Sexual communication discrepancies (SCD) are associated with numerous sexual outcomes (e.g., sexual satisfaction and intimacy), with past findings suggesting that these benefits increase as SCD scores increase. However, sexual scripts theory suggests that individuals develop their own gendered scripts, with females and males experiencing sexual communication differently. Therefore, this study examined the association between SCD and sexual satisfaction. The results of a cross-sectional survey of individuals in sexually active romantic relationships (N = 496) revealed a significant curvilinear relationship between SCD and sexual satisfaction within the sexual issues factor of SCD among male participants. The implications of this study are discussed in the context of sexual communication research and clinical settings.

性沟通差异 (SCD) 与许多性结果（例如性满意度和亲密感）相关，过去的研究结果表明，这些益处随着 SCD 分数的增加而增加。然而，性脚本理论表明，个体会发展自己的性别脚本，女性和男性经历性交流的方式不同。因此，本研究探讨了 SCD 与性满意度之间的关联。对性活跃的浪漫关系中的个体进行横断面调查的结果（N = 496）揭示了男性参与者中 SCD 性问题因素中 SCD 与性满意度之间存在显着的曲线关系。这项研究的意义是在性沟通研究和临床环境的背景下讨论的。
