Antecedents of condom-protected oral sex among young black MSM
Oral sex among men who have sex with men is a common mode of STI transmission. This study identified the prevalence and antecedents of condom-protected oral sex among a sample of 526 young Black MSM having oral sex in the past 90 days. Men engaging in condomless anal receptive sex were less likely to report always using condoms for oral sex (P = .007). Men agreeing that “condoms help me have better sex” (P = .004) and those indicating always discussing condom use before sex were more likely to always use condoms for oral sex (P = .002). These identified antecedents may inform behavioral intervention efforts.

Abstract

Oral sex among men who have sex with men is a common mode of STI transmission. This study identified the prevalence and antecedents of condom-protected oral sex among a sample of 526 young Black MSM having oral sex in the past 90 days. Men engaging in condomless anal receptive sex were less likely to report always using condoms for oral sex (P = .007). Men agreeing that “condoms help me have better sex” (P = .004) and those indicating always discussing condom use before sex were more likely to always use condoms for oral sex (P = .002). These identified antecedents may inform behavioral intervention efforts.
