MEXICO CITY (AFP) — Mexicans who migrate annually to the United States change their sex habits significantly on arrival there, and increase their risk of catching HIV/AIDS, according to a Mexican/Califorian study.

Hundreds of thousands of Mexicans migrate to the United States each year.

Male Mexican migrants increase high-risk sexual practices including relations with sex workers or other men, under the effects of drugs and alcohol, or in exchange for money, food or lodging, according to the study of 458 men aged 18 to 69 who arrived in the United States in the past five years.

Those who had relations with sex workers increased from 18.1 percent to 29.4 percent and those who had sexual relations under the effect of alcohol rose from 24.6 percent to 41.3 percent, according to the study by the Pilot Program of California-Mexico Epidemiology Vigilance.

1. "Cheap Mexican laborers corrupted by lax morals in USA."

Revised headline.

[Skittles]

2. funny bemildred, I was thinking the same thing

the headline in itself seems to draw the conclusion that, well, Mexicans are fast and loose :thumbsdown:

[AlphaCentauri]

3. if any morals exist

don't miss the "Mexican/Califorian" study

[petronius]

4. This shouldn't really be a surprise, should it?

A young male population in often-temporary living situations away from family and social networks - an uptick in risky behavior seems inevitable...

[AlphaCentauri]

5. else young males surrounded by drug and alcohol female addicts

who would prostitute them selfs

[Tempest]

6. Who is this group that conducted the study?

The only information I can find references this study, but nothing else. They don't have a web site and the only two Google hits are about this study.

7. It just looks like another anti Mexican propaganda spot

one of those republican spots that suggest to hate the Mexicans and love Ben Laden

8. When I was in the Navy, my promiscuity increased every time I hit port.

I didn't realize I was corrupting the morality of all those pimps and whores.

9. They are just doing the jobs Americans won't do

[truthisfreedom]

10. "relations with sex workers increased from 18.1 percent to 29.4 percent" woah...

18.1% had relations with sex workers before they got here? What's up with that?

[closeupready]

12. What do you mean?

Are you saying you think that's a high percentage? Seems to me that prostitution is more accepted in Latin America.
