ABSTRACT
This chapter strongly advocates for changing the traditional dialogue about women, men, couples, and sexuality. Rather than sex being a win—lose battleground, this approach advocates a respectful, trusting equitable relationship. As adults, especially in a married or partnered relationship, there are many more sexual similarities than differences between women and men. The woman is a first-class sexual person; female sexuality is not inferior to male sexuality. The relationship thrives when they treat each other as intimate and erotic friends. The couple adopts the Good Enough Sex (GES) model which defines sexuality as sensual, playful, and erotic touch in addition to intercourse. Intimate, interactive pleasure-oriented couple sexuality is much healthier than the traditional male individual sex performance model.
