Interview with Anita, 16-17, South Asian, working class, Muslim. Women, Risk and AIDS Project, London, 1989. Original version including field notes. (Ref: LSFS21)

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 Anita. She is from a Muslim family, and though her parents are fairly liberal and westernised, they've been much stricter with her than with her older sister. Anita is allowed to date at the moment, but her partner would also have to be Muslim - she isn't too concerned about relationships right now. She has mixed feelings around having an arranged marriage in the future and wouldn't to do it for the sake of it. Anita is worried about sexual experiences before marriage, as there are particular customs in Muslim culture around virginity that she would need to adhere to. She has some interesting thoughts on the ways that pleasure, marriage and religion intersect, and the expectations that are placed on Muslim wives. Sex education at her secondary school wasn't taken too seriously by Anita, as she could never imagine being old enough to need that sort of information. She would have liked to have been taught about the emotional aspects of relationships too. Anita isn't sure what she would like to do in the future, but doesn't want marriage or children until much later on.

本文件为安妮塔（Anita）访谈的原始转录文本。她出身穆斯林家庭，尽管父母思想相对开明且受西方文化熏陶，但对她的管教远比对其年长的姐姐更为严苛。
安妮塔目前被允许交往恋爱，但伴侣必须为穆斯林；不过她当下并未对婚恋关系抱有过多执念。
对于未来接受包办婚姻，她态度矛盾，不会为了成婚而勉强自己。
安妮塔对婚前性行为存有顾虑，因穆斯林文化中围绕贞洁存在特定习俗，她必须恪守相关规范。
她对于愉悦、婚姻与宗教三者的交织关系，以及社会对穆斯林妻子的角色期待，有着独到的见解。
安妮塔并未认真对待中学阶段的性教育，因为她当时完全无法想象自己到了需要这类知识的年纪。
她也曾希望学校能够同时讲授亲密关系中的情感维度。
安妮塔尚未明确未来的职业规划，但她希望在更晚些时候再步入婚姻、生育子女。
