 AB    One sample of young gay men (n = 219) and 3 samples of older gay men (n
       = 219, n = 207, and n = 88) recalled a sexual encounter in which they
       had engaged in unprotected anal intercourse. Throughout the evening of
       the encounter, desire specifically for unprotected intercourse had
       generally been less common the more distant the relationship with the
       partner. Young men having sex with an anonymous partner were an
       exception to this pattern, however: they had desired unprotected
       intercourse almost as commonly as had young men having sex with a lover.
       The extent to which unprotected intercourse is premeditated in young men
       with an anonymous partner may make it particularly hard to modify their
       behaviour. This group had also been in an especially negative mood state
       at the start of the evening, suggesting the importance of trying to
       inculcate non-destructive ways of dealing with negative mood states.
