Sexual Dysfunction
Many couples have difficulty in establishing clear communication regarding their sexuality. Often, fears of intimacy, fears of rejection, and a clash of sexual value systems are involved in the problem.
A lack of sexual knowledge or misinformation about sexual functioning exists among many people. Couples often describe real and perceived differences in “sex drives”. When one partner’s interest seriously differs from the others, the discrepancy may be a symptom of a more specific difficulty, such as orgasmic dysfunction, or it may be stated as a general lack of interest in sex.
