 Outside of sex work, there exists young women and men that also cannot abstain due to social or financial pressure from older parties that act as "sugar mommies" and "sugar daddies".Young men and women engage in sexual relationships in order to obtain items, treats or opportunities that they would not be able to otherwise receive.Abstinence-only sex education in Uganda disregards the existence of these relationships and does not provide any program or policy to protect against HIV/AIDS infection.
