- Abstract: Background: Studies demonstrated that men who have sex with men (MSM) have different lifestyles and occupied different cultural and social spaces. In Brazil, 25% of HIV infection was by homosexual/bisexual transmission. Objectives: describe how sexual subcultures of MSM, that attended bars and discos in two different districts, occupied different landscapes of vulnerability, and describe subcultures and sexual practices. Methods: ethnographic mapping of two districts of São Paulo, application of questionnaires in 500 men about: demographic data, risk perception, sexual practices, AIDS prevention. Interventions were applied during 12 months, with distribution of condom, lubricants, and informative material. Results: Ethnographic mapping showed that Centro district had traditional and oldest bars, more hustlers’ men and travesties, with identity images based on gender roles. Jardins district had refined bars, with image identity based on gay identity. The questionnaire demonstrated that 52% had risk sexual practices with regular partners, and 42% with casual partners. 71% did the antibody test, and 5% were positive for HIV. We found significant differences between districts. Men who go to bars and discos at Centro: were poorest, less educated, black; had lower risk perception; they where less confident of preventive methods for aids; they have more sexual risk practices; agree more that they don’t use condom because passion and because there are medicines to AIDS.
