Begin the activity by asking participants to think about situations that mayput them at risk for STIs or HIV.

Each can also be given more than one phrase.3. Ask each pair to read their phrase, discuss what it means, and decide if theyagree or disagree with the statement and why.4. When they have finished, each pair should read their phrase out loud andshare their responses with the larger group.5.

What other type of support do men and women need to protect themselvesfrom STIs and HIV? Is this kind of support available in the community?Many of men’s risky sexual behaviors are rooted, to a large extent, in how boys andmen are raised and socialized. These behaviors often put both men and youngwomen at risk. It is important for men to be aware of how gender norms influencedecisions and behaviors and to think critically about the impact of those decisionsand behaviors.Resource Sheet : I Am at Risk When… 21 ?52
