Monique(19岁的非裔美国人)和Becky(21岁的白色人)接受了采访,这是NIDA资助的一项关于女性与可卡因的研究的一部分。虽然它们不一定是典型的,但它们确实说明了使用可卡因的妇女之间的一些差异。尽管她们年龄相近,都使用可卡因,但她们的情况和结果却大不相同,一个是白色中产阶级妇女,另一个是有色人种的下层妇女。本文提出的论点是,不仅仅是物质使用框定了过度使用可卡因的妇女的经历,而是由性别和种族介导的社会阶层。通过这些生活史,这些妇女的生活检查之前,可卡因的使用。然后描述和分析了可卡因的起始和持续的不同过程,然后讨论了他们使用可卡因后的生活。
Monique (an African-American 19-year-o1d) and Becky (a white 21-year-old) were interviewed as part of a NIDA-funded study of women and cocaine. Although they were not necessarily typical, they do illustrate some of the differences among women who use cocaine. Despite the fact that they were close in age and both used cocaine, their scenarios and outcomes were very different, as one was a white middle-class woman and the other was an underclass woman of Color. The argument presented in this article is that it is not simply substance use that frames the experiences of women who use cocaine too much, but the social class mediated by gender and race. Through these life histories, the lives of these women are examined prior to cocaine use. Then the differential processes of initiation into and continuation of cocaine are described and analyzed, followed by a discussion of their lives after cocaine use.
