Sexual satisfaction is vital in relationships, but differing expectations can create challenges. Certified sex therapist Mark Goldberg discusses two key approaches: Good Enough S*x and Expansive S*x. Understanding these can enhance intimacy and address sexual dysfunction.

Good Enough Sex

This approach emphasizes routine and predictability. Individuals who prefer good enough sex find comfort in familiar experiences, leading to reliability and efficiency in intimacy. While this can strengthen a couple’s bond over time, it may also lead to sexual stagnation, boredom, and decreased arousal if variety is lacking.

Expansive Sex

In contrast, expansive sex involves exploration and novelty. Those with an expansive approach seek new experiences to maintain excitement and psychological engagement. While this can enhance pleasure and connection, it may also create pressure, especially if one partner struggles to keep up with evolving desires. This pressure can contribute to performance anxiety and even erectile dysfunction.
