Aboriginal adults’ perspectives on talking with young people about sexual health and relationships in two communities in Western Sydney, Australia
This strengths-based study investigated Aboriginal adults’ views on young people’s sexual health, attitudes and relationships. Between 2019 and 2020, sixteen interviews were conducted with adults aged 25 and older from two Aboriginal communities in Western Sydney, Australia. In this paper, we discuss adults’ perspectives on intergenerational communication about sex in their communities. Participants highlighted intergenerational learning via talk…
A Decade of HIV Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Cascade Monitoring
We have monitored Australia's maturing HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) program for the past decade, providing a unique view of long-term implementation among gay, bisexual and queer men and non-binary people. Using two national surveys, the GBQ + Community Periodic Surveys (GCPS, 2014-2023, N = 78,378) and the PrEPARE Project (2017-2023, N = 5,278), we constructed and iteratively refined cascades to monitor PrEP suitability, awareness, use, a…
Migration Status and HIV Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Uptake Among Gay and Bisexual Men and Non-binary People in Australia
Increasing HIV prevention coverage among migrant gay and bisexual men (GBM) and non-binary people in Australia has become a priority, as recently arrived migrants are at higher risk of HIV acquisition than longer-term Australian residents. We compared GBM and non-binary participants who were willing to use but had never used pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) before with current PrEP users, and explored how migration status was associated with PrEP …
Undoing Minority Stress
This article queries statistical ways of knowing about “LGBT substance use” and the subject positions they produce. We engage critically with how quantitative knowledge on this topic is generated across social science, psychology and public health and consider its disciplinary effects. This literature reports “higher rates of substance use” among sexual and gender minorities but struggles to explain the disparities it proposes. The most prominent…
The relationship between access to peer support programs and quality of life among people living with HIV in Australia
Peer support services for people living with HIV (PLHIV) serve varying functions and are a unique resource for support. Peer support programs are considered an important strategy for achieving better quality of life (QoL) for PLHIV and there has been substantial investment in provision of such programs. The present study asks whether being connected to other PLHIV is associated with better QoL for PLHIV in Australia and; whether involvement in fo…
Estimating Prevention-Effective Adherence to HIV Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Among Australian Gay, Bisexual and Queer Men and Non-binary People
Oral HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is highly effective when taken appropriately at times of HIV risk, termed "prevention-effective adherence". To understand suboptimal adherence, we refined a brief measure for surveys among gay, bisexual and queer men and non-binary (GBQ+) people. We used a mixed-methods design, comprising a national, online cross-sectional survey (June-July 2023) and cognitive interviews (August-October 2023). Logistic reg…
Moving from In-Person to Digital Delivery Models of HIV Peer Support Services in Response to Covid-19
COVID-19 saw a rapid shift in how community-based peer support programs were delivered. HIV peer support workers were required to work from home and community-based HIV and LGBTQ + organisations moved their support programs to digital platforms. Between May and September 2020, semi-structured interviews were conducted with individuals who worked (n = 17) or volunteered (n = 4) for community-based HIV and/or LGBTQ + health organisations. Interview…
The Role of Social and Sexual Networks in Connecting to Sexual Health Services
Introduction Migrant gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (GBMSM) are a priority population in HIV prevention in Australia. This study sought to understand how social and sexual networks influence sexual health behaviours among migrant GBMSM. Methods Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 27 migrant GBMSM who moved to Australia from 2017 onwards. Interviews were conducted between November 2022 and September 2023. Interviews …
The Intersection of HIV and Migration
This qualitative study aimed to understand how migration experiences shape wellbeing and quality of life (QoL) for Asian‐born men who have sex with men (MSM) who are living with HIV in Australia, and to identify relevant support needs. Drawing from intersectionality theory, this paper reports findings from semi‐structured interviews with Asian‐born MSM ( n = 9), as well as key informants working in the HIV sector ( n = 9, total n = 18). Data were…
Covid-19 and the biopolitics of stigma in public housing
The COVID-19 'hard lockdowns' in Melbourne, Australia in 2020 targeted public housing estates thus trading on perceptions of risk associated with public housing as some of the most stigmatised sites in post-industrial cities. This article draws on interviews with Melbourne public housing tenants on their experience of COVID-19 lockdowns to analyse the place of stigma in residents' accounts. Pairing Wacquant et al's (2014) concept of 'territorial …
The 'Informed Matter' of Gay and Bisexual Men's (Potential) Use of HIV Antiretrovirals to Prevent Covid-19
