ABSTRACT

While researchers have thoroughly studied the who, what, and when of first sexual experiences, we know much less about how people construct, experience, and proceed (or not) with sexual pleasure in these experiences and beyond. To address this knowledge gap, the Global Advisory Board for Sexual Health and Wellbeing (GAB) coordinated a rapid review of published peer-reviewed research to determine what is currently known about sexual pleasure in first sexual experiences. We found 23 papers exploring this subject and its intersections with sexual health and sexual rights. The results reveal significant gaps in erotic education, gender equity, vulnerability and connection, and communication efficacy; and highlight important domains to consider in future research. Our findings draw out the key features of pleasurable first sexual experience(s), namely that individuals with the agency to formulate their definition and context of what pleasure means to them are more likely to experience pleasure at first sex. This finding points to promising ways to improve first sexual experiences through erotic skills building and through addressing knowledge gaps about having sex for the first time among disadvantaged groups.

摘要

虽然研究人员已经彻底研究了第一次性经历的人、事和时间，但我们对人们如何在这些经历中及其他经历中构建、体验和进行（或不）性快感知之甚少。为了解决这一知识差距，全球性健康与福祉咨询委员会 (GAB) 协调了对已发表的同行评审研究的快速审查，以确定目前对第一次性经历中的性快感的了解。我们找到了 23 篇探讨这个主题及其与性健康和性权利交叉点的论文。结果显示在色情教育、性别平等、脆弱性和联系以及沟通效率方面存在重大差距；并强调在未来研究中要考虑的重要领域。我们的研究结果得出了令人愉快的第一次性经历的关键特征，也就是说，有能力制定他们的定义和快乐对他们意味着什么的背景的人更有可能在第一次性行为时体验到快乐。这一发现指出了通过培养色情技能和解决弱势群体关于首次发生性行为的知识差距来改善第一次性行为的有希望的方法。
