  • Transgender stigma

    Open AccessLynne D’Amico, Alfonso Silva-Santisteban et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of Language…2026

    This study analyzes the discursive construction of transgender stigma in depictions of transgender people by the Peruvian press. It provides an important theoretical advancement establishing the press’ disapproving language actions (DLAs) as the nexus between social control and stigma. It connects sociolinguistics, speech act theory, media studies, and transgender research, leveraging the value of prior research informing the speech action of dis…

  • A Qualitative Assessment of “Generacion Actual”

    Open AccessAndres Maiorana, Susan M Kegele et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2025

    The high HIV prevalence among men who have sex with men and transgender women (TW) in Peru calls for innovative HIV prevention strategies to modify social norms, increase social support and promote empowerment and community mobilization. This qualitative article presents the synergistic processes that generated community mobilization throughout Generación Actual (GA, Current Generation in English), an HIV prevention intervention with gay men (GM)…

  • Design and pilot evaluation of a brief intervention to reduce transphobia and improve attitudes of government officials to address legal gender affirmation needs of transgender people in Peru

    Open AccessSari L Reisner, Amaya Perez-Brumer et al.ARTICLEGlobal Health Action2024

    Legal gender affirmation – legal name and gender marker change – is an important health-promoting health determinant for transgender people. In Peru, the state's failure to universally recognize transgender people’s legal identity limits standardized legal affirmation procedures, including the paucity of government officials trained in gender affirmation strategies. This project, in partnership with Registro Nacional de Identificación y Estado Ci…

  • The “Cycle” of HIV

    Open AccessCasey Orozco‐Poore, Amaya Perez-Brumer et al.ARTICLEAIDS and Behavior2024

    Globally, transgender women (TW) face a high burden of the HIV epidemic. In Peru, HIV prevalence among TW rises at age 25, indicating a need to understand HIV vulnerability as adolescents reach adulthood. The life course of TW is often marked by abuse, discrimination and poverty fueled by transphobic stigma. Approaches to the HIV epidemic among TW and adolescents emphasize problem behaviors such as unprotected sex and substance. However, there ha…

  • Intersectional stigma and the arc of intranational migration

    Open AccessAmaya Perez-Brumer, Ximena Salazar et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2023

    Findings advance understandings of intranational migration and forced displacement as key determinants of trans women's health. Dimensions of violence at the intersection of classism and cisgenderism render trans women highly vulnerable at every step of their migratory journeys. Experiences of intranational mobility and relocation were described as uniquely tied to age, intersectional transphobic stigma, engagement in sex work, and multiple forms…

  • Confluent paths

    Open AccessXimena Salazar, Arón Núnez‐Curto et al.ARTICLEGlobal Public Health2019

    The recognition of transgender women (TGW) as the most vulnerable population to HIV/AIDS in Peru and their inclusion as a specific key affected population in health research was the outcome of an extended process that culminated when TGW community organisations succeeded in articulating themselves as a population separate from men who have sex with men (MSM) and, in alliance with some academic research groups, documented their HIV prevalence and …

    Open AccessAndres Maiorana, Susan M Kegele et al.ARTICLEGlobal Public Health2016

    We used qualitative, quantitative, and observational methods to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and potential efficacy of Proyecto Orgullo (PO), a pilot community mobilisation intervention to decrease sexual risk, promote health-seeking behaviours, and facilitate personal and community empowerment among gay men (GM) and transgender women (TW) in Peru. PO was adapted from Mpowerment and Hermanos de Luna y Sol, two US interventions. PO inclu…

  • You should build yourself up as a whole product’

    Open AccessLealah Pollock, Alfonso Silva-Santiesteban et al.ARTICLEGlobal Public Health2016

    Transgender women in Lima, Peru have, until recently, been grouped together with gay and bisexual men in the category MSM, or men who have sex with men, with little consideration of their unique situation and needs. Transgender women, self-identified in Peru as travesti, are a socially vulnerable population with many unmet health needs, including an HIV prevalence of 30%. Understanding specific transgender identities and their contexts will contr…

  • Itineraries of Sexology in Peru

    Ximena Salazar, Carlos F CáceresARTICLEInternational Journal of Sexual…2013

    At a time of increasing re-medicalization of sexuality in the region, where concerns about its social dimensions and the role of culture and structural contexts are becoming less apparent, an exploration of the role played in recent history by other approaches, such as sexology, is particularly relevant. This study intended to assess if, and to what extent, the field of sexology was ever established in Peru. With this goal in mind, the study buil…

  • Frequency, patterns, and preferences of lubricant use during anal intercourse within male sexual partnerships in Lima, Peru

    Jesse L Clark, Jesse Clark et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2013

    Understanding current practices of lubricant use during anal intercourse can help to assess the contexts for the introduction of topical rectal microbicides as an HIV prevention tool for men who have sex with men (MSM). We used quantitative and qualitative methods to assess: current patterns of lubricant use; preferred characteristics of commercial lubricant formulations; and social and behavioral contexts of lubricant use within male sexual part…

  • Influencia del contexto sociocultural en la percepción del riesgo y la negociación de protección en hombres homosexuales pobres de la costa peruana

    Open AccessXimena Salazar, Carlos F Cáceres et al.ARTICLECadernos de Saude Publica2006Citada por: 1Referencias: 2

    Este trabajo utiliza un enfoque del riesgo concebido, no como una acción individual, sino tomando su dimensión social. Busca analizar las diferentes formas en que el contexto sociocultural, relacionado a la homofobia internalizada y a las normas de género hegemónicas, permite la construcción de barreras en la percepción del riesgo. Estas barreras impiden la negociación de protección entre hombres homosexuales que han asumido una identidad de géne…

  • Vulnerability and sexual risks

    Ximena Salazar, Carlos F Cáceres et al.ARTICLECulture Health & Sexuality2005

    Young people constitute a priority for sexual health research, policy and planning. Many studies, however, regard youth as a homogeneous group defined by developmental stages and their problems as inherent rather than factors resulting from structural vulnerability. Ethnographic data from this study provided strong evidence of the inappropriateness, in prevention interventions, of the concept of 'young people' as a group defined only by age and g…
