- Summary
- By the end of December 1996 a total of 42,563 AIDS cases were diagnosed among Latino gay and bisexual men. In a world of safer sex, where the message is out to use condoms, why is it that a staggering proportion of Latino gay men contract HIV each year? Rafael Diaz provides us with a pivotal examination of how sexual silence, machismo, homophobia, poverty and racism continue to contribute to high risk practices among Latino gay men.
