I suspect that condom use is in itself habitual and people are either users or not. If that is the case if their is an alternative habit, consuming antiretrovirals, it maybe some people would prefer it (choice is good). and maybe pill poppers maybe better atthat sort of regular habitual use than condom use. And perhaps they will be better at not forgetting than the regular condom users, who probably still forget (?) from time to time. But before you shout and lose your temper, (too late) I accept that my habituals are not the real problem demographic. But to increase the number and variety of people doing the right thing will increase the peer pressure against those doing the wrong thing.
