Interview with Nicole, 18-19, unknown ethnicity, middle class, no religion. Women, Risk and AIDS Project, London, 1989. Original version including field notes. (Ref: LJH20)

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 Nicole, who would like to go to medical school and is starting university in the coming autumn. Sex education at her single-sex secondary school was largely scientific, though Nicole sourced her own information from books. She is in a sexual relationship at the moment and has been using condoms, as she has been worried about pregnancy. Her first sex was out of curiosity and to gain a new experience. Nicole would like a career, marriage and children in the future - this is what her mum has, so it feels like a realistic lifestyle for her to achieve.