In 2020, there were reports that HIV antiretrovirals, specifically the combination tenofovir disoproxil fumarate and emtricitabine (TDF/FTC), had therapeutic potential for COVID-19. In the context of scant empirical evidence at the time to confirm such an effect, we sought to understand the ways that gay and bisexual men (GBM) made sense of-and embodied-information about HIV antiretrovirals in relation to preventing and/or treating COVID-19. We c…
Yarning as a method for building sexual wellbeing among urban Aboriginal young people in Australia
This paper describes the strategies used by Aboriginal young people to build positive relationships and sexual wellbeing. It does so to counter the risk-focussed narratives present in much existing research and to showcase the resourcefulness of Aboriginal young people. We used peer-interview methods to collect qualitative data from 52 Aboriginal young people living in western Sydney, Australia. Participants reported a strong desire to stay safe …
Remaking Chemsex Event Networks in the Age of HIV Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP)
Let's be honest: it's a party drug', declared the president of the AIDS Healthcare Foundation of Los Angeles, following the approval of Truvada for HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). Drawing on the accounts of gay and queer-identifying men, we explore the ways in which PrEP has not only made chemsex possible for a new group of people, but has also changed what chemsex is. If the association with HIV infection has helped render chemsex an object…
Explicit Relationship Agreements and HIV Pre-exposure Prophylaxis Use by Gay and Bisexual Men in Relationships
Relationship agreements are important for HIV prevention among gay and bisexual men (GBM) in relationships, with research earlier in the HIV epidemic often finding that agreements specified monogamy or condom use with casual partners. There is evidence that HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) has shifted sexual practices among some men in relationships, such as allowing condomless sex with casual partners, but there has been little attention paid…
Injecting as a sexual practice
‘Slamsex’ has emerged in gay vernacular in recent years to denote a particular way of taking drugs and a particular kind of sex. Slamming refers in this context to the practice of injecting drugs – typically crystal methamphetamine – intravenously. To pair ‘slamming’ with ‘sex’ is to propose that a particular mode of drug administration is constitutive of a particular kind of sex – a relatively novel idea that deserves some unpacking. What does i…
Aboriginal young people’s perspectives and experiences of accessing sexual health services and sex education in Australia
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander (Aboriginal) young people seek information and access health services for their sexual health needs. This study examined Aboriginal young people's perspectives on sexual health services and sex education in Australia. Overall, 51 Aboriginal people aged 16-26 years were interviewed by peer researchers in Sydney, Australia in 2019-2020. The findings suggest that the internet was used to assess information quick…
Identifying Patterns of Discontinuing and Recommencing Pre-exposure Prophylaxis in the Context of Sexual Behavior Among Gay and Bisexual Men in Australia
We mapped gay and bisexual men's (GBM) patterns of using pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) over time and explored sexual behavior as PrEP use changed. We conducted semi-structured interviews between June 2020 and February 2021 with 40 GBM living in Australia who had changed their PrEP use since initiating. There was considerable diversity in patterns of discontinuation, suspension, and recommencement of PrEP. Reasons for changing PrEP use mostly ce…
How to have sex in a pandemic
Although many studies reported on decreases in sexual partner numbers among gay and bisexual-identifying men in the early period of the COVID-19 pandemic, few studies have explored COVID-19 risk-reduction strategies. Drawing on free-text responses in an online survey (from April to July 2020), we describe the ways in which men sought to minimise the risk of COVID-19 in sexual encounters. Partner selection was an important strategy, in particular,…
Experiences of, and motivations for, disclosing HIV to social and familial networks
For people living with HIV, decisions about when, how and who to tell about their HIV status can involve navigating complex social, legal and health domains. With a focus on disclosure to broader social and familial networks, we explored the experiences of, and motivations for, HIV (non-)disclosure among recently diagnosed people living with HIV in Australia. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 35 people diagnosed with HIV from 2016 on…
Perceptions of Covid-19 Vaccines
COVID-19 vaccination is particularly challenging among populations who have experienced discrimination in healthcare settings. This paper presents qualitative findings from in-depth interviews about COVID-19 vaccination conducted in Australia between October 2020 and November 2021. Data from four different studies are presented; each population has unique experiences of discrimination within the healthcare system: Aboriginal people; people who in…
Requesting HIV Results Be Conveyed in-Person
In some instances, conveying HIV diagnoses by phone may be more appropriate than recalling individuals to the clinic to deliver a positive HIV diagnosis in person
HIV Diagnosis as Both Biographical Disruption and Biographical Reinforcement
