The effects of nonconsensual first experiences of sexual intercourse in women are understudied. This was investigated in 3,875 adult women of whom 6.7% reported "persuaded" first-sex and 0.8% reported forced first-sex. Compared with willing first-sex, both forced and "persuaded" first-sex occurred earlier, involved a greater age difference between partners, and were associated with more lifetime sexual partners and some measures of worse psychological well-being. In addition, "persuaded" first-sex was associated with worse general physical health. "Persuaded" first-sex and its relation to health need to be better understood, along with how culture influences women's experiences of first-sex.
非自愿的首次性行为对女性的影响尚未得到充分研究。本研究调查了 3875 名成年女性，其中 6.7%的女性报告称曾“被说服”发生初次性行为，0.8%的女性报告称曾遭受强迫发生初次性行为。与自愿发生初次性行为相比，强迫和“被说服”发生初次性行为的年龄更早，伴侣之间的年龄差异更大，且与更多的终身性伴侣和一些衡量心理健康状况更差的指标有关。此外，“被说服”发生初次性行为与更差的一般身体健康状况有关。需要更好地了解“被说服”发生初次性行为及其与健康的关系，以及文化如何影响女性对初次性行为的体验。
