Abstracts
Objective: to study sexual desire, satisfaction, and orgasm in women who have sex with men (WSM) and women who have sex with women (WSW), as a function of the practices used and the mutuality of the sexual activity. Design and Method: 1000 women (WSM=878, WSW=122) completed a selfreport online questionnaire regarding sexual desire, sexual practices, and frequency of solitary and partnered orgasms. Results: There was no difference between the two groups on the frequency of orgasm during solitary sex. Compared to WSM, WSW reported having more sexual desire, more mutual and varied partnered sex, and more frequent orgasms during partnered sex. Conclusions: Our results suggest that diminished desire in some WSM may be related to the sexual practices themselves and not to a general inability to enjoy sex.
