How To Masturbate for Women
Masturbation is considered by many to be the cornerstone of sexual health. Because you get to do it by yourself, on your own terms, it’s probably the best way to learn what turns you on. Women are raised with little information about their genitals, and sex, including masturbation doesn’t come naturally for everyone. Some women orgasm from clitoral stimulation, others enjoy vaginal penetration or G spot stimulation. Remember, there’s no wrong way to masturbate; everyone is different! Below you'll find some tips on how to masturbate for women.
Difficulty: N/A
Time Required: 30 minutes to several hours
Here's How:
1. Get yourself in the mood for masturbation.
Relax as much as you can.Take a warm bath or have a glass of wine. Ensure your privacy: turn off the phone, lock the door, send the kids to a neighbor's. Find a comfy position. Most women start out lying on their backs, legs bent and spread apart, with feet on the ground. Remove most or all of your clothing.
2. Fantasize for masturbation.
Recall an exciting past sexual encounter or elaborate on a favorite sexual fantasy. If you need a boost, look at a sexy magazine, read an erotic story, or watch an adult video. Allow your mind to explore any images--anything goes as long as it heightens your excitement.
3. Explore all parts of your body.
Run your hands along parts of your body, lingering along areas that are more responsive to touch than others. Look at your genitals in a mirror (especially if you're unfamiliar with them) and caress the different parts to see what feels especially good. Find and touch your inner and outer labia, your clitoris, your vagina and your perineum.
4. Touch yourself.
Using one or two fingers, rhythmically stroke the different parts of your vulva, paying particular attention to your clitoris and labia. Experiment with different types of pressure, speed and motion. Try placing a finger on either side of the clitoris and stroking up and down, or placing two fingers on the clitoral hood and rubbing in a circular motion.
5. Experiment.
Try different types of touch: stroke, tickle, knead, pinch, or lightly pull your genitals. Try using one or several fingers, the palm of your hand, even your knuckles.
6. Build up excitement.
Learn to hold onto sexual excitement by building up and then reducing or temporarily stopping the stimulation. Pay attention to how your body is responding. It will tell you the particular stroke that feels best and when to pick up or slow down the tempo.
7. Breathe and rock.
Breathe deeply rather than hold your breath. This helps release the sexual energy, rather than fight it. Rock your pelvis as you would during intercourse. Rhythmically clench and release your PC muscle (using a dildo for vaginal penetration can help).
8. Getting over the top.
If your hand gets tired, give yourself a rest, switch hands, or try a vibrator. If you're on the brink of orgasm, but can't quite get over the hump, try altering you’re breathing, or focusing on a really hot fantasy. Give yourself extra stimulation: caress your nipples, or try also thrusting your other fingers or a dildo in and out of your vagina.
9. Ride the Wave.
As you begin to orgasm, continue the stimulation through the orgasm. Lighten up on the stimulation during the first extremely sensitive moments but keep it going to enjoy those little pleasurable aftershocks. Your first orgasm may feel like a blip or a blast, but the more you practice, the more variety you will experience.
10. Practice makes for perfect masturbation.
Don't worry if you don't come on your first try, keep practicing, or try some of the variations below.
Tips:
1. Vibrators take some of the manual labor out of masturbation by providing direct, intense physical stimulation to the clitoris.
2. Water helps many women learn to masturbate. Lie back with legs spread in a bath with a shower hose and direct the stream of water at your clitoris. Vary the pressure, the pulsation, and the temperature. Alternate methods: slide your butt over the drain so your legs are up in the air and your genitals are up under the tub faucet (rather awkward but do-able), or use Jacuzzi jets.
3. Rub against something--a pillow, the corner of some furniture, a dildo.
4. Dildos can be a pleasurable accompaniment to clitoral masturbation, as they offer the fullness of penetration and can also stimulate the G-Spot.

How To Masturbate for Men
Masturbation is considered by many to be the cornerstone of sexual health. Most men believe that they already know everything about their own genitals and sexual response. It’s all out there, boys will be boys, etc. But just because you know how your tools work, doesn’t mean you can build the Eiffel Tower. In fact most men experience a fraction of their full erotic and orgasmic potential. Read on for simple and fun tips on how to masturbate for men.
Difficulty: N/A
Time Required: Male masturbation doesn't have to always be a "quick affair". Take your time and enjoy.
Here's How:
1. Make time for more than a quickie.
Most guys first learn to masturbate in secret and furtive ways. They do it quickly and need to figure out what to do with the evidence afterward. This can create a powerful pattern of masturbating quickly, without paying attention to where your sexual arousal can take you. To start exploring something different, make sure you have some extended time and privacy for yourself, where you aren’t trying to finish quick before someone interrupts.
2. Turn off the porn (just for a while) and tune into your body.
Not everyone likes porn, but a lot of guys do, and while porn can be great, it also takes you out of your body a bit with the fantasy. This can distract you from what’s actually happening in your body. You don’t need to throw the porn away, but for a few times, masturbate without porn, and objectify yourself for a change!
3. Do a…dry…run through.
Bad pun aside, it’s a good idea to try the above suggestions, and then just masturbate as you normally would. As you do this pay attention:
* Changes in your breathing: Does it become shallow and quick, slower and deeper?
* Changes in your body: is there tension in some places, and relaxation in others? Is this the same every time you masturbate?
* How does it feel just before you have an orgasm?
