Resumo(s)
Research on sexual satisfaction in Portugal is still limited; what exists,
however, highlights barriers preventing optimal realisation of this dimension of sexuality and sexual health. Physical and relational barriers have
been consistently evidenced, whereas social and cultural barriers have
been less studied. Using focus groups, we aimed to explore perceptions of
Portuguese college students (N = 47) about sexual satisfaction – more
specifically, about gender differences and about how sexual gender roles
and stereotypes and the Sexual Double Standard may influence sexual
satisfaction. We found that sexual satisfaction is perceived to be suboptimal, especially for women in casual sexual relationships, and that
the differences are attributed by both male and female to the constraints
imposed by sexual gender roles, sexual gender stereotypes, and the
sexual double standard. Deconstructing these socio-sexual beliefs is
needed in order to achieve a higher, egalitarian level of sexual satisfaction
and to promote sexual health.
