Abstract

This is one of the few papers that provides information on the practice of fish-for-sex (FFS). Although FFS has been observed in several countries across the world, reports are mainly from African inland fisheries. This, according to the authors, is possibly because FFS is dealt with mainly in the context of HIV/ AIDS, and Southern and Eastern Africa report the highest prevalence of the AIDS pandemic.
