The present study investigated the ways trans masculine and nonbinary individuals describe aspects of their sexual satisfaction. Sexual satisfaction refers to an individual's subjective evaluation of their sexual experiences, and is influenced by relational, contextual, and personal experiences. Prior research with sexual satisfaction among trans individuals utilized quantitative measures, restricting the ability for respondents to describe trans-related aspects. Further, the pervasive focus on the effects of medical transition on binary trans individuals' experiences in prior research limits our understanding of those who do not desire a medical transition or live outside of the gender binary. Participants represented a community sample of 358 trans masculine and nonbinary individuals who responded to the question: "In what ways are you satisfied with your sex life?" Thematic analysis revealed eight overarching themes that represented two categories: universal and trans-related. Discussion focuses on the ways in which clinicians and researchers can utilize the current findings to improve the sexual satisfaction of trans masculine and nonbinary individuals.
本研究调查了跨性别男性和非二元性别个体描述其性满足感的方式。性满足感是指个体对其性体验的主观评价，受到关系、情境和个人经历的影响。先前关于跨性别者性满足感的研究使用了定量测量方法，限制了受访者描述与跨性别相关方面的能力。此外，先前研究普遍关注医学转变对二元跨性别者经历的影响，限制了我们对那些不希望进行医学转变或生活在性别二元之外的人的理解。参与者代表了一个社区样本，共 358 名跨性别男性和非二元性别个体，他们回答了这个问题：“你在哪些方面对自己的性生活感到满意？”主题分析揭示了代表两个类别的八个总体主题：普遍和与跨性别相关的主题。讨论的重点是临床医生和研究人员如何利用当前的研究结果来提高跨性别男性和非二元性别个体的性满足感。
