peculiar
interrelation
between
bisexuality
and

Drawing upon
qualitative
research in
gay male and
bisexual
non-monogamies
in the UK,
this article
explores
bisexual
women's
accounts on
the effects of
promiscuity
allegations on
non-monogamous
sexual and
relationship
practice. Due
to the
prominence of
gender as a
differentializ
ing factor in
the discourses
on
promiscuity,
to be publicly
known as
bisexual and
non-monogamous
tends to have
particularly
stigmatizing
effects on
women. The
issue is
further
complicated by
the
intersection
of promiscuity
discourses
with
discourses on
race/ethnicity
and class. The
regimes of
violence that
go hand in
hand with the
stigmatization
through
promiscuity
allegations
police women's
sexual
behaviour
making it more
risky for
women of
certain
positioning to
come out or
move and
socialize in
certain
cultural
contexts.

Sexual Desire
among
Bisexually-Act
ive Latino Men
in New York
City: Sexualities,
Vol. 7, No. 1.
(1 February
2004), pp.
55-80.Latino
male
bisexuality
has been
studied for
the most part
with a focus
on men who
have sex with
men (MSM) and
with little
attention to
sexual desire.
The goal of
this article
is to present
a
comprehensive
understanding
of how sexual
desire is
organized,
enacted
through sexual
activity, and
interpreted in
the sexual
lives of
bisexually-act
ive Latino
men. To
achieve this
aim, an
analysis was
made of 18
sexual
histories of
bisexually
active Latino
men who
participated
in a two-year
ethnographic
study. Four
configurations
of sexual
desire were
constructed to
reflect what
was found in
this
population of
bisexually-act
ive Latino
men: (a)
lifetime
homoerotic
desire and
casual sex
with women;
(b) lifetime
heteroerotic
desire, but
commercial sex
with men; (c)
lifetime
heteroerotic/t
ransgender
desire; (d)
lifetime
sexual desire
for women and
men. These
configurations
are explored
in detail in
this article.
The analysis
presented here
is intended to
offer insights
into the
overall study
of Latino male
bisexuality
and into the
foundations
for the design
of HIV and STI
prevention
programs
directed
toward
bisexually-act
ive Latino men
and their
partners.

transmission.: Journal of the

Vol. 97, No. 7
Suppl. (July
2005)INTRODUCT
ION: Black men
who have sex
with men (MSM)
and women but
who do not
identify as
gay or
disclose their
bisexual
activities to
main female
partners, also
known as men
"on the
down-low,"
have been
cited as the
main reason
for the
increase in
HIV infections
in black
women.
METHODS: Three
online
databases
(PsychInfo,
MEDLINE and
AIDSLINE) were
searched for
scientific
articles
related to men
on the
down-low. A
total of 24
articles and
two conference
abstracts were
selected for
review.
RESULTS: Data
from existing
studies of MSM
reveal low
agreement
between
professed
sexual
identity and
corresponding
sexual
behavior among
black and
other MSM;
show that
black MSM are
more likely
than MSM of
other racial
or ethnic
groups to be
bisexually
active or
identified;
and, compared
with white
MSM, are less
likely to
disclose their
bisexual or
homosexual
activities to
others.
However, black
MSM who do not
disclose their
homosexual or
bisexual
activities
engage in a
lower
prevalence of
HIV risks than
black MSM who
do disclose;
and black men
who are
currently
bisexually
active account
for a very
small
proportion of
the overall
population of
black men
(2%).
CONCLUSION:
The high
prevalence of
HIV in the
black
community and
the greater
likelihood of
bisexuality
among black
men place
heterosexual
black women at
risk for HIV
infection.
However, the
contribution
of high-risk
heterosexual
black men to
the rising HIV
caseload among
black women
has been
largely
ignored.
Future
research must
evaluate the
relative
contributions
of bisexual
men and
exclusively
heterosexual
black men to
HIV cases
among black
women.
