Women refuse condoms

Women are significantly less likely to ask their sexual partners use condoms during anal sex than during vaginal than as researchers found. Meanwhile, the risk of contracting HIV in both cases is quite high.

Tens of thousands of New Yorkers practiced unprotected anal sex as found Dr. Tom Farley, director of health services of the city. "Many of them are well aware of the risks of contracting the human immunodeficiency virus - emphasizes Farley. - And almost all women are well aware that practicing anal sex men at gay contacts rather run the risk, if you do not use condoms. But they themselves how much something all often prefer unprotected anal sex. "

US doctors can not clearly explain this phenomenon. Perhaps some women seriously believe that this kind of sex is less dangerous for them than vaginal, because the practice is not as common. But according to statistics chance pass HIV   anal sex higher than vaginal, since the higher the number of such contacts microtraumas, and through which the virus is able to get into the organism.

Currently, only 23% of women use condoms during anal sex As it was known during the interview. The number of men who resort to anal sex protected when dealing with other men is 61%.

But among the fairer sex, preferring unprotected anal sex , Assays HIV   pass only 35%, and among supporters protected - more than 63%. Another curious paradox.
