dc.description.abstractA priority of AIDS prevention in Botswana is to reduce multiple concurrent sexual partnerships. The study shows that male choice-disability and female disposable income are associated with multiple concurrent partners. Two aspects of “choice disability” were considered: domestic violence and acquiescence to high risk sex (those who said they would have sex if their partner refused to use a condom, despite believing their partner could have HIV). Among 768 male and 1784 female respondents, 10% reported multiple sexual partners in the month prior to the survey; 19% of men and 6% of women.en
