Abstract(s)
As práticas BDSM/Kinky têm uma prevalência considerável na população e uma das principais motivações para o envolvimento nestas é a satisfação sexual. Sabe-se que existe uma associação positiva entre satisfação sexual, saúde mental e práticas kinky, mas desconhece-se a diferença desta entre papéis kinky e segundo características sociodemográficas. Este estudo pretende investigar pelo método quantitativo a possível relação entre práticas kinky e satisfação sexual através da caracterização da satisfação sexual em adultos portugueses com fantasias e atividades kinky. Para isso, comparou-se a satisfação sexual entre diversos grupos da amostra
constituída por 497 indivíduos maiores de idade e de nacionalidade portuguesa. Os dados foram recolhidos por um questionário online composto pelas escalas IFAKBDSM, NSSS-S e GMSEX, e por questões sociodemográficas. Verificou-se uma correlação positiva entre satisfação sexual e práticas BDSM/Kinky, práticas masoquistas por oposição a sádicas, e estatuto relacional. Embora as práticas kinky desempenhem um papel na satisfação sexual, esta no geral não difere significativamente consoante o tipo de fantasia ou atividade sexual kinky, nem segundo a identidade de género e o nível de escolaridade. O que indica que vários fatores influenciam a satisfação sexual e que certamente há aspetos mais relevantes como a conexão emocional e a confiança entre os parceiros.
BDSM/Kinky practices have a considerable prevalence in the population and one of the main motivations for engaging in them is sexual satisfaction. It is known that there is a positive association between sexual satisfaction, mental health and kinky practices, but the difference between kinky roles and sociodemographic characteristics is unknown. This study aims to investigate, using the quantitative method, the possible relationship between kinky practices and sexual satisfaction by characterizing sexual satisfaction in Portuguese adults with kinky fantasies and activities. To this end, sexual satisfaction was compared between different groups in the sample consisting of 497 individuals of legal age and Portuguese nationality. Data were collected using an online questionnaire composed of the IFAKBDSM, NSSS-S and GMSEX scales, and sociodemographic questions. There was a positive correlation between sexual satisfaction and BDSM/Kinky practices, masochistic practices as opposed to sadistic, and relational status. Although kinky practices play a role in sexual satisfaction, it generally does not differ significantly depending on the type of kinky sexual fantasy or activity, nor according to gender identity and education level. This indicates that several factors influence sexual satisfaction and that there are certainly more relevant aspects such as emotional connection and trust between partners.
