Abstract

Very limited knowledge is available about African women's control over their sexual relations with husbands or other stable partners in situations where there is a high risk of STDs and HIV/AIDS. Such control must be seen as encompassing women's control over their sexuality and reproduction as well as the broader areas over which they can make decisions. The paper examines other research findings in sub-Saharan Africa, and then reports a study carried out by survey and anthropological methodologies among the Yoruba people in Ado-Ekiti, a town in southwestern Nigeria. Because the AIDS epidemic is still at an early stage in Nigeria and because of the relation of STD infection to HIV-transmission, as well as the probability that the behaviour developed for limiting STD transmission will subsequently be employed to limit HIV transmission, the study focused on STDs. Yoruba women have a considerable ability to refuse sexual relations for a limited time, and they are placed at greater risk of STD infection by their ignorance of whether their partner is infected than by a lack of ability to control the situation when STDs have been identified. This ability may be more limited in the case of AIDS because of its longer duration.
