abstract:Sexual health requires a holistic approach which includes sexual pleasure. Black men are often stereotyped as hypersexual with a disease research focus. This sex-positive study examined definitions of pleasure and condom use motives of heterosexual Black college men in the South. We conducted three focus groups at three universities. Four themes emerged: dimensions of pleasure, mutual pleasure, pleasure and relationship status, and condom use motives. Participants highlighted intimacy aiding in physical pleasure and emphasized using condoms even with decreased pleasure. More research is needed around young Black men and pleasure to shift negative narratives associated with their sexuality.

abstract :Objectives: This study tested the relationship between race, social desirability, and determinants of sexual risk. Design: Hierarchical regressions examined race, social desirability, and race Xsocial desirability interaction as predictors of determinants of sexual risk (positive and negative consequences of risky sex, risk exposure, condom negotiation skills, likelihood of unprotected anal intercourse) among 92 men who have sex with men (White n = 67). Results: Significant interactions for two outcomes indicated that higher social desirability was associated with lower sexual risk only among Black MSM. Conclusion: Research should consider social desirability bias when assessing risky sexual behavior among Black MSM.

abstract :This manuscript will explore how a Narrative therapy framework can effectively be integrated to serve psychotherapy clients of color concurrently navigating their HIV+ diagnosis. Often, desire levels can decrease and self-schemas can be distorted by HIV+ diagnosis. Research to date presents a dearth of clinical research and strategies to serve these women navigating their HIV diagnosis and concurrent sexual desire disorders. Additional insights are presented inclusive of a narrative excerpted sexual history interview, and embedded in a case presentation to elucidate application of specific steps to facilitate reauthoring the stories for these female clients of color.

abstract:Due to their enhanced risk for STIs, including HIV, the need for research to target young Black college students is substantial and there is a significant contribution to be made in understanding factors related to risk in an effort to design prevention interventions are specific to this group. The study included 351 Black students (M=20.42, SD=1.71, range 18–24 years) attending a Historically Black College/University (HBCU). Results reveal alcohol use and condom attitudes were the most significant predictors of sexual decision-making and behavior. The findings, along with implications, signal the need for more research with this population in order to increase prevention efforts.
