The purpose of this study was to investigate the Sexual Satisfaction of married men and women in city family of Korea. The scale of this study was based on ISS(Index of Sexual Satisfaction) developed by Hudson(1981). But it is reconstructed to 21 items instead of Hudson`s 25 items after conducting of Cronbach`s α test in pretest. The main findings of this study were summarized as follows: First, the mean score of married women was 3.48(SD=0.47) and that of married men was 3.50(SD=0.47) in 5 grade Likert scale, which meant married men and women were satisfied with their sexual satisfaction a little upper than half score(3.0). These score reflect the conservatism of Korean society, especially in sexuality issue. It revealed that men still take initiative in sexuality. The result of t-test indicated that there were no significant differences between the sexual satisfaction of married men and women. Second, in case of married women, there were significant differences in demographic variables such as education level, type of marriage and income, but there were no significant differences in demographic variables such as age, period of marriage, number of children, family type, job and health. In case of married men, there were significant differences in demographic variables such as age, education level of spouse, type of marriage, period of marriage, number of children and health. But there were no significant differences in demographic variables such as his own education level, age, family type, job, and income.
