is no protection against ovarian cancer
Cancer is arguably the second most fear-inspiring
word in the English language, behind shark. One out of three

and ovarian cancer. According to statistical data one out of
every 50 women in the United States will develop ovarian cancer.

in American society. Kinsey linked man’s sexuality to animal
sexuality, and although some were appalled, people became more
educated on a topic that had been taboo. [More]
