Gender differences in condom usage among rural crack-using men and women
1Florida International University, Department of Public Health, North Miami 33181, USA.
Abstract:
Consistent condom use is an important aspect of decreasing HIV transmission risk in heterosexual crack cocaine using populations. This study explores gender differences in attitudes and motivations to use condoms within a rural, economically disadvantaged sample. Qualitative data analysis identified recurrent themes regarding condom use and assessed how themes varied among men and women. Analyses showed that men and women exhibit different rationales for condom use, while both reported inconsistencies between their knowledge about safe sex, receptivity to condom use, and applications in practice. The findings suggest that prevention programs should be tailored to increase consistent condom use among main partners of crack smokers at risk for HIV.
