These aspects are subject to learning and cultural factors, as past experiences play an important role in shaping expectations regarding sexual response in women. ■ Female Sexual Response Cycle ■ ■ Over the past 45 years, several models have been proposed to aid in the understanding of the female sexual response cycle. These models provide a conceptual framework of the sequence of physiological events and psychological processes that comprise normal sexual response for most 79 71966_07CH_pgs_077-094_Zaslau.indd 79 8/31/10 9:34 AM 80 Chapter 7 women.
