Do you almost always experience pain when bottoming?

Pain when bottoming (i.e., receptive anal intercourse; when your partner inserts their penis or an object into your anus) is common, with approximately 12.5% to 18% of gay, bi, and queer men complaining of this difficulty. Unfortunately, little is known about the symptoms and causes of pain when bottoming as well as the impact this difficulty has on the lives of gay, bi, and queer men. Gaining a better understanding of the experiences of gay, bi, and queer with pain when bottoming is important for the development of effective medical and psychosocial treatments for this population.We are looking for:200 gay, bi, or queer men who experience pain almost always when bottoming Must have had any type of sexual activity with another male during the past 6 months Must be over 18 years old Must be able to speak and read in English Must hold a valid Canadian bank accountWhat do you have to do?Complete an anonymous and confidential 1-hour online questionnaire packageWhat’s in it for you?You will receive $10 for your full participation You will help gay, bi, and queer men who experience pain when bottomingHow to participate:To participate, visit our Facebook page (http://ift.tt/2vGC7Vh) or website (http://ift.tt/2wThkMM)If you prefer to complete a paper-based version of the questionnaire package in-person at the HIV Prevention Lab at Ryerson University, please contact the principal investigator by email at gbqsexpainstudy@psych.ryerson.ca or by telephone at 416-979-5000, ext 1-2179.
