BACKGROUND
Despite being understood as sites for the potential spread of sexually transmissible infections, we know remarkably little about gay men's sex venues and how they are perceived in the gay community. The present paper aims to describe community attitudes to sex venues and towards the gay men who use them.
METHODS
Self-administered questionnaire at a gay community social event.
RESULTS
Men who use gay men's sex venues differ from non-users in relation to their age, the number of casual sexual partners they have, their openness about their sexuality and their comfort with sexualised spaces. Also, not all venues are equal and appear to attract diverse clienteles with particular characteristics.
CONCLUSION
Differentiation among gay men's sex venues and the men who use them may offer opportunities for targeting interventions for sexual health promotion.
背景
尽管同性恋男性的性场所被认为是性传播感染潜在传播的场所，但我们对这些场所以及它们在同性恋群体中的认知了解甚少。本文旨在描述社区对性场所及使用这些场所的同性恋男性的态度。
方法
在一次同性恋社区社交活动中进行自填式问卷调查。
结果
使用同性恋男性性场所的男性在年龄、拥有的临时性伴侣数量、性取向的开放性以及对性化空间的舒适度方面与不使用者存在差异。此外，并非所有场所都是一样的，似乎吸引着具有特定特征的不同客户群体。
结论
同性恋男性性场所之间以及使用这些场所的男性之间的差异可能为针对性健康促进干预措施提供机会。
