San Jose Adult Entertainment: Avoiding ‘Side Dish’ will save you trouble
The findings of the modes of transmission study conducted last year indicates that the incidence of HIV is rising especially among married couples aged 30-40.
The study indicates that 44% of new infections were among persons involved in multiple sexual partnerships (that is, those reporting two or more partners), including their regular partners, and about 11% were related to sex work.
Multiple partnerships, which is regarded as a “common phenomenon” in Uganda, is one of the reasons HIV prevalence is now highest in the older, married populations, a group that is currently not the target of prevention programmes.
Multiple Concurrent Partner (MCP) means that a man or woman has more than one sexual partner at the same time. The partners can overlap for weeks, months or years.These relationships have many names, including; “away games,” “balanced diet,” “side dish,” “pre-testing”, “spare tyre”, “left hand”, “suitcase”, “side mirror”, “extra time”, “panadol”, and “take-away”. This is regarded as a common practice in Africa where a man can have as many women, besides his marital wife.
