Interview with Amy, 16-17, British, working class, Roman Catholic. Women, Risk and AIDS Project, London, 1989. Anonymised version including field notes. (Ref: LSFS4)

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 Amy, a second generation migrant who is training as a painter and decorator. Her parents haven't been very supportive of this, and think she should have a more 'feminine' or domesticated job role. They are quite protective of Amy, especially when compared to her older brother who seems to have a lot more freedom, and hold traditional values. Amy didn't get much sex education at school due to wider parental protests, but is adamant on condom use and fairly clued up around AIDS. She thinks she would like marriage and parenthood in the future, but changes her mind a lot at the moment.
