Resumo

The main objective of the present theoretical study was to analyze the relation of sexual satisfaction with variables associated with it in adults with same-sex partners. A systematic review of published research that met the following inclusion criteria was carried out: (a) evaluated sexual satisfaction through standardized self-reports or ad hoc questions, (b) included samples of adults who maintained a samesex relationship, and (c) related sexual satisfaction with personal, interpersonal, social or ideological-cultural variables. After a bibliographic search through various electronic databases, and once a selection process has been carried out, the main results of 40 scientific articles published between 1992 and 2017 are presented. As a most relevant result it should be noted that sexual satisfaction was associated with variables of each of the dimensions indicated. More associations are revealed with personal and interpersonal variables, and to a lesser extent with social and cultural variables. The importance of future research on sexual satisfaction in people with same-sex couple from the perspective of consolidated theoretical models is discussed, as well as the need for psychometric studies in the LGBTI population.
