Dangers of Promoting a new "disorder" of "Female Sexual Dysfunction":

Implies that there is a "normal" sexual function

Emphasizing sexual physiology and performance puts psychological and social aspects on the sidelines

Gives women more reasons to feel inadequate and insecure

Overemphasizes medical causes and solutions

Reinforces narrow definitions of sexuality and ignores diversity

Discourages or discredits styles of sexuality that don’t focus on genital arousal and orgasm

Gives pharmaceutical companies impetus to invent and promote ‘magic bullet’ treatments

Ignores the importance of comprehensive sex education

Causes insurance companies to ignore the value of counseling

Causes the media to minimize the importance of social factors in sexual satisfaction and dissatisfaction

Distracts from the role of sexism, sexual violence and fear in sexual problems
