Crossing borders to buy sex: Taiwanese men negotiating gender, class and nationality in the Chinese sex industry-by Feb 24th 2017
There are a number of reasons for supporting PrEP, but also a large number of reasons not to. Sex workers who have been part of trials have concerns about side effects and, given the failure rate in 2 African Women’s studies, efficacy. Also concerns about clients offering PrEP in place of condoms (how long must you take PrEP as a female sex worker before it is effective for vaginal or anal sex? If a male sex worker working with male clients, how long must you take it before it is effective if you are a bottom or a top? Would PrEP erode condom culture and the ability of sex workers to protect themselves from all STIs? If you are working in a country where sex work is illegal, would PrEP replace condoms as evidence used by the police?
Guidelines issued by WHO, UNAIDS, CDC, etc., all state that condoms *must* be used with PrEP, but on the ground, the reality is that most don’t. The reason why bacterial STI rates didn’t increase may have been because they were already high. With the increase in BB porn and BB parties, bacterial STIs (gonorrhoea, chlamydia, and syphilis), were already high. In NZ these three have been increasing amongst gay men since the rise of BB porn, with a related rise in HIV. http://www.nswp.org/resource/prep
