This book examines sexual fantasies and their influence on everyday
life through the stories of twenty-two men who introduce themselves
as bugchasers, i.e. gay men who eroticize HIV. The author defines
bugchasing, charts its history and contexts, and considers how it
has changed in the age of internet and PrEP. Through the
participants, their experiences and contexts, this text also
theorizes about sexual fantasies, seeking to understand how people
define sexual fantasies and use the internet as a space to navigate
their desires, meet others, and find support. Chapters also
consider the practical implications of fantasy, most notably, how
fantasies influence men's decisions around HIV prevention and care.
This book speaks to renewed interest in both the AIDS crisis and
the sociology of everyday life to illustrate how fantasies such as
bugchasing appear, evolve, and adapt. This book will be of interest
to scholars focused on queer studies, sexuality studies, gender
studies, and healthcare.
