialogue between adults and young people is not only healthy but essential. A companion volume to Girls and Sex, this title remains a testament to the progressive thinking of the Kinsey school — leaving the reader to consider just how much, or how little, the conversation has truly moved on.
