BACKGROUND: The pre-marital sex and live-in relationship among young people are
increasing at an alarming rate. Remote consequences of such high risk behaviors
are increase in the incidence of STDs (including HIV), unsafe and illegal
abortion, adolescent pregnancy and motherhood, single mother child/abandoned
child, juvenile delinquency and many more. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was
to investigate the high-risk sexual behaviors in depth, influenced by various
factors including age at sexual debut, type of partners, consistent condom usage,
hostel stay, socioeconomic class, etc. among college-going male youth. MATERIALS
AND METHODS: The study was conducted in Jamnagar among undergraduate (18-24
years) male college students. A total of 450 students were randomly selected from
three colleges of Jamnagar. RESULTS: Out of all 450 participants, 49.11% were in
the age group of 18-20 years. Among study subjects, 13.78% had one or more
pre-marital sexual exposures. In students with positive pre-marital sexual
history, the various sex partners were girlfriends (95.16%), commercial sex
workers (14.5%), homosexuals (6.45%), and multiple sex partners (33.88%). Among
students, 62.9% were using condom consistently. Three-fifth of the ones indulged
in premarital sex, were in the age group of 16-20 at the time of sexual debut.
CONCLUSIONS: Most of the students were quite young (16-18 years) at the time of
first pre-marital sexual exposure. Consistent condom usage was not uniform. The
students staying at hostels, indulged in premarital sex, were found to have
multiple sex partners.
