Abstract
At the intersection of homophobia and racism: Sociocultural context and the sexual health of South Asian Canadian gay and bisexual men.
Highlights
South Asian gay and bisexual men in Canada are at risk for experiencing both intersectional structural oppressions related to homophobia and racism as well as for the acquisition of sexually transmitted infections including HIV
The facilitators used a semi-structured interview protocol covering topics about sexual health of South Asian gay and bisexual men, including their how their home backgrounds and their experiences of being South Asian in predominantly white gay spaces affected their sexual health, and how these experiences shaped their attitudes about sexual health services
Intersectional stigma led to loneliness and social isolation among South Asian gay and bisexual men, and limited social power in sexual relationships
