Interview with Tonya, 16 - 17, Caribbean, working class. Women, Risk and AIDS Project, Manchester, 1989. Anonymised version including fieldnotes (Ref: AMB18)

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 Tonya, who is at college and works as a part-time hairdresser. She lives with her parents, who are very strict, and lots of siblings (mainly brothers). She thinks her parents are stricter than her those of her ('half cast') friends, due to familial and cultural differences. She brings up AIDS without being prompted, in the context of risk and safety - she is very frightened of it after hearing about it at school and on TV. Tonya does not want a sexual relationship at the moment, but had had intercourse with her first boyfriend after five months of seeing each other - he has now moved away, so they are no longer together. They did not use contraception throughout their sexual relationship, as he did not want to wear one. She would go on the pill in the future, as she thinks most men do not like using condoms, but is aware that this puts her at risk of AIDS transmission and that the pill carries its own health risks. Tonya feels that contraception use is the responsibility of the female within heterosexual sexual relationships. Her formal sex education at school, in Biology, covered topics such as periods, condoms, contraceptives and sexually transmitted diseases. She understands safe-sex (in terms of AIDS) as using a condom, but did not seem to be aware of oral sex, especially as a form of safe-sex - she thinks oral sex would be disgusting.

本访谈是《女性、风险与艾滋病项目》（Women, Risk and Aids Project，1989-1990）档案的一部分，该档案为《数据复活项目》（Reanimating Data Project，2018-2020）的成果之一。

Tonya的匿名访谈记录显示，她是一名大学生，同时兼职理发师。她与父母及众多兄弟姐妹（以兄弟为主）共同生活，父母管教极为严格。她认为，由于家庭与文化差异，自己父母的管教比“混血”朋友的父母更为严苛。在未受引导的情况下，她主动围绕风险与安全话题提及艾滋病——在学校及电视上听闻相关信息后，她对此感到极度恐惧。

目前Tonya并无恋爱意愿，但曾与首任男友交往五个月后发生性关系，如今男友已搬离，两人关系终止。在整个交往期间，双方未采取避孕措施，原因是男友不愿使用避孕套。她计划未来服用避孕药，因为她认为多数男性排斥使用避孕套，但也清楚此举会增加艾滋病传播风险，且避孕药本身存在健康隐患。她认为，在异性性关系中，避孕责任应由女性承担。

学校生物课的正式性教育涵盖了月经、避孕套、避孕药及性传播疾病等内容。她将安全性行为（safe-sex）理解为使用避孕套，但对於口交（oral sex）——尤其是将其视为安全性行为的一种形式——似乎缺乏认知，甚至认为口交令人反感。
