Book excerpt: Latino Truck Driver Trade: Sex and HIV In Central America uncovers the incredible danger that truck drivers put themselves in by risking HIV infection and why Latin sexual culture does not always define men who participate in sexual acts with other men as "homosexual." Exploring the concept of "machismo" and why truck drivers act very "manly" (to avoid being teased or being made fun of) through interviews with truck drivers, this detailed account gives insight into how friends pressure others to perform sexual acts, drink alcohol, and take drugs in order to "fit in""--Jacket.
