Perceptions of intersectional stigma among diverse women living with HIV in the United States.
This study conducted 76 interviews with diverse women with HIV from varied socioeconomic backgrounds in Birmingham AL, Jackson MI, Atlanta GA, and San Francisco CA, who were enrolled in the Women's Interagency HIV Study (WIHS). The purpose was to examine perceptions of intersectional stigma among women living with HIV. The women interviewed shared their perceptions of the various forms of stigma and discrimination they had experienced, most commonly related to gender, race, income level, as well as their incarceration histories and weight. The study’s findings highlight the complexity of the social processes of marginalization, and the need for public health strategies to promote wellbeing among women living with HIV and to reduce social structural and health disparities.
