“…When it comes to depictions of sex on teen TV, such social value rests on a complex history of both discourses about what viewing sex, specifically, could or would do for teen audiences as well as socially constructed norms around teen sexuality, with girlhood and/or queer sexualities finding themselves defined in particularly restrictive ways.

“…In short, teen audience's own understanding of "learning" from television is complex, but it is conceivable that if a teen audience member learns anything, it may be about their sexual health, safety, and pleasure. However, arguments in favor of sexual content on teen TV from adults are few and far between; when sex in youth media is discussed in popular discourse it is almost always in a negative light (Arthurs and Zacharias 2006) and still mediated for teens by the influence of parents, peers, and schooling (Buckingham and Bragg 2004).…”