* How does it feel as you orgasm, and immediately post-orgasm?
4. Time to switch it up.
Men learn early in their lives the most effective way to get themselves off. And most never waver from the utilitarian approach to self love. But sex is less like a well oiled machine, and more like a chaotic food fair, where there is an endless selection of ways to satisfy your appetites. So it’s time to throw a wrench in the works and shake up your routine. Try any combination of the following suggestions:
5. Does your left hand know what your right hand is doing?
Do you always use the same one hand to masturbate? Most guys do. If you’re among them, start with the simple tip of switching hands. It can feel strange at first, the rhythm might be off, it’s almost like sex with someone new for the first time. Enjoy the newness, and see if a new hand can teach an old hand some tricks.
6. Experiment with positions.
If you aren’t an experimental type, it’s time to start. If you’re used to masturbating lying down on your back, try sitting up. If you normally sit in a chair, try standing, or kneeling. As with all these changes, this might feel ridiculous at first, and you’ll probably go back to old faithful, but see what masturbation feels like in different positions, and notice if it brings with it any new sensations.
7. Get your hips moving.
The way your body moves when you masturbate is probably very different from the way it moves when you’re having sex with someone else. Many men don’t move at all when they masturbate. Try to move your hips when you masturbate, simulating the thrusting of intercourse. Notice how moving your hips in different ways can bring you closer to, and at times take you farther away from, the point of orgasm.
8. Use different hand strokes.
Most men learn early on that a vigorous stroke does the trick. This intense up and down stimulation usually ends in a good orgasm. But there are dozens of other strokes that each bring with them different sensations, and different orgasms. Roll your penis in between your hands, moving your hands up and down your shaft. Try using long twisting strokes instead of just up and down. Experiment with different movements, pressures, and speeds.
9. Explore your shaft.
While most of the nerve endings on the penis are at the head, and specifically the frenulum, many men will have spots on their shaft that are unusually sensitive. Try putting one hand at the base of your penis and press it towards your body while experimenting with different hand strokes along the shaft of your penis. Treat this like a treasure hunt, and try to feel the difference between one side and the other, between stimulation near the base and up near the tip.
10. Reach around, yourself.
For many men the balls (testicles) are a very sensitive area that responds well to feelings of touch and pressure. Take your forefinger and thumb and make them in a circle at the top of your scrotum. Gently tug on your scrotum as your masturbating. This is both a way to prevent you from ejaculating and a way to extend sexual feelings in your body. Experiment with other kinds of touch including tickling, scratching, and rubbing.
11. Check out the neighborhood.
While the penis and scrotum tend to be the epicenter of masturbatory attention, if you’re looking to open things up a bit, be sure to take a tour of some other nearby areas. The perineum, the area between the scrotum and anus, is very sensitive to pressure and massage, and rubbing it provides external prostate stimulation. Speaking of which, don’t be afraid to explore the anus, both externally and by using a finger for penetration.
12. Bring it all together.
Not everything you try is going to do it for you, but the idea behind the above tips is to try lots of different things, and then incorporate whatever you like into the ways you regularly masturbate. Maybe it’s a different stroke, or position, or breathing technique. Obviously there is no one, correct way to masturbate, and even if you’ve got something that works for you, consider the fact that there could be more out there if you experiment with it.
Tips:
1. Another myth about male masturbation is that you shouldn’t use anything other than you hand. While your hand might be doing the trick, adding some accessories can make the stimulation even more intense, and inspire more creativity with yourself, and with partners.
2. Get a good quality personal lubricant . If it’s only for masturbation you can use something that’s oil based without worrying about condom compatibility. Oil based products are better because they won’t dry up.
3. Add a sex toy into the mix. It might be a vibrator, a dildo, or a cock ring (if you’ve never tried one I recommend trying one on your own before you use it with a partner). Sex toys can add a completely new kind of stimulation, and accentuate the manual stimulation your doing.

Masturbation the solution to HIV crisis
Are you also shocked by the statistics given about Zimbabwe? Are we not marching right into a wall, with the HIV/AIDS pandemic blighting a country already grappling with many other problems?
In Zimbabwe the pandemic is reported to be causing the deaths of more than 5000 people each week. A significantly large part of the population is infected; reports say 1 in every 5.
The enormity of the pandemic has among many other effects, fuelled a rapid growth in the number of orphans which has swelled to well over 2 million making ours the country with the highest number of orphans per capita in the world.
Since the 1990s, the HIV/AIDS virus has slashed the average life expectancy from 61 to about 28 years. It is reported that only about 40 000 people are on anti-retroviral drugs out of a possible 180 000.
And more than 2 000 people are reported to be getting infected every month. The health delivery system is almost dysfunctional to an extent that most sick people do not seek treatment. The news we then hear of Zimbabwe’s declining HIV prevalence should therefore be met not only with scepticism but also confusion in view of the country’s volatile political and economic climate.
The statistics so presented could be seriously skewed. What do the true statistics reveal about the Zimbabwean scenario? These statistics provide an insight into what is happening in Zimbabwe. Most people are still taking a very casual approach to the HIV/AIDS issue despite the devastating impact it has had on the country. Multiple sexual relationships are still so much in practise, with most using them as a strategy to temporarily evade the stress brought about by the economic and social hardships they are subjected to.
And most people believe that they are just too smart to be at risk. Most marriages in Zimbabwe still come about as a result of pregnancy, thus clearly indicating that premarital unprotected sex is still so much in practise, for most without prior HIV testing, which is in most cases still much resented.
