Sexual Risk Behaviors with Male Partners
The next series of questions will ask about sex you have had with MALE partners. These questions are
only asking about anal sex you have had with your male partners. They are NOT asking about oral sex
(giving/getting blow jobs or head).
Anal sex is when one partner puts their penis into the other partner’s anus (butt). The anal sex that
you have can be insertive, that is when you put your penis into someone’s anus (butt). This is often
called “topping.” Or it can be receptive, that is when your partner puts their penis in your anus (butt).
This is often called “bottoming.”

Sexual Risk Behaviors with Transgender Partners
The next series of questions will ask about sex you have had with TRANSGENDER partners. These
questions are only asking about anal or vaginal sex you have had with your transgender partners.
They are NOT asking about oral sex (giving/getting blow jobs or head).
Anal sex is when one partner puts their penis into the other partner’s anus (butt). The anal sex that
you have can be insertive, that is when you put your penis into someone’s anus (butt). This is often
called “topping.” Or it can be receptive, that is when your partner puts their penis in your anus (butt).
This is often called “bottoming. “ Vaginal sex means putting your penis in someone’s vagina.
