Landscape of Relationships: Sexual Scripts
What are sexual scripts?
In 1986, researchers William Simon and John H. Gagnon defined sexual scripts as the cultural and societally approved norms that a person accesses, agrees upon, and activates through a sexual socialization process. These sexual scripts are specific to the culture a person is socialized in, which tell them what behaviors, thoughts, emotions are or are not acceptable. People carry these scripts with them into sexual situations and they tell them how to respond. Simon and Gagnon theorized that sexual scripts have three different categories, including socio-cultural, interpersonal, and intrapsychic:
Examples of cultural sexual scripts:
Dating culture
Premarital sex
Monogamy
Dominance and submission
Heteronormative
What else?
Examples of interpersonal sexual scripts:
Flirting/sexual negotiation
Consent/sexual assault
Top/Bottom
What else?
Examples of intrapsychic sexual scripts:
Turn ons
Fantasy
Kinks and fetishes
Pleasure
Sexual Desire
What else?
Quote from Simon & Gagnon (1986)
In the most pragmatic sense, sexual scripts must solve two problems. The first of these is gaining permission from the self to engage in desired forms of sexual behavior. The second problem is that of access to the experiences that the desired behavior is expected to generate.
