Migration and sexual partnerships among unmarried young men in Thailand: a longitudinal approach.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVES:Migrants typically report more sexual behavior than non-migrants. In existing work, the potentially confounding effects of selection loom large. Our objective is to discern whether migrants actually do engage in more sexual activity than their non-migrating counterparts, once selection is accounted for. METHODS:We used three waves of data from a longitudinal panel study in Thailand. Panel members were rural unmarried men, some of whom subsequently migrated to urban areas and were re-interviewed there. Migrants were compared to their non-migrant counterparts and to a separate sample of long-term urban dwellers. RESULTS:There were no differences between eventual migrants and non-migrant counterparts in sexual partnerships before migration. Migration increased sexual partnerships with stable partners and strangers, compared with rural non-migrants. CONCLUSIONS:Unmarried men who moved to urban areas had increased sexual partnerships with stable partners and strangers. Without proper means of protection, this pattern of behavior puts these men and their sexual partners at elevated risk of unwanted pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Public health programs should target unmarried male migrants for pregnancy control and STI prevention.
