Stigmatization of Condom Use amongst Educated Medical Staff

By Tarbi Prinsloo

The study looks at the stigmatization of condom use, investigating the current perceptions, attitudes and beliefs about condom use in relation to the HIV and AIDS epidemic. The study also investigates the impact of society's perceptions on condom use and explores why these differing perceptions about condoms exist; looking at the impact and dynamics of stigmatization. It elaborates on what the perceptions of condom use ought to be; pertaining to the sacred space of sexuality, evaluating human sexuality and the human body, as well as at marriage and sexuality. Furthermore, the study looks at the possible ways to respond to stigmatization, considering practical conclusions within a pastoral counselling view that encourage de-stigmatization. Finally, the study explores a paradigm shift of letting the theology of the resurrection state a theological critique on stigmatization.
