Answer: 4
Explanation: According to the DSM-5, a sexual dysfunction that occurs regardless of partner, situation, or type of stimulation is considered generalized. A situational sexual dysfunction occurs only in specific circumstances or with a specific partner. A lifelong sexual dysfunction occurs from the beginning of sexual experiences. An acquired sexual dysfunction develops after normal sexual experiences began.
