Identify Leonore Tiefer's criticism of Masters and Johnson's model
What will be an ideal response?
Tiefer suggests that Masters and Johnson's model focuses exclusively on adequate genital functioning, leaving out emotionality, sensuality, cultural differences, power issues, and communication, which she believes are important components of sexual response. Women complain of desire and arousal issues and other difficulties in emotionality, sensitivity, or connectedness (Tiefer, 2001).
