Morphology
The phrase is compositionally built from 'sexual' (pertaining to sex) and 'pleasure' (enjoyment), so its meaning—pleasure derived from sexual activities—is directly derivable from the constituents. This is a literal, cross-linguistically common combination and would be immediately understandable to a B1 learner who knows both words.
Etymology
Sexual pleasure is a plain combination: sexual refers to sex or sexual activity and pleasure means a good, enjoyable feeling. So the phrase became the common way to say 'enjoyment or satisfaction from sexual activity'.
