许多国家的研究强调了男男性行为者感染艾滋病毒和其他性传播感染的脆弱性。然而，在非洲，由于普遍否认和污蔑男性同性恋行为，这类男子在艾滋病毒/艾滋病方案编制和服务提供方面几乎没有受到关注。在塞内加尔达喀尔，谢赫·安塔迪奥普大学、塞内加尔全国防治艾滋病委员会和地平线项目的研究人员进行的一项研究得出了有关男男性行为者的需求、行为、知识和态度的定量和定性数据。调查结果显示，受访者有不同的身份和社会角色，超越了性行为，与男性发生性关系的原因很多，包括爱情、快乐和经济交换，受访者的生活往往以污名、暴力和拒绝为特征。数据还强调，许多男性由于与其他男性发生无保护措施的性行为、性传播症状病史以及对性传播疾病的了解不足而面临感染HI7的风险。这项研究强调了非污名化、性健康的必要性。信息和服务。
Research in many countries has highlighted the vulnerability of men who have sex with men to HIV and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Yet in Africa, such men have received little attention in HIV/AIDS programming and service delivery because of the widespread denial and stigmatization of male homosexual behaviour. In Dakar, Senegal, a study conducted by researchers from Cheikh Anta Diop University, the Senegal National Council Against AIDS, and the Horizons Program elicited quantitative and qualitative data about the needs, behaviours, knowledge, and attitudes of men who have sex with men. Findings reveal that respondents have distinct identities and social roles that go beyond sexual practices, that sex with men is driven by many reasons, including love, pleasure, and economic exchange, and that respondents' lives are often characterized by stigma, violence and rejection. The data also highlight that many men are at risk of HI 7 because of unprotected sex with other men, a history of STI symptoms, and poor knowledge of STIs. The study underscores the need for non-stigmatizing, sexual health. information and services.
