| 1976 | The Hite Report: A Nationwide Study of Female Sexuality. Based on surveys of 1,844 women, Hite, the director of the Feminist Sexuality Project (1972-1978), hypothesizes on the current state of sexuality for women in a best-selling, though controversial, study; many fault her methodology and conclusions. The volume would be followed by the additional studies The Hite Report on Male Sexuality (1981), Women and Love (1987), and The Hite Report on the Family (1995). |
