SAUVAGNAT FRANÇOIS, BONNY PIERRE A PARTICULAR CASE OF A « DARE » IN ADOLESCENCE : SOME ASPECTS OF RISK-TAKING INVOLVING HIV IN GAY ADOLESCENTS AND YOUNG ADULTS.

Interviews, first semi-directive, afterwards freeform, with subjects using gay dating sites have allowed us to pinpoint a certain number of particularities of types of unconscious dares, involving both their own fantasy life and their family history, concomitant with risk-taking that led to infection with the AIDS virus. These interviews also allowed some subjects who participated in them a better perception of their vital choices, and an opportunity to put into perspective the conclusions that partly determined their risk-taking.