In any case the issue of HIV testing looses its intended purpose if partners will still engage in multiple unprotected sexual relationships after the testing. Zimbabwe’s escalating HIV/AIDS statistics only but reveal that a lot is happening behind the scenes, which people deny; a lot of cheating in relations.
For Zimbabweans most of the HIV infections are a result of multiple sexual relationships. In cases where people are aware that they are HIV positive, most do not disclose to their partners and instead choose to infect them. It then becomes imperative that every one question themselves about the issue of trust; how much trust should we vest in our partners, if any trust at all, or should we not only but trust God? More so given that the HIV virus is notorious for its capability to ‘hide’ in the blood stream for the longest time without having any of its symptoms showing up.
It appears most Zimbabweans so often a time unnecessarily discard their entire thought systems, thought systems on issues which affect them, about one’s tomorrow, about the importance of health and many other pertinent issues; there is inherent in most, an unwillingness to use their powers of observation and reasoning.
There is slowness to react to changing situations in one’s environment and there is also some form of passivity; an attitude which also raises its ugly head through the lack of mass public action over the turmoil bedevilling the country, politically, socially and economically.
Where then are we heading as a nation? Are we not facing a bleak future? In 5 to 10 years time, are we not likely to have ¾ of the population infected with HIV or wiped away by AIDS? Unless of cause if people are going to take very urgent drastic shifts in behaviour. What we observe should not however be a source of despair and discouragement.
Instead we should exploit these observations to our advantage; use them as a source of encouragement- as a fuel that will drive the engine of change- change in the ways we have been running our lives, change in our focus in life, change in our perception of issues.
Because we are the change agents, we are the ones who can and will make a difference, the ones who can shape our own destiny. We need to have a sense of responsibility through taking ownership of our own destiny. What weapon and shield then can we use for survival as a nation?
Does not the solution lie in us rediscovering ourselves, re-identifying ourselves, getting to know ourselves better, revisiting our choices in line with the changing environment that we are surviving in and are exposed to? And it is all about really revisiting our choices when it comes to the subject of sex; each one asking themselves whether there is anything to lose through revisiting their route to sexual appeasement.
Should not then the solution lie in protected sex for all those engaging in sex, married and unmarried; total abstinence for others and/or masturbation? For Zimbabwe at least, it downs to me that we adopt these options. We have certainly reached this last resort. This now stands as our only last option on our set of cards, our one and only hope for survival.
Masturbation remains the only safe and healthy sexual outlet other than abstinence. Furthermore it is argued that the self-stimuli derived from masturbation are equally self- comforting and sexual arousing.
So there is nothing really to lose, should one resort to this option. If anything they have a better guarantee of a long life. In the light of the frightening HIV/AIDS scenario, we are strongly advocating masturbation for Zimbabweans; masturbation, the only clean way to sexual appeasement.
Whilst the condom has generally been promoted as clean, there is always room for some exchange of dirt between partners. In any case; there are always some people, Zimbabweans too who need no partners in life, those who are happier alone. And yet they may have never heard about masturbation.
So, with the elections coming up in a couple of days to come; the new Government in waiting should in addition to the female and male condom, also avail affordable or free vibrators and promote masturbation for the Zimbabweans who want to remain clean, and yet also get sexual appeasement. Whilst some may argue that it is not in line with our African culture, yet still, we are here looking at the devastating effects that sex has brought unto the African and how we can deal with it.
In as much as we, Africans do not like talking about such issues as sex, yet still the truth remains, we have it behind the scenes, in hiding, and we are contracting the deadly virus. That reminds me how often some of us in open claim not to be indulging, yet we get the evidence through pregnancy.
Should we not revisit and adjust our culture so as to live? The new Zimbabwean Minister had better look into this if she wants us to live longer. For the married who desire to have children, unprotected sex could only be practised immediately upon undergoing HIV testing.
Why rule out this option, when we are responsible for reducing the matrimonial bed to a mere venue for receiving the HIV virus? In as much as these solutions may sound extreme, we find it imperative to highlight that as a nation, Zimbabwe is now at a Choice Point. We have reached that critical juncture where we now have to make that crucial choice; that choice which will determine one’s span of life.
Desired now are solutions which suit our nation well, a peculiar nation whose statistics have reached extreme levels; a nation worst hit by the HIV/AIDS pandemic, a nation ranking last in almost all developmental issues. So it is up to you, the ball is in your court really to make your choice this very day before it is too late.

Sex involve in Ngayap?
According to Padoch (1982:p92-3)
“The exact age of Iban at first sexual union is a topic difficult to explore, partially because of the usual reticence of women to discuss the subject, but mostly because of the impossibility of determining precise chronological ages. It is probable that among women in the Engkari region, courtship commences at about sixteen or seventeen years of age, while among men a somewhat later age, of eighteen or nineteen, is indicated. I have found no reason to assume that ages at which courtship begins in Bintulu are different. Whether there has been any change over time in the ages at which young Iban begin to court is uncertain. Several older women assured me that the age at first courting has declined, but there is no possible way of verifying this allegation”.
