La autoestima en la satisfacción sexual de parejas de adultos jóvenes.

Abstract

The present monograph developed from a qualitative approach with a descriptive cross-sectional design, aimed to analyze the influence that self-esteem has on sexual satisfaction within the couple relationship. The sample was made up of three heterosexual couples from the city of San José de Cúcuta with ages ranging from 20 to 30 years old. To collect the information, a semi-structured interview was used based on three categories: relationship of couple, self-esteem and sexual satisfaction. Among the resultsobtained, aspects related to temperament and physical appearance could be evidenced as regards self-esteem. On the other hand, sexual satisfaction was strongly influenced by the search for pleasure and the exploration of ways to obtain it.
