Interviewer instructions
Again, we are looking for the age of the man she had intercourse with at the time of the sexual encounter. Record the age in the space provided. If she does not know, ask her to estimate the age of this person. If the respondent is unable to estimate the sexual partner's age, circle '98' and continue to the next questions.