Gomes (1911)
“The mode of courtship among the Dyaks is peculiar. No courting goes on by day, but at night, when all is quiet, a young lover creeps to the side of the curtain of his lady-love, and awakes her. The girls sleep apart from their parents--sometimes in the same room, but more often in the loft. He presents her with a roll of sireh leaf, in which is wrapped the betel-nut ingredients the Dyaks love to chew. […] This nightly courtship is, in fact, the only way a man and woman can become acquainted with each other, for such a thing as privacy during the day is quite unknown in a Dyak house. If the girl be pleased with her lover, he remains with her until close upon daybreak, when he leaves with her some article as a pledge of his honour, such as a bead necklace, or ring, or a headkerchief, or anything else which he may have about him. This act of leaving some gift with the girl is considered as a betrothal between the two parties, and the man who refuses to marry the girl after doing so is considered guilty of breach of promise of marriage, and liable, according to Dyak law, to a fine”.
Komanyi (1973:p81-2): “An Iban girl may marry when she is fifteen or sixteen years old. Now, however, as educational opportunities improve, marriages tend to occur at a slightly later age, such as eighteen to twenty-two. A period of courtship, called ngajap , which is a uniquely Iban custom, precedes the betrothal”.
Padoch:
“The traditional Iban patterns of courtship (ngayap) , which involve nocturnal visiting of women by men, are a topic mentioned frequently by earlier writers (Roth 1896,I:109-11), among whom there is disagreement on the frequency or occurrence of sexual intercourse during the visiting. A more recent account of the practice (Beavitt 1967), and all informants I encountered, concurred that sexual relations take place often, although not always. It is reported that ngayap is now being replaced among someIban groups, particularly those converted to Christianity, by other forms of courtship not involving sexual union (Beavitt 1967:p409-10). However, the traditional form prevailed in all the communities that were studied during the period of field research”.
“... when a girl reaches maturity, and if there is a suitor, her parents will arrange for her to settle down. Normally, an Iban girl marries when she is seventeen years of age. When a girl attains her spinsterhood, her mother teaches her the ways employed to protect herself. She must be taught to behave and speak courteously to boys who court her at night. She is aware that it has been a tradition for a boy to court a girl. However, the question of getting her to offer herself to the boy depends very much on the girl herself, because he cannot force her to give consent unless they love each other through his kindness and winning ways. These are secretly explained to her by her mother. The mother also emphasises the methods in which her daughter can judge whether or not the boy is sincere enough to marry her”

Case studies on HIV-AIDS in Cambodia
During a 6 month period, Egyptian photographer Morsi visited AIDS wards in seven Cambodian hospitals where he met Cambodians, mostly women, who had contracted the virus. He ended up spending months with patients focusing on the human side of their tragedy. Women covered in these story are all dead now, but others have taken their place.
Over half of the world’s 40 million HIV-infected victims are in their adult productive prime of their life. Every year more than 11,000 more people get infected with HIV. While the eastern European countries and Asia are experiencing an alarming increase in the numbers of victims, Africa south of the Sahara has 25 million known cases which is so far the hardest hit area around the world. In Ukraine the number of people diagnosed with HIV has more than doubled since 2000 and today the country has the hardest hit in Europe. In Cambodia also it is estimated that around 1% of the population have HIV- AIDS, although the real numbers might be much higher. The women in Cambodia are facing one of the hardest cultural challenges in Asia; the cultural code “Chbap Srey”* from the mid 19th century, placing them at a lower position than men. This code also contributes to the fact, that Cambodia has the highest rates of domestic violence with thousand of women are being raped, tortured and physically abused by their husband or close male relatives. Women are not bound by law to obey the cultural code, but it also does not protect them from the invasive punishment they encounter from there society.
Srey Pleng
The Srey Sophorn hospital was filled with noise and the smell of disinfectants. Next to an old Toyota Land cruiser, belonging to the French MSF, people were eating lunch with the smell of burnt corpses from the nearby Buddhist crematorium. At the back of the complex I found hospital’s AIDS ward. The patientswith HIV- AIDS seemed pale and exhausted. Every movement required extreme effort and most of the patients just hung out. Most looked like they didn’t notice the world around them, however, every time I entered the room I was met with a stream of careful smiles. They moved Srey Pleng to another room, due to the lack of space. She didn’t like it. It was the male ward. Srey Pleng was 49 years old and was tested positive a year ago she got the infection from her husband few years before He died. Her youngest daughter Luot Sal Lge comes every day to take care of her mother and doesn’t attend any school. When I saw Srey for the first time, she had just been carried into the room, wrapped in her hammock. She looked like a human, whose soul had already found a channel out of her physical body. She had open wounds in her nose and mouth and flies were relentlessly trying to sit on the wounds.
Luot sat behind her mom and watched me. She then tapped her mom on the shoulder and whispered something in her ear. Srey opened her eyes and stared straight into me. Then she smiled with great effort. With this the end of her lips cracked and blood accumulated into a large drop which slowly crept down her cheek. I asked her if she was angry at her husband. My interpreter translated her tears: ‘No, she has forgiven him’.
Rom Chantol
Rom Chantol was 29 years old at the worn out ‘Russian hospital’ in Phnom Penh. The crowded hallways make this place look like city hall. If relatives didn’t come to look after their loved ones, the system would collapse and patients would not receive the care they need.
Rom was strongly affected by the diseases. She looked like a malnourished child in the wide wooden IKEA bed but she smiled at me all the time and made my time with her a pleasure.
