人们很少知道异性伴侣对他们目前的性行为频率的满意程度,以及这在多大程度上预测了总体的性生活和关系满意度。一项以人口为基础的调查对4,290名男性和4,366名女性进行了调查,年龄在16岁到之间的澳大利亚人来自不同的社会人口背景,其中3,240名男性和3,304名女性处于正常的异性关系中。只有46%的男性和58%的女性对自己目前的性生活频率感到满意。不满意的男性绝大多数想要更频繁的性行为;在不满意的女性中,只有三分之二的人想要更频繁的性行为。年龄是一个重要的因素,但只对男性来说,35-44岁的人往往最不满意。对性生活频率不满意的男性和女性也更有可能表现出总体上较低的性满意度和关系满意度。作者的发现不仅强调了期望的性行为频率是满意度的主要因素,还揭示了重要的性别和其他社会人口统计学差异,研究人员和治疗师需要考虑这些差异,以寻求了解和提高异性伴侣的性生活和关系满意度。其他问题,如性生活的时间长短和从事的实践,也可能是相关的,特别是对女性来说。
Little is known of the extent to which heterosexual couples are satisfied with their current frequency of sex and the degree to which this predicts overall sexual and relationship satisfaction. A population-based survey of 4,290 men and 4,366 women was conducted among Australians aged 16 to 64 years from a range of sociodemographic backgrounds, of whom 3,240 men and 3,304 women were in regular heterosexual relationships. Only 46% of men and 58% of women were satisfied with their current frequency of sex. Dissatisfied men were overwhelmingly likely to desire sex more frequently; among dissatisfied women, only two thirds wanted sex more frequently. Age was a significant factor but only for men, with those aged 35–44 years tending to be least satisfied. Men and women who were dissatisfied with their frequency of sex were also more likely to express overall lower sexual and relationship satisfaction. The authors’ findings not only highlight desired frequency of sex as a major factor in satisfaction, but also reveal important gender and other sociodemographic differences that need to be taken into account by researchers and therapists seeking to understand and improve sexual and relationship satisfaction among heterosexual couples. Other issues such as length of time spent having sex and practices engaged in may also be relevant, particularly for women.
