Answer to Question 1

The diagnostic criteria for female or male orgasmic disorder are very similar. Male orgasmic disorder (delayed ejaculation) is the delay of or inability to achieve orgasm despite adequate sexual stimulation (APA, 2000). This disorder is not as common as premature ejaculation. Some men might consider delayed ejaculation to be an advantage as it could increase the sexual pleasure of a partner. In these cases, a diagnosis may not be warranted because there would not be any distress or functional impairment. Female orgasmic disorder (or anorgasmia) is also defined as persistent and recurrent delay or absence of orgasm following the normal excitement phase. It is a common complaint among women. Before making a diagnosis, it is necessary to consider age, adequacy of sexual stimulation, and sexual experience. Premature ejaculation (rapid ejaculation) is the most common male dysfunction. It is consistent ejaculation with minimal sexual stimulation before, immediately upon, or shortly after penetration and before the person wishes it (APA, 2000).