Despite the potential for HIV treatments to transform the health needs of people living with HIV, receiving a positive HIV diagnosis can be a difficult experience and feelings of shock, distress and concerns for the future are commonly reported. Drawing on Michael Bury's conceptualisation of 'biographical disruption', we utilised semi-structured interviews to explore experiences of HIV diagnoses among 34 people diagnosed with HIV between 2016 and…
Pandemic policing and the construction of publics
COVID-19 responses have cast a spotlight on the uneven impacts of public health policy with particular populations or sites targeted for intervention. Perhaps the starkest example in Australia was the 'hard' lockdown of nine public housing complexes in inner-city Melbourne from 4 to 18 July 2020, where residents were fully confined to their homes. These complexes are home to diverse migrant communities and the lockdown drew public criticism for u…
Aboriginal peoples’ perspectives about Covid-19 vaccines and motivations to seek vaccination
INTRODUCTION: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander (Aboriginal) people compared with non-Aboriginal people in Australia have higher rates of chronic conditions. These conditions increase the risk of poorer health outcomes if infected with COVID-19, highlighting the importance of COVID-19 vaccination. This study examined what Aboriginal people think about COVID-19 vaccines, reasons why they were vaccinated or not vaccinated and factors involved i…
Covid-19 Vaccine Uptake and Its Impacts in a Cohort of Gay and Bisexual Men in Australia
Successful use of biomedical forms of HIV risk-reduction may have predisposed many gay and bisexual men (GBM) to vaccination against COVID-19, which may, in turn, affect their sexual behavior. A total of 622 Australian GBM provided weekly data on COVID-19 vaccination history and sexual behaviour between 17 January 2021 and 22 June 2021. We identify factors associated with COVID-19 vaccination, and compare sexual behavior before and since vaccinat…
Beyond deficit
Health research concerning Indigenous peoples has been strongly characterised by deficit discourse-a 'mode of thinking' that is overly focused on risk behaviours and problems. Strengths-based approaches offer a different perspective by promoting a set of values that recognise the capacities and capabilities of Indigenous peoples. In this article, we seek to understand the conceptual basis of strengths-based approaches as currently presented in he…
The Desire for Parenthood
Gay men are becoming increasingly involved in reproduction despite significant barriers limiting their access to reproductive technologies or legal parentage in many jurisdictions. Based on in-depth interviews with gay men in the United States and Australia who have become parents through surrogacy, I explore how gay men understand their desire to have children and what frames their parenthood experiences. The notion of choice is widespread in un…
Qualitative Findings on the Impact of Covid-19 Restrictions on Australian Gay and Bisexual Men
COVID-19 may threaten the already poor mental health outcomes of Australian gay and bisexual men and cut ties to important social/sexual networks and community. Qualitative research into the experiences of gay and bisexual men during COVID-19 regulations is currently sparse. We report on 489 responses to a qualitative free-text question asking Australian gay and bisexual men about the impacts of COVID-19 during April 2020. Issues pertinent to gay…
Making publics in a pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic has placed sexual relationships into sharp focus as strict containment measures, including physical distancing and 'stay at home' restrictions, were initiated to control the spread of the virus. Governments in some jurisdictions prevented contact between non-cohabiting sexual partners (except for couples in pre-existing relationships), while community organisations recommended people avoid casual sexual encounters. This arti…

Belonging, social connection and non‐clinical care
Effective HIV treatments have transformed the medical needs of people living with HIV (PLHIV) to a chronic condition. However, stigma, poorer mental health outcomes and social isolation remain significant challenges for many PLHIV. HIV peer support programs have assisted PLHIV in navigating the clinical, emotional and social aspects of living with HIV. We draw on semi-structured interviews with 26 recently diagnosed PLHIV in Australia to explore …
Using social media as a platform to publicly disclose HIV status among people living with HIV
Disclosure of HIV status is usually considered a private encounter involving only a limited number of people at a time. Many people living with HIV are strategic about deciding in what contexts, using which approach, to whom, and to what extent they disclose HIV status. However, social media platforms provide opportunities for people to publicly disclose information about themselves to their networks. Utilising semi-structured interviews with peo…
Individual Versus Community-Level Risk Compensation Following Preexposure Prophylaxis of HIV
We analyzed the concept of risk compensation and how it has been applied in HIV prevention, paying particular attention to the strategy of HIV preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP). In risk compensation, reduced perceptions of risk after the introduction of a preventative intervention lead to more frequent risk-taking behavior. Such a change may undermine the intervention’s protective benefits. We found that many studies purporting to investigate risk c…

Increase in Depression and Anxiety Among Australian Gay and Bisexual Men During Covid-19 Restrictions
