安全性行為-歷史記載 |
|
現今所稱的“安全性行為”的概念於1980年代早期由美國同性戀社團關注AIDS傳播的同性戀醫生提出。遵守“安全性行為”能夠預防性傳播疾病的感染，這已經在包括同性和異性的所有類型的性接觸中得到證明。既然全球範圍內*，每天有千百萬例性接觸發生，既然其中有越來越多的人冒著感染的危險，“安全性行為”仍然是當今最重要的預防AIDS的策略。
*據估計，全球範圍內，每天有1.2億次性交行為發生。

Safer Sex - Historical Notes |
The concept of „safe sex“- now often called
"safer sex“ - was developed in the early 1980s by gay physicians concerned about the spread of AIDS in the American gay community. Practicing “safer sex” can prevent infections with sexually transmitted diseases. This has proven true for all kinds of sexual contact, both homosexual and heterosexual. Since many millions of sexual contacts occur every day around the globe*, and since an increasing number of them carry the risk of infection, “safer sex” has remained the most important AIDS prevention strategy to this day.
* It is estimated that ca. 120 million acts of sexual intercourse take place every day around the world.
