abstract = {The sexual double standard (SDS) refers to the acceptance of different criteria to
assess the same sexual behavior in men and women. To date, the few studies that
have addressed the relationship between SDS and sexual satisfaction have obtained
inconclusive results. In addition, no study has analyzed sexual satisfaction in people
who maintain different forms of adherence to the SDS. This study establishes three
SDS typologies of adherence (man-favorable, woman-favorable, egalitarian) in two areas
of sexual behavior (sexual freedom and sexual shyness) to examine the predictive
capacity of personal variables (age, social dominance orientation, propensity for
sexual excitation/inhibition), interpersonal variables (relationship satisfaction) and social
variables (gender norms about sexual behaviors) in sexual satisfaction. A sample of
1194 heterosexual adults (51.1% men, 48.8% women) aged between 18 and 87 years
(M = 40.63; SD = 15.67), who had been in a relationship for more than 6 months, was
evaluated. In men, the highest sexual satisfaction levels were obtained in the egalitarian
typology in the sexual freedom area. In women, no significant differences were found
between the typologies of adherence to the SDS. Regression models showed that
relationship satisfaction was the main predictor of sexual satisfaction in all the typologies
in both men and women. In addition, the predictive relationship of personal variables
with sexual satisfaction varied according to gender and the SDS adherence type. The
results show the importance of studying sexual satisfaction by taking into account not
only the differences between men and women. Furthermore, it is essential to consider
other differences between people; for example, the difference that derives from the way
of psychologically internalizing attitude toward the SDS.},
