AIDS, sexuality, and sexual control.

The AIDS epidemic is discussed in terms of its effect on general sexual attitudes and behavior of homosexual and bisexual men, then, in particular, on the issue of control over one's sexual behavior. Problems encountered in the formulation of the concept of sexual control are discussed along with relevant theoretical constructs. A group treatment program for homosexual and bisexual men with problems of sexual control is described, along with findings and discussions regarding the effect of such treatment on sexual behavior.
