Analysis of Sexual Behavior Acceptance In Poland

Abstract

Current investigations into post-communist Polish sexual behavior acceptance levels indicate that men show a decidedly higher concern for their partner's sexual satisfaction than women do, and that women are more sensitive than previously thought to smells and pre-or-gasmic activities. Research was conducted with a 200-person married population (25–40 years old) in Wroclaw, Poland. The Sexual Stimuli Scale developed by Z. Lew-Starowicz (1988) was the basic testing method. The results of this investigation also indicate that men are more active and women relatively passive, in compliance with social mores. Men are more open than women to various kinds of stimulation and forms of sexual contact, activity directed not only to achieving personal pleasure but also including various kinds of caresses, manual and oral, leading to the woman's sexual satisfaction.
