“…Defined as an alternative sexual practice, including in situations perceived to carry some degree of risk, oral sex was described by informants as an activity that increased pleasure in the initial moments of a sexual relationship. Other studies have emphasized that the perception of lower risk of HIV infection associated with oral sex is related to the imprecision and ambiguity of scientific discourse about this subject (Gerbert et al 1999;Funari 2003;Baggaley et al 2008). A bisexual girl had the following to say about this topic: "I don't think you can catch [HIV] this way.…”

Sexual Diversity and Vulnerability to AIDS: the Role of Sexual Identity and Gender in the Perception of Risk by Young People (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil)

This paper analyzes the perceptions of risk for HIV transmission and the formation of sexual identities and gender of young men and women of different sexual orientations and color/race. The study is based on ethnographic observation in a variety of nocturnal social environments in Rio de Janeiro and interviews with young people within this context. The findings show that our informants have assimilated preventive information regarding HIV, but have difficulties in adopting consistent condom use. There are variations in HIV risk perception associated with sexual identities and gender: gay men see themselves and are perceived by others as the most vulnerable group. Among youth who claim heterosexual practices, susceptibility to HIV is associated with "others". Lesbians see themselves as not being at risk for AIDS. It can be concluded that sexual identities and gender influence the perception of AIDS risk. However, being social, sexual identities are contextual and can vary over the course of a person's life. Our results underscore the importance of the current debate regarding the implications of fixing identity labels to social and political movements.

“…Existem evidências científicas que apontam para o sexo oral como uma via de transmissão para o HIV. Porém, os estudos realizados até o momento não são precisos quanto à quantificação e à qualificação desse risco (13) . Cabe notar a grande preferência da população de HSH estudada pela realização da prática do sexo anal.…”

RESUMOObjetivou-se identificar comportamentos e práticas sexuais de homens que fazem sexo com homens no contexto da vulnerabilidade ao HIV/AIDS. Estudo transversal, exploratório descritivo. Foi realizado em um local de sociabilidade gay de Fortaleza, no Estado do Ceará, entre novembro de 2010 e março de 2011, por meio de entrevista com 189 homens que fazem sexo com homens. Encontrou-se uma amostra composta, majoritariamente, por jovens, solteiros e com alto nível educacional. A história sexual demonstrou o início precoce da vida sexual, com prevalência elevada de relação sexual com parceira do sexo oposto. Houve alta frequência de testagem para o HIV. As práticas sexuais revelaram prevalência superior da realização de sexo oral e anal, bem como altos níveis de proteção no sexo anal, apesar de baixa no sexo oral. Constatou-se uma maior incorporação das práticas de prevenção em relação ao panorama nacional do início da epidemia. Descritores: Comportamento Sexual; Homossexualidade Masculina; Fatores de Risco; Vulnerabilidade em Saúde; Enfermagem. ABSTRACTThe objective was to identify behaviors and sexual practices of men who have sexual relations with other men in the context of vulnerability to HIV/AIDS. This was a cross-sectional, exploratory and descriptive study. It was carried out in a gay sociability place in Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil, between November 2010 and March 2011, through interviews with 189 men who have sex with men. The ethical aspects were respected. We found a sample consisting mostly by young, single, and highly educated men. The sexual history demonstrated the early onset of sexual activity, with a high prevalence of sexual intercourse with a partner of the opposite sex. There was also a high prevalence of HIV testing. Sexual practices revealed high prevalence of performing oral and anal sex, as well as high levels of protection in anal sex, despite the low protection in oral sex. A greater incorporation of prevention practices was found compared to the national scene in the beginning of the disease outbreak. Key words: Sexual Behavior; Homosexuality Male; Risk Factors; Health Vulnerability; Nursing.

This study focuses on the research output in the relationship between males and health in the public health field. The objective is to critically analyze the most recurrent ideas on the specificities of maleness in the health-disease process. The method consisted of a literature review in public health, based on a qualitative research approach. Male sexuality, masculinity, and reproduction and masculinity and power were the themes found in the analysis.