We examined depression and anxiety prior to and during COVID-19 restrictions in Australian gay and bisexual men (GBM). In an online cohort, a COVID-19-focused survey was conducted in April 2020. During 2019 and in April 2020, 664 GBM completed the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9, measuring depression) and Generalized Anxiety Disorder Assessment (GAD-7, measuring anxiety). Increased depression and anxiety were defined as a ≥ 5 point increase o…
Playing hard
In recent years, the concept of 'calculated hedonism' has dominated sociological understandings of young people's drinking practices. However, while contributing some important insights, this conceptualisation has not sufficiently considered the affective and embodied aspects of alcohol consumption. Our analysis explores the meanings and understandings of alcohol consumption among male participants in an 18-month study of young adults living in i…

Some lessons learned about risk reduction after ten years of the HIV/Aids epidemic
This article reviews some of the key facts concerning HIV risk behavior change the prevention lessons of the first decade of the AIDS epidemic. One of the most important developments over the past 10 years has been the marked increase in knowledge about the AIDS. More people are now aware of the measures for reducing the risk of contracting the disease -- using condoms and avoiding unprotected sex and needle-sharing. Risk reduction however is not…
In a minority of gay men, sexual risk practice indicates strategic positioning for perceived risk reduction rather than unbridled sex
The aim of this analysis was to examine gay men's sexual risk practice to determine patterns of risk management. Ten cross-sectional surveys of gay men were conducted six-monthly from February 1996 to August 2000 at Sydney gay community social, sex-on-premises and sexual health sites (average n = 827). Every February during this period, five identical surveys were conducted at the annual Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras Fair Day (average n = 1178). Amo…
In a minority of gay men, sexual risk practice indicates strategic positioning for perceived risk reduction rather than unbridled sex
Effects of empowerment among HIV-positive women on the patient-provider relationship
An assessment of the effects of HIV/AIDS patients' empowered behaviours on the patient-provider relationship was undertaken. Participants were 50 HIV-positive women ranging in age from 23 to 48 years, with 60% of the sample African American, 24% Latina, 6% White and 10% mixed/other race. Descriptive and canonical correlation analyses were used to investigate the interrelationships between patients' empowered behaviours and self-reported interacti…
Risk management and harm reduction among gay men in Sydney
Drawing on extensive behavioural data from Sydney, this paper examines some of the strategies that gay men have devised to manage (as distinct from eliminate) risk of HIV transmission. Apart from negotiated safety and positive-positive sex, which have been practised for some time, the evidence presented here confirms the role of a number of other harm-reduction strategies, some safer than others. The challenge now for educators, both locally and …
Fear appeals and treatment side-effects
Recent rises in the incidence of HIV infections among gay men in Australia have produced widespread discussion about appropriate health promotion responses. This has sometimes included calls for a return to fear-based campaigns, exemplified by the Grim Reaper advertisements in HIV. This paper discusses results from four focus groups that tested mock campaign material based on an appeal to fear. Five different poster images were tested among group…
Knowledge distribution and power relations in HIV-related education and prevention for gay men
This paper seeks to make a theoretical and analytic intervention into the field of HIV-related education and prevention by applying the pedagogy framework of Basil Bernstein to a series of pedagogical devices developed and used in community-based programmes targeting gay men in Australia. The paper begins by outlining why it is such an intervention might be necessary at this stage in the Australian response to the epidemic, suggesting that extant…

The need to know
Although there is evidence of increasing overall rates of HIV status disclosure among gay and bisexual men, little is known about men's disclosure expectations and practices. In this study, we investigate the importance non-HIV-positive men in Australia vest in knowing the HIV status of their sexual partners, and the extent to which they restrict sex to partners of the same HIV status, and their HIV disclosure expectations. Data were collected th…

HCV knowledge, disclosure practices, and risk perceptions among gay and bisexual men who do and do not engage in group sex while using drugs
Research suggests that hepatitis C virus (HCV) transmission is more likely among gay and bisexual men (GBM) who engage in sexually adventurous practices, including group sex while using drugs. The current study explored drug use, sexual practices, HCV knowledge, HCV disclosure, and beliefs about HCV transmission among GBM (n = 193) reporting group sex after/while using drugs compared to those who did not. Survey findings indicate that men who par…
Knowledge, attitudes and practices related to hepatitis C among gay and bisexual men in the era of direct-acting antivirals
Increases in hepatitis C (HCV) infections among gay and bisexual men have recently been reported in a number of countries, with sexual transmission being the primary route of infection. Given that in countries such as Australia most gay and bisexual men living with HIV are already engaged in clinical care - as are an increasing number of HIV-negative men - there is potential for reducing onward HCV transmission through proactive testing and treat…
