The current research explores the relationship between Sexual Double Standard (SDS) endorsement and women's sexual health and attitudes. Women ( = 705) completed an SDS endorsement scale, and then answered a variety of questions in three main categories of outcome variables: sexual comfort, sexual reputation, and sexual health. Results suggest that women's SDS endorsement was not related to women's sexual comfort. Further, SDS endorsement was slightly positively related to how concerned women were about their sexual reputation. Regarding sexual health, SDS endorsement was related to a shorter timespan since women's last OBGYN screening, and unrelated to women's discomfort discussing birth control with their OBGYN. Results suggest there is much more to explore in targeted studies on the relationship of SDS endorsement to women's perceptions of their sexual reputations and their interactions with OBGYNs with respect to the SDS. Previous and related research is discussed, along with implications of the current research.
当前的研究探讨了性双重标准(SDS)认同与女性性健康及态度之间的关系。705名女性完成了SDS认同量表,然后回答了结果变量三大主要类别中的各种问题:性舒适度、性声誉和性健康。结果表明,女性的SDS认同与女性的性舒适度无关。此外,SDS认同与女性对自身性声誉的关注程度略呈正相关。关于性健康,SDS认同与女性上次妇产科检查后的时间跨度较短有关,与女性在与妇产科医生讨论避孕问题时的不适感无关。结果表明,在关于SDS认同与女性对自身性声誉的认知以及她们在SDS方面与妇产科医生互动关系的针对性研究中,还有很多有待探索的地方。文中讨论了先前的相关研究以及当前研究的意义。