Like the rest of the women I met, Rom came from a small village. In her case the Preveng district, not far from Phnom Penh. Her husband, unlike her, didn’t have full blown AIDS, but he has had HIV for the last 4 years. Rom was a housewife and didn’t know she had AIDS until the last stage. Her family took her to a clinic where a blood sample confirmed the doctors’ initial diagnosis. Her husband admitted having unprotected sex with a prostitute and a week later his test also came out positive. Working in the the salt mines in Kampot; South Cambodia her husband was aware about AIDS before the fatal visit to a prostitute, but he was drunk in a small town with no contraceptives at hand and hadn’t seen his wife for six weeks
“But what do I know about time and money?
Rom Chantol dreams her disease would disappear.
“I dream about my little garden before I go to bed – every day”, she said. “I have onions, cabbage and watermelons but I guess the kids in the village have probably eaten the whole lot by now” and then she laughed gently.
She was very angry with her husband in the beginning.
“Buddha shows me the way and that’s how women are raised in Cambodia. I have to forgive my husband. That’s just the way it is”. I asked her what she wanted to tell other women about AIDS, she replied. “Some women are better at taking care of their husband than I was. They must also remember to look after themselves”.
Rom Chantol had only fallen in love with one man in her entire life and married him. This man became the reason for her end. He came and slept on the floor next to her every day and when I asked him what he thought would happen he replied. “I come here to see what will happen to me”
Chan Sokny
The last patient I want to talk about is Chan Sokny. He is 34 years old and caught the disease from his first wife, who died ‘mysteriously’. Then he married his next wife and transmitted the virus to her. After he had been diagnosed HIV positive, Chan visited more than 20 girls over a period of six months.
He always had unprotected sex and if the girl refused he would find someone else. Usually a double payment (less than three American dollars) would turn on any girl.
Chan Sokny was at Calmette, the largest hospital in Cambodia and the central hospital in Phnom Penh. Even with the usual crowds it was a fair place, not as worn out and dirty as the Russian hospitals. The room was filled with families cooking for their relatives. People sat on the beds and the floor and leftover scraps and buckets of spits littered underneath the beds. Chan Sokny wanted me to tell his story so they didn’t make the same mistake. Regarding the multiple visits with the prostitutes he replied. “I was angry with my wife. My first wife. I was angry at women. My interpreter and now close friend added that anger was a very bad thing in Buddhism. “Every day I dream the same dream. I am swimming with my friends in the river. We did that every day. I still do it” he said. In the time I sat with him that day he never spoke a single word to his wife. She looked at him, but he never looked in her in the eyes. Not once.
Are we really that different as individuals or do we act on predetermined patterns of society and what they allow us? Why could these men not protect themselves and their wives? How could the women forgive them? Are our dreams and thoughts similar when we are faced with death? Why do we dream about our childhood and why do dreams turn simple when faced with the inevitable and probably the opposite when our daily lives turn trivial? This are some of the questions I ask myself when I think back about those people.

*Chbap srey stipulates that an ideal woman (srey krab lakkana) is shy and reserved,does not go out alone and moves quietly without making a noise with her silk skirt, but can identify the merits of her husband and provide him with tactful advice. Chbap srey also stipulates ideal female sexuality: that is women should remain chaste until marriage, and, once married, should be faithful to their husbands. Mohammad Khairul Alam
The HIV/AIDS epidemic has developed into a major warning to human development— mainly in the poorest countries of the world. It spreads out depend on several social custom or norm prejudicial practice, such as gender discrimination, sexual violence, early marriage, trafficking, unsafe sex or exploitation of sex workers, transmission of other STDs, intravenous/injection drug uses. Socio-economic position and illiteracy also can makes vulnerable for HIV/AIDS. It is not only a public health issue but also one which is beginning to affect the dynamics of social, cultural, economic and developmental pace of the society we live in.
In the early days of the epidemic, men vastly outnumbered women among people infected with HIV. In 1997, women made up 41% of all people living with HIV. Today, nearly 50 percent of the global population of HIV infected persons are women. AIDS is now a leading cause of death among women aged 20-40 in Europe and North America. Worldwide, half of all new HIV infections are in young people aged 10 to 25, with teenager girls in some places as much as five times more at risk than teenager boys. The epidemic’s ‘feminization’ is most apparent in sub-Saharan Africa, where close to 60% of those infected are women, and 75% of young people infected are girls aged 15-24.
Being a girl or a boy, a woman or man, influences the nature of the risk for contracting HIV/AIDS and how a person experiences it. First, women are more physically susceptible to HIV/AIDS infection than men – male-to-female transmission during sex is about twice as likely to occur as female-to-male transmission. However, relatively simple precautions can be taken to reduce the likelihood of HIV transmission during sexual activity, so this physiologic disadvantage is not a sufficient explanation for the rising inconsistency in the way men and women are infected and affected by HIV/AIDS.
African women are 2.5 times more likely to become HIV-infected than their male counterparts. This vulnerability to the disease is heightened by the high-risk behavior of the men; due primarily to inadequate knowledge about HIV/AIDS, poor resource-base and insufficient access to HIV prevention services, inability to negotiate safer sex and a lack of female-controlled HIV prevention methods including microbicides. Among the women, this situation is most noticeable among women during their childbearing ages of 15-Up.
