An Analysis of Sexual Communication and an Examination of Sexual Communication Within the Javanese Society
Abstract
Married couples' communication skills have a significant impact on sexual satisfaction and relationships. It is inconceivable if a husband and wife do not have communication skills, silence each other without communication, and then live together in one household for an extended period. Of course, it was very torturous. The purpose of this study is to understand and reconstruct the dialectical process of couple relationships that have developed into intimate relationships in sexual communication. Couples have adjustment mechanisms in building relationships in sexual communication. The critical theory that guides this research is the Relational Dialectic Theory of Baxter and Montgomery. This research uses experimental techniques to determine the extent, degree, problem, or behavior of a particular phenomenon, the initial idea (or hunch) about the phenomenon is generated, and to examine whether a broader study of this phenomenon can be conducted. This phenomenological research is accompanied by Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis (AFI) with a qualitative approach. The results of this study highlight the importance of communication in conveying sexual expression to partners. Furthermore, it shows that sexual expression is a common phenomenon, and that couples' struggles in developing intense relationships can result in marital satisfaction. Finally, strategies to improve marriage are explored. Communication implications are clearly described, such as producing recommendations for couples towards marital satisfaction.
