The author of the book, Thomas Maier, also writes that this extravagant pair of scientists have studied every aspect of sexuality:
“Despite the belief at the time that men are the stronger sex and that sexual intercourse gives them more pleasure, Masters and Johnson have clinically proven that women’s feelings during sex are much more pronounced and varied.
They made other “surprising discoveries”: even older people love intercourse and, who would have thought it, women can achieve multiple orgasms in a row. “
The couple became the subject of their own research when Masters rather non-romantically suggested that Johnson had sexual intercourse to help them study “the response to heightened sexual tension.”
She agreed, and so these experiments continued, even though Masters was a married man.
“He said he didn’t really want to have sex with Master, but he didn’t want to lose his job either,” Myers writes.
“In today’s world, this situation would certainly be considered sexual abuse.”
Only after 14 years, when Johnson also found his heart, Masters decided to divorce his wife and marry an assistant. Masters indicated that it was not jealousy that prompted him to take this step. He simply understood that by marrying Johnson, the joint quest could continue for the rest of his life, or at least until he received the Nobel Prize.
The two scientists also started couples sex therapy. They watched people having sex for many years and drew conclusions. The therapy lasted two weeks and was not a cheap pleasure: the couple had to part ways with more than $ 10,000 for this help.