There are larger numbers of commercial female sex workers (CSWs) is operating all over the country, Bangladesh, significantly increases the risk of bridging the high risk groups and moving infection into the general population. Men, who frequently visit commercial sex areas and have sex with female sex workers and also with their wives, function as a bridging population and significantly aid the confluence of HIV/STDs into the general population. While, the majority of AIDS cases In Bangladesh are the results of needle sharing.
Commercial sex is often considered as the highest risk segment of the population whereby one could get HIV or STD due to the high-risk sex activity itself and the often-additional injurious high-risk behaviors practiced by sex workers e.g. IDU. CSWs are the principal transmitters of HIV in many countries.
In some countries, including Bangladesh, presence of prostitution and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) is systematically denied, being considered a taboo by the majority of the society. There is no official record of the prevalence of residence base & fleeting sex workers in Bangladesh. Lack of any reliable records of the underground sex industry makes the data shaky. Sex workers in Bangladesh are suffering from unavailability of medical services and knowledge about STIs. Social stigmatization stops these resource-deprived women from seeking proper medical care.
In Bangladesh, commercial female sex workers (CSWs) are among the most vulnerable groups. Most of them CSWs are the age of teen. Their profession exposes them to tremendous risk and increases the likelihood of their partners/customers also being infected. The Rainbow Nari O Shishu Kallyan Foundation and ‘Society for Humanitarian Assistance & Rights Protection’ (SHARP) jointly survey focuses on the attitude, behavior and practice of commercial sex workers in Goalondo Brothel, this study did point out that almost 53% of sex workers enter the profession before the age of 20 years, and 30% enter between 20 to 25 years of age.
Bangladesh is still considered as a low HIV/AIDS prevalent country; but everyone buying sex in Bangladesh is having unprotected sex some of the time, and a large majority don’t use condoms regularly. The fourth national surveillance also found a high prevalence of syphilis among female sex workers. The same floating sex workers in central Bangladesh who had a 0.5 percent prevalence of HIV, for example, had a 42.7 percent prevalence of syphilis. Bangladesh mostly needs comprehensive approach to both sex worker’s rights and deal with HIV/AIDS crises. HIV/AIDS prevention programme, to be truly effective, must include parallel economic and educational initiatives for sex workers. If HIV continues to infect sex workers, it will have an all-round effect on our economic development and also on the overall income of the family. Because, sex workers in Bangladesh gets a high number of client in a week.

HIV/AIDS in Cambodia – where to next?
|
With a population of about 14 million, the vast majority of whom live on less than 2 USD a day, Cambodia ranks as one of the poorest countries in Asia. Struggling to rebuild itself following its tumultuous past, a weak public health system means that only one-fifth of the population has an operational health facility in their village. Moreover, the quality of health services is so poor that people are often forced to pay for private care.
HIV/AIDS is the main focus of Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) in Cambodia. Although HIV prevalence, currently 1.9%, is low compared to many African nations, there are still approximately 180,000 people affected by the disease in the country. MSF’s HIV/AIDS program is its largest in Asia and teams are working providing antiretroviral drugs (ARVs) for over 7000 patients.
Vanna is one of these patients. She lives in the rural province of Takeo, in southwest Cambodia. She is 45 years old. She tested positive for HIV four years ago and since then has struggled to cope with the discrimination that she faces within her own community. Vanna's income consists of the small amount of money that she can earn from growing vegetables, but since contracting HIV, she's found it difficult to be able to make any money and provide for her four children.
With a high level of stigma still attached to HIV in Cambodia, some people in Vanna's small village think they will 'catch' the disease from her and so will not buy produce from her market stall. Her son works for a farmer to bring in a small income for the family. Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is working to combat the stigma affecting patients like Vanna by offering treatment in chronic disease clinics. In these clinics, patients are treated alongside diabetes and hypertension patients, where their HIV status does not have to be necessarily apparent.
Vanna has been coming to the MSF chronic diseases clinic in Takeo since she was diagnosed with HIV and has been taking life-extending ARV drugs for the last three years. Previously very frail, the drugs have allowed Vanna to put on 14 kilograms and overall, she feels much better. Although often a tiring process for some patients, she has no problem adhering to the drug regime: "It doesn't bother me that I have to take the drugs every day for the rest of my life," she says. "The ARVs are saving me so I am very happy".
Tuberculosis – the challenge continues
The work of MSF, along with a plethora of NGOs and a strong will from the Cambodian government to improve the situation, means that the fight against HIV/AIDS in Cambodia is in full force. However, the country is now facing another significant health crisis, with tuberculosis (TB) rapidly emerging to be a major concern. Tuberculosis is one of the most common co-infections of HIV/AIDS and a leading cause of death in patients. And it is not just HIV/AIDS patients that are affected.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) reported in 2006 that Cambodia has the 22nd highest TB burden worldwide. Approximately two-thirds of all Cambodians carry the tuberculosis bacterium, and around 13,000 die annually from the disease.
With statistics like this, in a context where the government has been slow to react and also does not have the resources to provide an adequate solution right now, the need for better treatment and diagnosis is acute. TB is a highly infectious disease, and patients have to undergo treatment, with drugs developed fifty years ago, for periods of 6-8 months to which they must strictly adhere.
The problem does not stop there. Yet another obstacle facing Cambodia is the emergence of multi drug resistant TB (MDR-TB). "TB is the main challenge in Cambodia", says Laurent Ferradini, MSF's medical coordinator. "There are problems with drugs in terms of supply and cost and we are very concerned about the emergence of MDR-TB. This has the potential to be a huge issue in the near future. The situation is bad and largely uncontrolled." The treatment for the multi-drug resistant form of the disease is extremely costly, and patients must follow a strict regime for two years and suffer side effects including severe nausea. What's more, there is no guarantee that MDR-TB can be cured.
