国际移徙与艾滋病毒感染风险增加有关,但对国内移徙者的脆弱性知之甚少。这项定性研究探讨了艾滋病毒和安全套的使用墨西哥女性工厂工人移民的看法。移徙和男性性不忠增加了感染艾滋病毒的可能性,无保护的性行为无处不在。主流文化将ogoodo(一夫一妻制)和obado(性歧视)妇女一分为二,男性伴侣的抵制是使用避孕套的障碍。妇女对避孕套提供的双重保护(怀孕和性传播感染)的积极态度以及通过拒绝不想要的性接触表达的性行为,是预防艾滋病毒的资源。
International migration is associated with increased HIV vulnerability, but little is known about the vulnerability of internal migrants. This qualitative study explored perceptions of HIV and condom use among Mexican migrant female factory workers. Migration and male sexual infidelity contributed to increased HIV vulnerability and unprotected sex was ubiquitous. The dominant cultural discourse that dichotomizes ogoodo (monogamous) and obado (sexually stigmatized) women, and male partner's resistance, were barriers to condom use. Women's positive attitudes toward the dual protection (pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections) offered by condoms and sexual agency expressed by refusing unwanted sexual contact are resources for HIV prevention.
