Does attractiveness influence condom use intentions in women who have sex with men?
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases May 30, 2019
Eleftheriou A, et al. - Using an online questionnaire, researchers queried 480 English-speaking women who have sex with men who were between 18-32 years old to assess the correlations between perceived attractiveness, perceived sexual health status, condom use intentions, and condom use resistance in women. The more attractive a man was judged to be, the more likely it was that participants were willing to have sex with him and the less likely they were to plan to use a condom during sex. They identified no significant correlation between the average perceived sexually transmitted infection (STI) likelihood for a man and his average perceived attractiveness or with participants’ average willingness to have sex with him. They noted a direct correlation of a participant's perception of herself as attractive to her overall belief of men having an STI.
