The authors 1989/90 exploration of HIV/AIDS-related beliefs and practices of self-identified bisexuals men in prison who have sex with other men and men who are lovers of transvestites has determined that a wide range of behaviorally bisexual men in Costa Rica practice unsafe sex with both male and female partners. While self-identified bisexual men have reasonably good knowledge of HIV and AIDS they continue to expose themselves and their partners to the risk of infection having more unprotected sex with males and females than exclusively homosexual men. The belief that vaginal sex is relatively safe intimacy trust and the perceived difficulty of introducing condom use into an ongoing relationship are factors which impede their condom use with women. In prison the absence of prison policy on HIV prevention and the nonavailability of condoms as well as perceptions of masculinity and femininity encourage the practice of unsafe sex between men. Condom non-use is a symbol of trust and commitment between transvestites in the red light district of San Jose and their lovers something which distinguishes the regular partners of transvestites from clients. These findings are based upon questionnaire responses from 60 self-identified bisexuals; interview questionnaire and focus group data from openly homosexual male prisoners at La Reforma; and interview and questionnaire data from transvestites in San Joses red light district.

This paper discusses the historical roots of bisexual behavior in the Dominican Republic the construction of masculinity phallicism and homophobia clandestine bisexual arrangements bisexuality among homotropic sex workers and bisexual behavior and the risk of HIV. Bi-eroticism bisexual behavior and bisexuality seem to be inherent in the social construction of masculinity and gender-role relationships among many Dominican males. There remains however a strong stigma to the publicly known receptive partner in male homosexual intercourse. A complex matrix of phallicist homophobic pederastic and xenophilic attitudes characteristic of modern Dominican culture both attracts and repels young men from each other. That conflict most likely reinforced by a fear of womens likely homophobic attitudes and behavior tends to sustain among bisexual males a high level of impulsive clandestine behavior deceptiveness to female partners and infidelity to male partners with short-lived affective bonds guilt and self-denial. Research indicates that no less than two of every three men who have sex with men also have sex with women. The behavior of these men can facilitate the spread of sexually transmitted diseases and HIV. Extensive and frequent unprotected receptive anal sex for money is practiced by at least 33% of these men mostly lower-class youths.