At the HIV/AIDS inpatient ward in Kompong Cham to which MSF provides support, a staggering 75% of patients are affected by TB. Kiri (pictured) is HIV positive and also has TB. She has no family to take care of her. There are many patients just like Kiri in Cambodia without family, and without financial means to seek treatment. Fortunately, Kiri was able to make it to the MSF clinic to receive the essential drugs she needs.
MSF is currently scaling up its focus on TB in Cambodia by renovating existing facilities and building new wards in order to be able to provide care for the growing number of TB patients. It is hoped that the fight against HIV/AIDS will be equalled with a strong effort against TB, both from the national program and international actors, to combat the rapid emergence of this much-neglected disease.
There are still between 25,000 and 30,000 people in urgent need of ARV treatment in Cambodia. Currently, MSF teams are working to treat HIV/AIDS patients in five locations: Takeo, Siem Reap, Oddar Meanchay, Phnom Penh and Kompong Cham. In two of these sites, Takeo and Siem Reap, teams are also treating other chronic diseases such as diabetes and hypertension.
MSF has been working in Cambodia since 1989.
The patients' names in this article have been changed.

The brutal truth of Aids in Cambodia
 Drugs have saved Sray Neing from death |
Patrick Nicholson, a press officer with the aid agency Cafod, has travelled to Cambodia to investigate what that means for a poor country struggling to keep the HIV epidemic in check.
The Venerable Hoeun Somnieg rises before dawn to meditate at his pagoda, situated near Cambodia's mythic Angkor Wat Temples.
Twenty of his fellow monks join him, chanting in rhythm, as they bow their heads to the Lord Buddha.
The saffron robes, the swirls of incense, and the golden Buddha statue - an ascetic life of contemplation and study.
But Venerable Somnieg's day will be acutely different from his predecessors - he is on Cambodia's frontline in the fight against HIV and Aids. 
The Venerable Hoeun Somnieg
Over the last decade, the monks in Siem Reap were being asked to give blessings at more and more funerals of poor villagers who had died of Aids.
Ostracised families
Cambodia's HIV infections have rocketed to 3%, the highest in South East Asia.
Whole families were ostracised from village life, as their neighbours grew scared of catching a disease they did not understand.
"The future was desperate. I had to act to stop the suffering," said Venerable Somnieg.
Seven months ago, he started to work on providing prevention and care with the support of British aid agency Cafod providing counselling, education and care.
Cambodia is one of the world's poorest countries, with a third of the population living on less than a dollar a day.
The country's infrastructure is still recovering from two decades of civil war and the aftermath of the tyranny of the Khymer Rouge.
The country does not have hospitals to cope with the HIV epidemic. From birth to death, less than 1% of the population are ever treated by a government doctor.
Spreading the message
Perched on the back of a moped, as Buddhist teaching prevents monks from driving, Venerable Somnieg travels to a small hamlet to speak with a group of people with Aids. 
Infection rates are very high
Once muscular wiry farmers, their bodies are now emaciated with illness, their faces have become drawn, and their skin scaly and lifeless.
"Buddha taught that good health is an important part of spiritual health," said Venerable Somnieg.
He teaches the people to eat properly, stay clean, and exercise.
He listens to their problems, answers their questions about Aids, and gives psychological counselling on how to come to terms with their ill health.
The monks work with Aids patients has broken down the stigma - now the whole villages supports those who are ill.
The meeting ends with meditation and a blessing of holy water - a symbol of life for Buddhists.
Sex bars
Fast forward to the plethora of sex bars in the capital Phnom Penh. Loud karaoke blares, while beer girls offer customers a choice of drinks and more.
Brothels are common place - ranging from the high priced joints catering to foreigners to small huts on the banks of the Mekong where you can pay the equivalent of a couple of pence.
Despite South-East Asia's reputation for sex tourism, the overwhelming majority of prostitutes in Cambodia cater to other Cambodians.
The girls come from poor families in the countryside.
They can earn much more here than at home. It is a difficult choice. For some there is no choice.
Kea is a 20-year-old prostitute working in Phnom Penh. Her previous boyfriend sold her to the brothel.
Kea, a 20-year-old prostitute
He tricked her into signing a contract with the brothel owners that meant she has to work there to pay off his $100 debt to them.
Gangs of men regularly rape her.
One man gives her extra to come to the fields to use her - an irresistible $5.
When she arrives, there are five or six men waiting, who rape her in turn.
Condoms rare
The government has a well-publicised 100% condom use in brothels campaign. But Tea said that only about one in ten men want to use condoms.
She said: "If I refuse to sleep with them without a condom then they just rape me anyway so what can I do." 
Monks spread the prevention message
Her eyes are expressionless. They are dead - the eyes of someone who has born the unbearable.
The biggest increase in new infections is now from husband to wife, and from new mother to her baby.
One of the key responses by the government and aid workers is education.
Local community leaders in Sang Ang province go into the villages with simple flip charts showing how HIV is transmitted and how to avoid becoming infected.
Too late
For Lon Hieng and her family it has come too late.
She lives with her parents in their typical farmhouse on stilts. Her husband was a taxi driver in Phnom Penh, where he would visit brothels, and return to her at the weekend.
