Frigid is? Know about sexual dysfunction in women

 

Frigid is an ancient term that emerged in the mid-20th century to refer to disorders of sexual arousal experienced by women. Now, the term frigid women is no longer used because it is considered to demean women

 

According to experts, frigidity is defined as a state of sexual dysfunction in women, namely an inability of the body to sexual erotic stimulation and not wanting to arouse sexual desire again.

 

Frigid can also be interpreted as sexual dysfunction in women which can be in the form of failure to respond to sexual stimulation, reluctance to have sexual intercourse, failure to achieve orgasm during sexual intercourse (anorgasmia), or pain in intercourse or sexual activity.

 

The word "frigid-" comes from the Latin "frigidus" which means cold, and the suffix "-ity" comes from the Latin "-itas" which means condition or state. During the mid-twentieth century, women who experienced sexual frigidity were also referred to as 'cold' women.

 

This mention builds the public's view that women with conditions of sexual dysfunction or frigid are the ones to blame for all harmony problems that may occur between women and their partners.

 

This term also builds the assumption that frigid women have an unpleasant character, and are even responsible for a failed marriage or a partner's infidelity. In fact, the condition of the male partner is also very likely to play a role in the occurrence of sexual dysfunction experienced by women.
