Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Lynn is likely experiencing vaginismus, a condition in which the vaginal muscles involuntarily contract, making penetration difficult or impossible. Dave's adequate erection suggests that he does not have erectile dysfunction (B) and there is no mention of Dave having difficulty achieving orgasm (D). A sexual aversion disorder (A) may also be a possibility, but given the specific symptom of difficulty with penetration, vaginismus is the most likely cause of their difficulties.
