abstract = {The Sexual Double Standard (SDS) is an instrument used to judge sexual behavior, in which
men are usually granted greater sexual freedom, while the same sexual behavior is condemned in
women. Culture can be a relevant variable for the SDS. Therefore, we have examined the measurement
invariance of the Sexual Double Standard Scale (SDSS) across the Spanish and Colombian populations,
comparing this phenomenon by country and gender. The scale comprises two factors: sexual freedom
and sexual shyness. The sample consisted of 1832 heterosexual adults (46.3% men, 53.7% women),
54.3% of whom were Spanish and 45.7% Colombian. Strong invariance was found. The reliability
values were good for country and gender. Men and women from both countries supported greater
freedom for themselves compared to the other gender. Furthermore, Spanish women, unlike their
Colombian counterparts, supported greater sexual shyness for men. Thus, what some authors have
labeled as a "reverse sexual double standard" seems to emerge.},
