在美国,预防异性恋艾滋病流行的重点一直是妇女。 在艾滋病预防方法中,男子在性决策中的作用没有得到强调。 因此,由于对男性性伴侣的行为缺乏关注,女性的异性恋流行病继续有增无减。 本文描述了男性性伴侣的概况,并强调性别角色和性。 单纯侧重于妇女的预防工作受到了误导,实际上损害了妇女的利益,使她们承担减少艾滋病毒风险的责任。 在异性恋者中预防艾滋病将需要审查传统的性别角色社会化如何与安全性行为背道而驰。 控制这一流行病将需要重视男子,因为他们是对自己的健康和妇女的健康负责的个人。
The focus of prevention of the heterosexual AIDS epidemic in the U.S. has been on women. The role of men in sexual decision making has not been emphasized in AIDS prevention approaches. As a result, the heterosexual epidemic for women continues unabated because of the lack of attention to the behavior of male sex partners. This article describes a profile of male sex partners and emphasizes gender roles and sexuality. Prevention efforts that focus singly on women have been misguided and have actually served to undermine women by making them responsible for HIV risk reduction. Prevention of AIDS among heterosexuals will require an examination of how traditional gender role socialization runs counter to safer sex practices. Control of the epidemic will require a focus on men as individuals responsible for their own health and the health of women.
