This research seeks to explore the constitution of women's contemporary contraceptive knowledges and their practices of contraceptive experimentation. It will review and interrogate the procedures and practices through which the contraceptive knowledges of young women in England are constituted. The increasing visibility of contraceptive technologies and the ways they are understood to constitute empowerment and embodiment have been well documented and critiqued. Existing research on sexual knowledge in the UK in the twentieth century has examined the effects of contraceptive knowledge on sexual attitudes, sexual relationships and sex practices including the practice of safer sex (Cook 2004, Porter and Hall 1995, Vitellone 2008). Information about contraceptive technologies has been described, on the one hand, as ambiguous, simultaneously individualising and universalising women's responsibility for contraception in ways that expand and limit choices (Oudshhoorn 1996), and, on the other, as entangled with a feminist protocol in which women are engaged in the collective coproduction of feminist methods of experimentation (Murphy 2012). What is less understood is the impact of scientific, popular media and lay contraceptive knowledge on women's contraceptive practices. This original empirical project will address this gap

本研究旨在探讨当代妇女避孕知识的构成及避孕尝试的行为。它将审查和询问英国年轻妇女避孕知识的构成程序和做法。避孕技术越来越引人注目，人们对这些技术的理解是赋予权能和体现，这一点已得到充分的记录和批评。世纪在英国进行的关于性知识的现有研究已经检查了避孕知识对性态度、性关系和性行为（包括安全性行为）的影响（Cook 2004，Porter和Hall 1995，Vitellone 2008）。关于避孕技术的信息一方面被描述为模糊的，同时以扩大和限制选择的方式个性化和普遍化妇女的避孕责任（Oudshhoorn 1996），另一方面，与女性主义协议纠缠在一起，女性参与集体合作生产女性主义实验方法（Murphy 2012）。人们不太了解的是科学、大众媒体和非专业避孕知识对妇女避孕做法的影响。这个原始的实证项目将解决这一差距
