Preferred term

sex in established relationships  

Definition

  • Most men and women will, at one point in their lives, enter a romantic relationship with someone. Sexuality often plays a part in bringing couples together (e.g., through the experience of sexual attraction), and for most it will continue to play a role after dating and courtship end and they enter a committed, established relationship.
