Identification of Sexual Behaviour of Feminist Men Who Have Sex with Woman in Indonesia

As a patriarchal country with dominant religious and cultural values, it is not easy to accept feminism in Indonesia. However, the idea has been growing and gaining acceptance in Indonesia for the past couple of years, influenced by media and technology. Feminism is not only embraced by women but also by men, which may affect men’s sexual behaviour with their partners. Therefore, we conducted a cross-sectional study with an online data survey by distributing questionnaires involving 335 participants. Our pilot study reported the sexual behaviours of (heterosexual feminist) in Indonesia compared to (non-feminist) men. Despite some indifferent behaviour, feminist men tend to ensure the satisfaction of their female partners as a form of respect for their partners. Some sexual behaviours that were significantly different between heterosexual feminist and non-feminist men always began with foreplay duration of foreplay (average) asking for the position (p = 0.001), and asking if the partner was satisfied or not. This study implies that heterosexual feminist men exhibit tremendous respect toward women and can contribute to more equitable and fulfilling relationships, fostering mutual respect and more profound emotional connection.

Abstract

As a patriarchal country with dominant religious and cultural values, it is not easy to accept feminism in Indonesia. However, the idea has been growing and gaining acceptance in Indonesia for the past couple of years, influenced by media and technology. Feminism is not only embraced by women but also by men, which may affect men’s sexual behaviour with their partners. Therefore, we conducted a cross-sectional study with an online data survey by distributing questionnaires involving 335 participants. Our pilot study reported the sexual behaviours of (heterosexual feminist) in Indonesia compared to (non-feminist) men. Despite some indifferent behaviour, feminist men tend to ensure the satisfaction of their female partners as a form of respect for their partners. Some sexual behaviours that were significantly different between heterosexual feminist and non-feminist men always began with foreplay duration of foreplay (average) asking for the position (p = 0.001), and asking if the partner was satisfied or not. This study implies that heterosexual feminist men exhibit tremendous respect toward women and can contribute to more equitable and fulfilling relationships, fostering mutual respect and more profound emotional connection.
