Purpose The purpose of this paper is to clarify the origins, use and meaning of the term chemsex. Design/methodology/approach The approach used here is one born of personal experiences and reflection. Findings The term chemsex has a definition and a purpose that promotes culturally competent care for a marginalized group of vulnerable people. Research limitations/ implications - This is a qualitative, personal, point- of- view piece which may be of value in broadening understandings and responses amongst public health and academic activities. Practical implications - The findings can be used to develop a sense of community and support amongst men who have sex with men in a chemsex setting, and to provide some background and context for professionals working in this field. Originality/ value - This paper is amongst the first, if not the first, of its nature to be published in an academic journal.
