Second interview with Cathy, 16-17, White British, middle class, no religion. Women, Risk & AIDS Project, London, 1990. Original version. (Ref: LSFS11)

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).Original transcript of a follow up interview with Cathy. Since her original interview, she has broken up with her partner and had a lot of family difficulties to contend with whilst studying for her A-Level exams. Cathy talks at length about her turbulent break up - it was quite a dramatic break up, involving lots of alcohol, arguments and on again, off again dynamics, as well as subsequent stints in various hospitals after being sectioned. She discusses the different types of men she has been dating since the break up and the different, largely class-based, values and aspirations that they have had. Some of these have been sexual relationships, with unprotected sex and high levels of risk. Cathy has had a lot of pressure on her from her father to do exceedingly well in her exams, but is feeling less worried about her grades and is optimistic about her future.

本次访谈隶属于1989至1990年间开展的「女性、风险与艾滋病项目（Women, Risk and Aids Project）」档案库，该档案库同时也是2018至2020年「数据复苏项目（Reanimating Data Project）」的组成部分。本文件为与凯西（Cathy）的后续访谈原始转录稿。在首次访谈之后，凯西与伴侣分手，并在备战高级程度考试（A-Level）期间遭遇了诸多家庭变故。凯西详细讲述了这段波折重重的分手经历：此次分手极具戏剧性，涉及大量饮酒、争吵与分分合合的拉锯状态，她还因被强制收治入院而先后多次短期入住多家医院。她还谈及分手后交往的各类男性，以及彼此之间存在的、以阶层差异为主导的迥异价值观与人生追求。其中部分交往涉及无保护性性行为，风险等级极高。凯西的父亲一直给她施加极大压力，要求她在考试中取得优异成绩，但她如今已不再过度担忧考试成绩，并对未来抱有乐观态度。
