Principles
.
Queer Ontario’s values include the recognition and affirmation of gender and sexual diversity. We support everyone’s freedom to have feelings, including love for, desire for and fantasy about anyone or anything. We support sexual activity where everyone involved gives informed consent. We hope for a sex-positive society in which anyone can enjoy sexual pleasures and thrills, including masturbation, pornography, casual sex, kink, and other partner-sex, without worry or endangerment.

Hello everyone,

___
The Trans Men Who Have Sex With Men (TMSM) Sexual Health Study is a community-based research project about our sexual health.
.
We want to improve the sexual health of trans guys by learning about how we make decisions about sex and safety when we have sex with guys.
.
If you have sex with men and you’re a trans man, FTM, transmasculine person, or transitioned man, are 18 years of age or older, and live in Ontario, we want to hear from you! We’re looking to represent the broad diversity of the trans guy community in this research, and are particularly interested in hearing from guys of colour, Aboriginal/two-spirit trans guys, guys living with disabilities (including psychiatric survivors/consumers), guys of different ages, transition statuses, gender presentations, and geographic regions.
.
You can participate
in person in the GTA (interviews held at the OHTN offices located at 1300 Yonge Street), or
by phone/Skype elsewhere in Ontario.
.
The interview takes about 1-1.5 hours, and you will receive a $40 honorarium. Childcare is available upon request. Participation is entirely confidential.
.
