Document Summary

Sex dysfunction: most prevalent class of disorder in us. By hiding it, it can make it worse. Men and women experience parallel versions of these disorders. Females = 43: pain associated with sex, dysfunction in the sexual response cycle: Orgasm phase: must be perceived as distressing. Deviance is hard to define in this because it does vary. Prevalence of sex disorders: ex: climaxing too early, not interested in sex. Sexual response cycle: desire phase- sexual urges occur in response to sexual cues or fantasies, arousal stage- men get hard and women are getting slippery , plateau phase- brief period occurs before orgasm. No disorders in this phase: orgasm phase. In males, feelings of the inevitability of ejaculation, followed by ejaculation. In females, contractions of the walls of the lower third of the vagina: women don"t have an inevitability like men do, resolution phase- decrease in arousal occurs after orgasm (particularly in men)
