title: Interview with Amanda, 18, White British, middle class, Roman Catholic. Women, Risk and AIDS Project, Manchester, 1989. Anonymised version including fieldnotes (Ref: MAG19)

description: This interview is part of the Women, Risk and Aids Project (1989-90) archive which was created as part of the Reanimating Data Project (2018-20).<br>Anonymised transcript of an interview with Amanda, eighteen, who is at college and works in a bar. She enjoys horse riding and looking after animals, and having a good social life with her friends (which she feels has negatively impacted her academic work). She now has a car, which has had a positive impact on her sense of independence. Amanda comes from a middle-class background, but has lots of friends from working-class backgrounds in poorer areas of Manchester as well as more 'pretentious' ones from college. Her boyfriend of four weeks lives in Hulme with his flatmate, and regularly engages in alcohol and drug use. She has had quite a lot of sexual partners, more than her girlfriends, but doesn't agree with one-night stands and these sexual experiences have typically involved those that she has been friends with for a while first. Amanda expresses her own feminist thinking around equality and sexual reputation and pleasure, though there is sometimes conflict between her way of thinking and expressing her sexual identity and wider social norms and gendered expectations among her peers that leads her to question this, as well as her need for validation. She first had sex when she was fifteen and a half, and drunk. It was a while after this before she had had sex while sober, and she feels her views on sex have changed since her first time. She has found it difficult to say 'no' within heterosexual sexual experiences, and does not want to be known as a 'prick tease'. Amanda doesn't remember much of her Sex Education at school, but learnt about AIDS through programmes on TV and pamphlets that came through the door. She was using condoms, but now relies on the pill as her main method of birth control and protection and would continue to use condoms with a new sexual partner. Her friend was using the rhythm method to track her 'safe days', but this failed and resulted in pregnancy and a miscarriage, so Amanda is much more conscious and careful now. Amanda had learnt about contraception at school, namely the cap and the coil. However, she feels using the cap would ruin the 'heat of the moment' within sexual encounters. In terms of AIDS protection, she has considered using condoms or the withdrawal method. She would feel ok to ask a sexual partner to use a condom to avoid pregnancy, but would not feel as comfortable to ask them in the contect of AIDS protection, as there is stigma around AIDS and promiscuity. She thought that those at highest risk of AIDS would be homosexuals and needle-users, but now recognises that this risk is not confined to specific groups within society.

title: Follow up interview with Amanda, 18 - 19, White British, middle class, Roman Catholic. Women, Risk and AIDS Project, Manchester, 1990. Original version (Ref: MAG192)

description: This interview is part of the Women, Risk and Aids Project (1989-90) archive which was created as part of the Reanimating Data Project (2018-20).<br>Original transcript of a follow up interview with Amanda, who left college prematurely due to poor attendance and relationship troubles at the time. She has had some administrative-type jobs and is planning on spending the summer working in Ibiza. Amanda feels her attitude to risk, especially in terms of safe sex, has changed since her original interview. She is now more aware of the dangers of AIDS and they feel more realistic to her, since discussing it with other people and discovering more about her previous partner's sexual history and needle use. She is still taking the pill as her main form of contraception, but thinks she would use condoms in future sexual relationships, even though she doesn't enjoy using them. In terms of her own sexual pleasure, she has become more aware of it through experimenting and engaging in oral sexual practices with partners, and feels more confident taking on a more dominant role.

title: Interview with Jessica, 18 - 19, White British, working class. Women, Risk and AIDS Project, Manchester, 1989. Anonymised version including fieldnotes (Ref: NMC03)

description: This interview is part of the Women, Risk and Aids Project (1989-90) archive which was created as part of the Reanimating Data Project (2018-20).<br>Anonymised transcript of an interview with Jessica, who is at college and working towards a career in the police force. She does not see this as a subversion of traditional gender roles, but would have done twenty years earlier. She received no formal Sex Education at her comprehensive, mixed-sex secondary school, and has relied on 'age-appropriate', largely biological information from her parents. She did not received any formal education on AIDS, and what she does know has been learnt from media campaigns and adverts, which she feels were informative. She originally thought AIDS was reserved for gay men, but has had her homophobia and stigma challenged through PSCE in college. She thinks those at highest risk of AIDS are those who are promiscuous and engage in one-night stands and casual sexual encounters. Jessica had not realised that condoms were an effective method of promoting and practicing safe-sex that protects from transmitting AIDS and other sexually transmitted infections or diseases. Her parents had told her about the pill as a form of contraception. Jessica would like to wait until she is married or in love before having sex, and does not feel she is ready yet, but does acknowledge her right to pleasure within a (hetero)- sexual relationship. She likes the idea of security that might come with marriage. She is in a fairly serious heterosexual relationship at the moment with a 22 year old from Scotland, who has not pressured her into having sex. She does not feel there is any pressure from her peers either, as many of them are still virgins, too, but doesn't think she would succumb to pressure either.

title: Interview with Lori, 16 - 17, White British, working class, Roman Catholic. Women, Risk and AIDS Project, Manchester, 1989. Original version including fieldnotes (Ref: NMC07)

description: This interview is part of the Women, Risk and Aids Project (1989-90) archive which was created as part of the Reanimating Data Project (2018-20).<br>Original transcript of an interview with Lori, who is doing a Pre-health course for nursing, but is not enjoying it too much and would like to be a nanny instead. The Sex Education she received at school was largely biological, where students where split into single-sex groups and read to from a text book, with opportunity for group discussion afterwards. She feels the Sex Education she had was adequate, especially what she had learned through her child-care course with regard to pregnancy. However, there was little on homosexuality, female masturbation and pleasure or relationships (it was typically scientific). Teachers largely relied on leaflets for students to read through. Lori feels AIDS was a taboo, stigmatised topic until she had learnt more about it, but considers those at higher risk to be needle-users and sex workers. She is currently in a relationship and had her first sex with this partner, but had had some sexual experience from previous romantic relationships. Her own sexual pleasure is important to her. She had associated virginity with notions of cleanliness, and was glad that her current partner was also sexually inexperienced, as this meant he was low risk in terms of AIDS or STIs. There was some pressure from peers to lose her virginity. Her and her current partner have discussed marriage, which she is hopeful for in the future. They have not been using contraception, but rather are relying on the 'pull-out' method. Lori has thought about using the pill, but is worried about her mother finding out and about going to the clinic. She feels she is well-informed enough around AIDS to protect herself from any risks.
