Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hypoactive sexual desire is a sexual dysfunction characterized by a lack or absence of sexual fantasies or desire for sexual activity. In this scenario, although Matt and Fran still love each other, Matt has lost his desire for sex with Fran, indicating hypoactive sexual desire. A is incorrect because generalized arousal disorder refers to a generalized difficulty in becoming sexually aroused, which is not specifically the case here. C is incorrect because sexual disinhibition refers to a condition where an individual displays sexually inappropriate behavior. D is incorrect because sexual rejection disorder is not a recognized diagnosis.
