The current research aims to (1) investigate \"perceived partner orgasm pursuit\" (i.e., the participant's perception that her partner is pursuing her orgasm) as a novel mechanism to explain this difference in orgasm expectations, and (2) demonstrate that manipulating the interpersonal sexual script with a male partner to include sufficient clitoral stimulation can increase orgasm expectations when women have sex with men. In Study 1, we found that bisexual or pansexual women (N = 457) partnered with a woman in a hypothetical scenario expected greater clitoral stimulation, partner pursuit of her orgasm, and likelihood of orgasm than those partnered with a man. In Study 2, bisexual or pansexual women (N = 362) who were partnered with a man in a hypothetical scenario that specified (1) clitoral stimulation or (2) opportunity to orgasm via her most reliable route expected her partner to pursue her orgasm and expected orgasm, at similar rates to women who were partnered with a woman whose sexual behavior was unspecified. On the contrary, women partnered with a man in a hypothetical scenario which specified vaginal intercourse only expected the lowest likelihood of orgasm. In both studies, condition predicted expected clitoral stimulation, which predicted perceived partner orgasm pursuit, which predicted orgasm expectations. This research suggests that sexual scripts explain differences in orgasm expectations by partner gender, and these expectations can be changed by shifting the sexual script at the interpersonal level to include sufficient opportunity for (and pursuit of) women's orgasm via clitoral stimulation. Findings are discussed in the context of contributors to and solutions for the orgasm gap.","PeriodicalId":8327,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Sexual Behavior","volume":"232 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144311366","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

European countries that criminalized the purchase of physical sexual services often explicitly aim to change the public's normative evaluation of prostitution. In the same logic, some expect that legalization or regulation of prostitution would \"normalize\" prostitution. We tested these conjectures empirically with the help of a multi-case study. We estimate the normative effect of six European cases of national legislative changes in Europe, thus not only diversifying the legal change but also bringing in understudied cases. Legal changes include the criminalization of the purchase of sexual services according to the so-called \"Nordic model\" (Sweden, Norway, and France), a passage to a regulated regime (the Netherlands), and the decriminalization of selling sex (Slovenia and Spain). The evolution of the normative acceptance of prostitution was measured with European Values Study and World Values Study data collected from the 1990s until 2008. The effects were modeled through a difference-in-differences approach combined with a matching procedure. The results indicated that criminalization indeed decreased the public's acceptance of the phenomenon of prostitution. At the same time, decriminalization has effects in both directions: In Spain, norms have become more liberal, while in Slovenia, they have become more judgmental. This more judgmental shift also occurred after the regulatory turn in the Netherlands. Factors related to the specific dynamic of the public debate around the law change probably drive these contextual differences.","PeriodicalId":8327,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Sexual Behavior","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144309482","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They completed a questionnaire on asexual identification, romantic relationships, sexual behaviors, and community engagement. The results revealed an autism prevalence rate of 6.9% among individuals on the asexual spectrum, which is higher than the prevalence rate in general populations. Autistic individuals had a stronger identification with their sexual orientation than non-autistic counterparts. They were also more likely to disclose their asexual identity, be in a partnered relationship with others on the asexual or aromantic spectrum, and participate in online LGBTQ communities. The results emphasize the necessity for heightened awareness and understanding of the intersection between autism and asexuality among healthcare professionals, social service providers, and educators. The findings have significant implications for inclusive and affirming sexuality education for individuals on the autism spectrum. Such education is crucial in promoting self-acceptance and empowering them to have greater control over their (a)sexual journeys.","PeriodicalId":8327,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Sexual Behavior","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144293176","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sex addiction may co-occur with other psychiatric conditions, including suicide risk, but few studies have explored such co-occurrences in depth, and these studies were based on small samples. A total of 136 patients referred to the Nantes University Hospital for sex addiction between 2013 and 2022 were included. Sex addiction was diagnosed using Goodman's scale for the diagnosis of behavioral addictions. Suicide risk was assessed using the suicidality module of the MINI 5.0. A multivariate logistic regression model was used to identify factors associated with the presence of suicide risk. Suicide risk was detected among 46% of patients. Four variables were found to be associated with suicide risk: a higher proportion of relatives aware of the sex addiction, a higher frequency of anxiety disorders, a higher frequency of mood disorders and a lower level of self-directedness. The frequency of suicide risk in patients with behavioral addictions is greater than that reported in previous studies. Mood and anxiety disorders are two factors that are often found to be associated with suicide risk among individuals with sex addiction, while awareness of sex addiction by relatives and a low level of self-directedness are two factors that have not been previously identified. In fact, it may be relevant to improve the self-directedness dimension through psychotherapies and to consider the inclusion of the patient's partner in the treatment.","PeriodicalId":8327,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Sexual Behavior","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144282285","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although several approaches to measuring sexual health and sexual well-being in this population have been recently proposed, their conceptual framework is unclear or missing. Following the gerontological successful aging paradigm that focuses on dynamic adaptive processes, we constructed and tested a new measure intended to assess positive sexual aging. Using two probability-based samples of partnered women and men aged 65+ years (n = 727) from Norway and Croatia, we tested dimensionality, measurement invariance, associations with other relevant constructs, and network-of-items topology of a brief 4-item measure. This new measure-the Brief Positive Sexual Aging Scale (BIPSAS)-was invariant across country and age, but not gender. Marked gender differences were also found in the measure's network-of-items topology. Scores on the measure were significantly and meaningfully related to indicators of sexual communication and activity, relationship and life satisfaction, and psychological health. The opportunities for sexual expression facet had the highest overall centrality in the BIPSAS network, echoing its heightened importance for older people's sexuality. With a caveat that positive sexual aging in older women and men may not be directly comparable, this psychometrically sound and brief measure is suitable for use in a wide range of studies focusing on health, well-being, and sexuality among older partnered adults.","PeriodicalId":8327,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Sexual Behavior","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144257277","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

All forms of sexual abuse were more strongly related to CSB in younger participants, in cisgender men, and in single participants. Although CSA was related to higher CSB similarly across all sexual orientations, AASA and CSA + AASA were more strongly related to CSB among gay or lesbian, asexual, and queer or pansexual participants than among those reporting being heterosexual, homo- or heteroflexible, and another sexual orientation. Finally, the associations between sexual abuse and CSB were different across countries, with a complex pattern of findings.

We report the case of G, a 17-year-old male high school student with Trisomy 21 syndrome and moderate intellectual disability. G's parents requested an intervention to help their son acquire better adaptive sexual behavior skills-regarding appropriate management of masturbation, distinguishing between a public and a private place, managing aggression, and oppositional behavior-to avoid the risk of school exclusion and to improve his quality of sexual, emotional, and social life. Data on adaptive and maladaptive behaviors were collected using the Vineland-II and on sexual knowledge and behavior using the Sexual Knowledge and Behavior Assessment Tool. Both interviews were administered at the beginning (t1) and end (t2) of treatment. The Vineland-II was also administered 3 months after treatment (t3). The main outcomes of this case study concerned: (1) public/private management; (2) anger and aggression management; and (3) management of an autonomous masturbation path. Comparing the results of the pre- (t0) and post-treatment (t2) interviews and the Vineland-II administration at follow-up (t2), a significant reduction in G's maladaptive sexual behavior was observed. The EEPI, when carried out from a preventive perspective, was effective in the case of an adolescent with intellectual disability. The advantages and disadvantages of the EEPI model are discussed by comparing it with other pharmacological and behavioral treatments.","PeriodicalId":8327,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Sexual Behavior","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144224157","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
