Interview with Gina, 20-21, British, working class, no religion. Women Risk and AIDS Project, London, 1990. Original version including field notes. (Ref: LJH39)

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 an interview with Gina, who would like to be a journalist. Gina is engaged to her partner of three years or so. She had quite a difficult childhood, rife with domestic violence, sexual assault and her father's infidelity, so has found it difficult to trust anyone - sex had been framed as something 'dirty', and she had been in trouble with the police and with her school a lot as a teenager. Gina and her mother had both had suicide attempts, and Gina struggled with an eating disorder. Sex education at her school was very mechanical and fear-mongering, but her mother had always been open about sex education, and Gina had sexually experimented from a young age. Gina holds a lot of strong feminist values, but doesn't want to call herself a feminist - they get bad press. She is in a very loving, supportive relationship at the moment, and is looking forward to seeing how it progresses in the future.

本访谈隶属于女性、风险与艾滋病项目（Women, Risk and Aids Project，1989-1990年）的归档库，该归档库是数据活化项目（Reanimating Data Project，2018-2020年）的组成部分。本次转录内容为与吉娜的原始访谈记录，吉娜的职业志向为记者。吉娜与交往三年左右的伴侣已订婚。吉娜的童年经历颇为坎坷，充斥着家庭暴力、性侵犯以及父亲的不忠行为，因此她始终难以信任他人——她曾将性认知为“肮脏之物”，青少年时期还多次与警方及校方产生冲突。吉娜与母亲均曾有过自杀未遂经历，吉娜本人还饱受进食障碍的折磨。她就读学校的性教育课程极为刻板且充满恐吓式说教，但母亲始终对性教育持开放态度，因此吉娜从幼年起便有过性探索行为。吉娜秉持诸多鲜明的女权主义理念，但不愿自称女权主义者——只因女权群体常遭舆论负面评价。她目前正处于一段充满爱意与支持的亲密关系中，并期待着这段关系未来的发展走向。
