男男性行为者 (MSM) 的年轻黑人是美国艾滋病毒感染率最高的人群之一。尽管报告的无保护肛交率与其他种族/族裔背景的 MSM 相似,但 15-22 岁的年轻黑人 MSM (YBMSM) 感染 HIV 的可能性是同等年龄的白人 MSM 的 5 倍。我们探讨了可能影响 YBMSM 如何评估风险、选择合作伙伴以及做出有关安全套使用的决策的背景社会环境因素。我们分析了对纽约市、纽约州北部和亚特兰大的 35 位 YBMSM (18-24) 的半结构化访谈。我们使用基于从数据中得出的理论方案的结构化分析编码。对男性气质的看法是影响伴侣选择、风险评估和安全套决策的主要背景因素。出现了四个主要主题:1)更偏爱被视为男性的伴侣; 2)对于让被认为女性化的男性成为肛交中的插入伴侣感到不舒服; 3)权力动态,使得被认为更具男性气概的伴侣在二人组中做出使用安全套的决定; 4) 利用潜在伴侣的男性气质来评估艾滋病毒风险。男性气质认知可能在 YBMSM 的 HIV 风险中发挥重要作用,并且可能是针对该人群的预防策略中需要考虑的重要概念。
Young Black men who have sex with men (MSM) have among the highest rates of HIV infection in the US. Although reported rates of unprotected anal intercourse are similar to MSM of other racial/ethnic backgrounds, young Black MSM (YBMSM) aged 15–22 are 5 times more likely than comparably aged white MSM to be HIV-infected. We explored contextual social-environmental factors that may influence how YBMSM assess risk, choose partners, and make decisions about condom use. We analyzed semi-structured interviews with 35 YBMSM (18–24) in New York City, upstate NY, and Atlanta. We used structured analytic coding based on a theoretical scheme that emerged from the data. Perception of masculinity was the primary contextual factor influencing partner selection, risk assessment, and condom decision-making. Four primary themes emerged: 1) greater preference for partners perceived as masculine; 2) discomfort with allowing men perceived as feminine to be the insertive partner in anal intercourse; 3) a power dynamic such that partners perceived as more masculine made condom-use decisions within the dyad; and 4) use of potential partners’ perceived masculinity to assess HIV risk. Perceived masculinity may play a significant role in HIV risk for YBMSM and may be an important concept to consider in prevention strategies directed towards this population.
