同性关系的可接受性的结构性变化可能会为年轻的同性恋和双性恋男性（YGBM）提供机会，以发展对他们理想的未来关系的期望。对未来的期望可以作为一个促进因素，在青年的生活和减少艾滋病毒的冒险行为，但是，很少有研究探讨了未来的关系和性行为的YGBM的构想之间的关系。在这项研究中，我们研究了浪漫意念（即，亲密，激情和承诺）和性伴侣的数量在一个样本的年轻男子（N = 431; M年龄= 21.49岁; 88%的自我认同为同性恋）谁报告使用互联网，以满足其他男子。使用多变量泊松回归，我们发现一个负相关的承诺和无保护措施的性行为，接受和插入，在过去的两个月的合作伙伴的数量。当我们研究关系排他性和伴侣数量之间的关系时，我们发现了类似的结果。在考虑了年龄、种族/民族、性别认同以及在网上寻找临时和浪漫伴侣的时间后，这些关联仍然存在。我们发现，伴侣的数量与亲密或激情关系的构想之间没有显着关联。我们讨论了我们的研究结果的影响，并得出结论，有必要考虑和包括YGBM的期望在未来正在进行的艾滋病预防计划。
Structural changes in the acceptability of same-sex relationships may provide young gay and bisexual men (YGBM) with opportunities to develop expectations about their ideal future relationships. Expectations about the future may act as a promotive factor in youths’ lives and reduce HIV risk-taking behaviors; however, few studies have examined the relationship between ideation of a future relationship and sexual behaviors of YGBM. In this study, we examined the relationship between romantic ideation (i.e., intimacy, passion, and commitment) and number of sexual partners in a sample of young men (N = 431; M age = 21.49 years; 88% self-identified as gay) who reported using the Internet to meet other men. Using multivariate Poisson regressions, we found a negative association between commitment and number of partners for unprotected sex, both receptive and insertive, in the past two months. We found similar results when we examined the association between relationship exclusivity and number of partners. These associations persisted after accounting for age, race/ethnicity, sexual identity, and hours spent seeking casual and romantic partners online. We found no significant association between number of partners and ideation of an intimate or passionate relationship, respectively. We discuss the implications of our findings and conclude that there is a need to consider and include YGBM's expectations about the future in on-going HIV prevention programs.
