Abstract

Behavioral surveillance was undertaken among 1,150 male-to-female transgenders (waria) in Java, Indonesia, 2007; samples were collected for HIV and STI testing (n = 748). Almost all waria had ever sold sex (median duration 10 years). Prevalence of HIV was 24.4%, syphilis 26.8% and rectal gonorrhea and/or chlamydia 47.0%. Syphilis and rectal STIs were associated with HIV infection. Consistent condom use during receptive anal sex with clients was reported by 35.9% waria and was higher among those who visited an STI clinic and who knew their HIV status. Efforts should continue to strengthen behavior change and STI care in future HIV prevention programs.

Most waria have breast implants, use hormones such as oral contraception and some might have undergone surgery.

Waria often live in small groups, coordinated by a ring leader or ‘mami’. A mami usually is a senior waria who provides support for the 5–15 waria in her group, including violence protection and promotion of condom use, VCT and regular routine STI check-ups.
