Sexual Networking, Sexual Practices and Level of Awareness among MSM on HIV/ AIDS

Filipinos infected with HIV-AIDS continued to balloon, notwithstanding the intervention through comprehensive prevention, dissemination, and control programs. In Eastern Visayas, 69 cases were coming from the most risk population, primarily Men Having Sex with Men (MSM), either homosexual, heterosexual, or bisexual modes of transmission. Bearing this epidemic, sexual networking, using the internet for sex served as cruising sites for casual sex, and promiscuity may be accounted for this surge. This study used a descriptive cross-sectional method with 214 active users from different social sites using time-location sampling through interviews, group discussions, and questionnaires. Results showed that most respondents joined the site for sex and had an average of 1-5 different sexual intercourse for the past three months. Sexual practices were oral, anal, and oral-anal. Respondents were aware of the different modes of transmission but fully unaware of the existing services of the DOH and were willing to be screened for HIV.