He died five years ago of Aids related infections.
"I was very angry with my husband when I found out he tested positive for HIV," she said.
"Men in Cambodia need to stay faithful to their wives."
She is now infected with the virus.
She found out her second child was HIV positive a year ago. She took the daughter to the hospital in the capital to get the anti-retro viral drugs that will block the HIV virus, but they did not have any left. The girl has just died.
Despite the drugs necessary to stop mother-to-child infections costing less than 50 pence, there are not enough available.
Many orphans
Health workers in Cambodia are predicting a tidal wave of 200,000 children orphaned by Aids within five years. At least 15,000 will be HIV positive.
A few will be taken in by one of the four orphanages run by John Tucker in Phnom Penh.
He is a brash big-hearted American from Ohio, a former businessman who has given it all up and come with his wife to help the children of Cambodia.
But he can only help a fraction. He has room for 200 children with HIV, and he said it is the only project in the country providing anti-retroviral drugs to such children.
Many of the children who come to the orphanage are found abandoned on the streets, close to death.
Sray Neing, aged three, weighed only six pounds when they took her in. The photo they have of her then shows little more than a tiny skeleton.
Six months after receiving anti-retroviral drug therapy, she is a plump healthy looking 22 pounds.
"The drugs work. They can extend somebody's life by 15 to 20 years. By then we might have a cure, " said Tucker.
No access to drugs
Despite Cambodia being a World Health Organisation target country for access to Aids drugs, only 3000 people receive them out of 170,000 infected with HIV.
A course of drugs for one of the children costs about $500 per year, including secondary care. Tucker said.
"It is a question of money, it is a question of political will by the international community."
The government of Cambodia has been singled out for its good work on HIV/AIDS, but ministers say it still does not have the money to properly tackle the epidemic.
The stark alternative to providing the necessary funds is highlighted by one of the hospices in Phnom Penh.
It takes people off the streets, and provides beds and around the clock healthcare for them in the last days of their illness.
The need is greater than the number of beds.
It is a bleak indictment of the international response to the HIV epidemic that only the lucky few in Phnom Penh will have a bed to die in with dignity.

India's HIV Victims Find Solace In Marriage
Taking medicines on time is a big part of a successful marriage for Ravi and Nima, an HIV-positive couple who met as a direct result of the enduring stigma attached to AIDS in India.
They met through a non-profit marriage bureau in India's western state of Gujarat that caters exclusively to HIV-infected people, setting up introductions and helping with legal issues for couples who choose to marry.
The UNAIDS agency says some 2.5 million Indians are living with HIV, many of them ostracised by their communities.
"My father disowned me when I told him about my disease. I was lonely and needed a companion to live and enjoy the last few years of my life," said 38-year-old Ravi, a shopkeeper who contracted the infection from a sex worker.
His wife Nima tested HIV positive in 2004 when she went for a medical check-up to confirm a pregnancy. She contracted the virus from her first husband who died in 2006.
"I felt cheated and wanted to commit suicide after my husband died but I decided to marry again and work for the widows of HIV patients," Nima said.
The Gujarat Marriage Bureau for People Living with AIDS was the first of its kind when it set up in 2005, but there are now eight similar agencies across India, most of them established by people living with HIV.
In the past four years, the Gujarat agency has arranged marriages for around 300 people.

Cambodia's Condom Campaign at Risk, Faces Fresh HIV Epidemic
Threats to a successful Cambodian condom campaign has raised fears the country could experience a second epidemic of the disease, health officials said Wednesday.
Tia Phalla, of Cambodia's National AIDS Authority, said the country's so-called 100 percent condom use programme, which provides sex education and distributes condoms to sex workers, "is facing difficulties" because of a new anti-sex trafficking law and lack of financial support.
Police began a crackdown on brothels after the new law was passed in February, which has reportedly forced prostitutes to leave condoms behind as they move from place to place.
"Enforcement of the anti-trafficking law harms the 100 percent condom use in brothels," Tia Phalla told a three-day national AIDS conference in Phnom Penh.
The percentage of sex workers who consistently used condoms with clients had already begun to drop to 94 percent in 2007 from 96 percent in 2003, according to AIDS authority data.
Additionally, only six of the country's 24 provinces and cities currently have funds to carry out the programme, Tia Phalla said.
"The main risk of a second wave of HIV infections occuring in Cambodia is from female sex workers, their clients and sweethearts," said a statement by the AIDS authority.
Before the 100 percent condom use programme began, Cambodia's overall HIV rate was the worst in the region, peaking at 3.7 percent of the population in 1997. Rates among prostitutes were estimated at 40 percent.
The aggressive condom and sex education campaign is believed to have helped drop Cambodia's overall HIV prevalence to 0.9 percent.

It is Fujikawa’s first time to play the leading lady in a movie and it also marks her return to the entertainment world after a six-year absence. The movie, set in 18th century Japan, centers on the life and murder of the bored wife of a wealthy Osaka oil merchant.
When Fujikawa lowered her kimono for the press, those in attendance voiced their approval with her 81-58-84 figure. She roused the crowd when she said: “I’m not wearing anything under this. I came without any underwear.”
She also commented on the filming of the nude scenes in the movie, saying: “Sometimes the director would bark at me, and I would cry. But I realized I’m a bit masochistic, so I’ve grown as a result of this movie.”
