在美国,许多感染人类免疫缺陷病毒(艾滋病毒)的妇女是非洲裔美国人或西班牙裔美国人后裔的贫穷妇女。感染艾滋病毒的妇女经历了多种形式的压迫和歧视,被指责为艾滋病毒的受害者,并被贴上吸毒者、妓女和获得性免疫缺陷综合症(艾滋病)携带者的标签。他们因其性别、性行为、少数民族地位、贫困以及艾滋病毒抗体阳性而受到侮辱。本文运用污名理论来探讨与这一弱势客户群体相关的污名的来源。
In the United States many women infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) are poor women of African American or Hispanic American descent. Women with HIV have experienced many forms of oppression and discrimination and have been blamed as the victims of HIV and labeled as drug users, prostitutes, and carriers of acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS). They have been stigmatized for their gender, their sexuality, their minority status, and their poverty, as well as for their HIV-positive status. Stigma theory is used in this article to explore the sources of stigma associated with this vulnerable group of clients.
