Longitudinal associations between the disruption of incarceration and community re-entry on substance use risk escalation among Black men who have sex with men; A causal analysis
2020, Drug and Alcohol DependenceCitation Excerpt :Black men who have sex with men (BMSM) are more likely to use substances compared to non-Hispanic white heterosexual individuals, particularly stimulants and alcohol use; this disparity has existed for decades (Reback et al., 2014; Stall and Wiley, 1988); additionally, it is well documented that BMSM are more likely to use specific substances, including crack cocaine, with one study finding that 94 % of MSM crack smokers were Black (McKirnan et al., 2001).
Latent class analysis of substance use among men who have sex with men in Malaysia: Findings from the Asian Internet MSM Sex Survey
2015, Drug and Alcohol DependenceCitation Excerpt :Despite recent breakthroughs in HIV prevention and treatment, the HIV epidemic continues to grow among men who have sex with men (MSM) worldwide (Beyrer et al., 2012). Traditionally, MSM reported higher prevalence of use of mind-altering substances, especially non-injection drugs, compared to their heterosexual counterparts (Degenhardt et al., 2008; Stall and Wiley, 1988; Thiede et al., 2003). The intertwining epidemics of substance use and HIV among MSM has been well-established (Stall and Purcell, 2000).
Purple drank prevalence and characteristics of misusers of codeine cough syrup mixtures
2013, Addictive BehaviorsCitation Excerpt :However, it is somewhat surprising that use is higher among those who identified themselves as being homosexual, bisexual, or transgender, as purple drank is associated with rap music and competitive, violent male sports (such as American football and basketball)—which scholars have argued often foster traditional views of masculinity and a homophobic culture (Abrams, 2000; Anderson, 2002; Kubrin, 2005; Messner, 1992; Messner & Sabo, 1990; Plummer, 1999). Although, the higher use of purple drank among LGBT individuals may simply reflect a higher rate of drug use in general (see Brewster & Harker Tillman, 2012; Cochran & Cauce, 2006; Corliss et al., 2010; Hughes & Eliason, 2002; Hughes, Szalacha, & McNair, 2010; McCabe, Botswick, Hughes, West, & Boyd, 2010; McKirnan & Peterson, 1989; Stall & Wiley, 1988; Talley, Sher, & Littlefield, 2010). LGBT individuals in the survey reported significantly higher levels of other drug abuse (such as 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), synthetic cannabinoids, heroin, cocaine; not reported) in addition to purple drank.
