Partner Dynamics - Age of Partner and Sexual Role Sample Clauses

Partner Dynamics - Age of Partner and Sexual Role. The insights provided about partner dynamics were complicated and circumstantial. As stated before, understanding the context in which risky behavior takes place is essential to not only better understand risk taking, but also to develop better interventions that target this interpersonal influence. The data reveal several important points on which to focus. First, each of the participants reported that their last CAI partner was older. This finding could add to the growing body of literature suggesting that condom decision-making may be influenced by a power differential between older and younger men related to age and by the sex roles these men assume (Xxxxxxx, 2010; Xxxxxx et al., 2015; Xxxxxxxxx et al., 2011). Fields et al (2015) specifically found that partners of a “lower status”, meaning young age, more feminine or taking on the role of being the receptive partner, would be more likely to submit to the wants of a partner with a “higher status” who presented as more dominant, older, masculine, and insertive partner. The vulnerability and lack of self-efficacy in these YMSM has placed them at a disadvantage to their older, more powerful male partners. Another study conducted by Xxxxxxxxx and Xxxxxxx (2013) also found that older partners in sexual networks of Black YMSM may be driving rates of HIV infection. This qualitative study found that YBMSM are more likely to not only have partners of the same race, but that they are older. The motivating factors to have an older partner range from seeking emotional maturity to someone who can introduce them to the LGBT community. They found that unprotected sex with older Black partners, a population with a high rate of HIV, could be associated with HIV seroconversion in YBMSM. Finally, Xxxxxxxxx-Xxxxxxx et al. (2013) found similar trends in partner selection in that YBMSM seek two benefits from older partners: the ability to be exposed to life experiences by the older partner and emotional support. Along the same line, several men mentioned participating in CAI to find a deeper connection with a partner. Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxxxx, Ventuneac and Remien (2009) also found that not using condoms allows for more intimacy, more satisfaction and connectedness with a partner. While not explored thoroughly in this research project, the need for connections with a partner could be driven from the general feelings of rejection in certain community groups. Research has shown conflict in YBMSM sense of identity and social ac...
