This study sought to analyze prevalence and correlates of online racialized sexual discrimination (RSD), or sexualized discriminatory treatment, in the context of sexualized encounters, among cisgender men and transgender individuals who have sex with men at risk for HIV. Data were collected as part of a baseline survey from a large national sample ( = 2,166). Among participants of color ( = 1,042), 84.9% had experienced RSD in the past 6 months, and transgender participants experienced similar levels of RSD as cisgender men. Experience of RSD was associated with older age and more frequent experiences of general discrimination, but not with geographic location, mental health symptoms, sexual risk behavior, or internalized homonegativity. These findings confirm that RSD is highly prevalent among sexual and gender minority individuals of color who have sex with men. Implications and areas for future research are discussed.
本研究旨在分析在有性接触的背景下,艾滋病毒感染风险较高的顺性别男性和跨性别男性群体中,普遍存在的、与网络种族化性歧视(RSD)相关的因素,即性歧视待遇。数据是从一个大型全国性样本(n=2166)的基线调查中收集的。在有色人种参与者中(n=1042),84.9%的人在过去 6 个月中经历过 RSD,而跨性别参与者经历的 RSD 与顺性别男性相似。经历 RSD 与年龄较大和更频繁地经历一般歧视有关,但与地理位置、心理健康症状、性风险行为或内化的同性恋消极态度无关。这些发现证实,在与男性发生性行为的有色人种的性少数群体和性别少数群体中,RSD 非常普遍。文章讨论了其意义和未来研究的方向。
