Extensive interviews concentrating on acculturation and sexuality were conducted among 70 bisexually or homosexually active men mainly of Chinese-, Filipino-, and Korean-American backgrounds. Impressionistic data reveal higher involvement in gay culture than in Asian culture, a move away from the complexity of bisexual lifestyles, and two patterns of exogenous selection of male partners. Asian-American homosexual men were more likely than comparison groups to comply with safer sex, and acculturation to Asian society improved this compliance—however, identification with Western Protestantism, or traditional Latin homosexual roles, was associated with higher risk behavior. Fears that bisexuals were a conduit for transmitting the virus from the gay to the heterosexual community were not substantiated. Details of the combination of factors suggested by the data to possibly result in sexual risk taking and of suggestions for prevention are provided. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
