Abstract

Men who have sex with men (MSM) is the community that has become the largest epicenter
in the transmission of HIV / AIDS. At present the MSM community is a marginalized
community, so it is difficult to observe its development, this is because of the negative
stigma from the community environment towards MSM. So they use social media in forming
communities and offering sexual relations. The aim of study was to analyze the social
media that were most often used by MSM in sexual transactions activity. A cross sectional
approach was applied in this study with a sample of 58 people, selected by snowball and
using a questionnaire to collect quantitative data. Respondent characteristics data were
analyzed descriptively, then bivariate analysis to determine the relationship of independent
variables with dependent variables and independent variables that could be included in
multivariate analysis. Multivariate analysis with logistic regression was used to determine
the effect of independent variables on sexual transactions conducted by MSM. The results found that, Grindr social media is the most dominant among Whatsapp, Facebook, Me
Chat and other social media. Meanwhile, based on the technique of having sex, sex
activeness is seen in MSM who have anal and oral relations. It was also reported in the
results of research that getting younger MSM increasingly increases sexual desire. The
conclusions of this study are MSM who use Grindr, with anal and oral sex techniques as
well as young age, which increases sexual activity.
