The heterosexuality of the HIV epidemic is often independent of the woman's behavior. The difficulty of bargaining for safe sex with a steady or occasional partner is a major risk factor. Apart from the category of sex workers, in regions where polygamy and the option for multiple sexual partnerships is determined by the partners, there is an increase in the possibility of women being contaminated by the virus. In this context, it is important to raise awareness of the risk of HIV infection among partners (men/women) in order to increase the chances of sexual health without too many worries.
