Jennifer,unlike her husband Paul,prefers to alternate periods of high sexual activity with periods of very little sexual activity.This best illustrates gender differences in

A) sexual dysfunctions.
B) erotic plasticity.
C) refractory periods.
D) paraphilias.

Erotic plasticity refers to the degree to which an individual's sex drive can be shaped or molded by social, cultural, and situational factors. Studies have shown that women tend to have higher levels of erotic plasticity than men, which could explain why Jennifer prefers to alternate between periods of high and low sexual activity, while her husband, who may have lower levels of erotic plasticity, does not. This illustrates a gender difference in sexual behavior. The other answer choices do not accurately describe the scenario given.
