Abstract
Conversations on sex and related matters are considered to be private in most Indian communities. Therefore, community-based research on sexuality is often challenging. Considering the paucity of studies on the sexual health of men especially in settings not known for HIV/AIDS, research methods have not evolved adequately. The authors describe the approaches used to discuss sexual health concerns with young men, the challenges faced and the ways in which they were countered. The learnings drawn from this study may provide insights for designing community interventions to address the beliefs and practices of young men concerning sexual health.

The Indian Journal of Social Work (IJSW) is the flagship publication of the Tata Institute of Social Sciences, and is brought out by its Publications Unit. Published every January, April, July and October, the TISS entered its 77th year of uninterrupted publishing, a record in journal publishing, in 2016. The first issue of the IJSW was brought out in June 1940. It focussed on two aspects of Child Welfare - Children in Industry and Juvenile Delinquency. The main objectives of the IJSW are to: cater to the need for literature on social work, and be a medium of dissemination of indigenous work being carried out in the country. Over the years, the IJSW has kept pace with changing perspectives and developments in the field of social work and social work education. The IJSW has brought out over 50 Special/Focus issues since 1940.
