Interview with Gina, 20-21, British, working class, no religion. Women Risk and AIDS Project, London, 1990. Anonymised 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).<br>Anonymised 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.

本次访谈属于1989至1990年开展的女性、风险与艾滋病项目（Women, Risk and Aids Project）档案资料，该档案依托2018至2020年的数据活化项目（Reanimating Data Project）创建。本资料为与吉娜的匿名访谈实录。吉娜的职业理想是成为一名记者，与交往三年左右的伴侣已订婚。吉娜的童年颇为坎坷，充斥着家庭暴力、性侵犯以及父亲的出轨行为，因此她难以信任他人——曾将性视作‘肮脏之事’，青少年时期还多次与警方及学校发生冲突。吉娜与母亲均曾有过自杀未遂经历，本人还饱受进食障碍的困扰。她在校接受的性教育刻板僵化且充满恐吓色彩，但母亲始终对性教育持坦诚态度，吉娜从年幼时便有过性探索行为。吉娜秉持诸多坚定的女权主义价值观，但不愿自称女权主义者——该群体常遭遇负面舆论。目前她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。
