移徙后性生活的重建是移民健康的一个核心方面,也是适应和融入过程的一个组成部分。尽管其意义重大,但几乎没有量化信息来衡量伴随移徙而来的性行为变化。本文通过比较达勒姆,北卡罗来纳州和墨西哥派遣社区的墨西哥人之间的性行为和态度,有助于文献连接移民适应和健康风险。与社会建构主义的性取向相一致,我们发现,与非移民相比,居住在美国的墨西哥人表现出更高的风险暴露,包括偶然的,在男性中,商业伙伴。与移民相关的风险增加因性别和婚姻状况而系统地变化,并伴随着对性行为态度的变化,美国的背景与对不忠的更高容忍度和对性行为的生物学解释有关。我们讨论了在美国和国外的移民适应和卫生政策的影响。
The reconstruction of sexuality after migration is a central dimension of immigrant health and an integral part of the process of adaptation and incorporation. Despite its significance there is little quantitative information measuring the changes in sexual behavior accompanying migration. This paper contributes to the literature connecting immigrant adaptation and health risks by comparing sexual practices and attitudes among Mexicans in Durham, NC and Mexican sending communities. Consistent with a social constructivist approach to sexuality we show that compared to non-migrants, Mexicans residing in the U.S. exhibit heightened exposure to risk, including casual and, among men, commercial partners. The enhanced risks associated with migration vary systematically by gender and marital status and are accompanied by variation in attitudes towards sexuality, with the U.S. context associated with higher tolerance for infidelity and biological explanations of sexuality. We discuss the implications for immigrant adaptation and health policies in the U.S. and abroad.
