“性别”一词已成为艾滋病毒/艾滋病相关词汇和概念理解的一部分。然而,性别与发展方法将其理解为仅指两种身份:男性和女性。性也被认为是异性恋。这一思想影响了全世界的艾滋病毒/艾滋病预防战略,其结果是将与这些定义不同的人排除在外,使他们面临感染艾滋病毒的风险。在东南亚,特别是柬埔寨的研究表明,存在着不同的性别和性身份。一些创新性的工作已经开始,针对那些性别和性行为不符合传统分类的个人开展艾滋病毒/艾滋病预防活动。
'Gender' is a word that has become part of HIV/AIDS-related vocabulary and conceptual understanding. However, gender and development approaches understand it as denoting only two identities: male and female. Sexuality is likewise assumed to be heterosexuality. This thinking has informed HIV/AIDS prevention strategies worldwide, and the result is to exclude people who differ from these definitions, leaving them at risk of HIV infection. Research in South-East Asia, and specifically Cambodia, reveals the existence of diverse gender and sexual identities. Some innovative work has begun to develop HIV/AIDS prevention activities with individuals whose gender and sexuality defy conventional categories.
