Abstract

Background: Sex life is a critical issue in maintaining good general health and motives. Disclosure of self-sexual willing greatly varies from one couple to another. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate whether the link between having good sexual communication with your spouse and having good sexual pleasure in your marriage. We developed an online questionnaire that was disseminated through social media to be self-filled as a method with complete privacy. It was written in English and also translated into an Arabic form to be easily understood whatever their educational background is. This questionnaire covered sexual activity, communication, and satisfaction. Results: The majority of participants were between the ages of 30-39y (73.8%). In addition, the majority of them had a university degree (97.8%). Eighty-four percent of them were city dwellers, and the majority of them had been married for six to ten years (46.9%). The majority of individuals were contented with their current sexual situation (63.1 %). Eighty six% of women who were sexually happy said that their husbands ensured they had orgasm. Sixty-four% of those who were pleased stated it was easy to talk about their sexual wants and dreams with others. The pleased group had a confidence in their bodies that was 76.7%. Conclusion: In intimate partnerships, better sexual communication is linked to more sexual pleasure. Increasing the sexual happiness of women in marriage requires encouraging them to talk openly about their sexual needs, preferences, concerns, and dreams with their partners.
