Prevalence data on the social distribution and AIDS-related risk behavior of men who have sex with men are presented from two national probability surveys and from a probability survey of urban centers in the U.S. Findings revealed that men living in large cities, the highly educated, and whites were more likely to report sex with men. In the urban sample, it was found that one-third reported sex with women, and minority men were more likely to report sex with men and women. In addition, consistent condom use was reported by over half of the men with an HIV risk factor. It is concluded that the difference between current population estimates of homosexual behavior and estimates reported by Kinsey and his colleagues in 1948 and 1953 may not be as large as it seems at first when conceptual and definitional issues are taken into account. The implications of the findings for strategies required to combat the AIDS epidemic are considered. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
