“…Such a discourse would release females from a position of receptivity, enable an analysis of the dialectics of victimization and pleasure, and would pose female adolescents as subjects of sexuality, initiators as well as negotiators. (Fine 1988, 33) Much of this ensuing research has sought to uncover the absence of this discourse globally in, for example, Ireland (Rolston, Schubotz, and Simpson 2004;Kiely 2005), Canada (Tolman 2002;E. Connell 2005), England (Measor, Tiffin, and Miller 2000;Forrest, Strange, and Oakley 2004;Alldred and David 2007), Australia (Harrison, Hillier, and Walsh 1996;Rasmussen, Rofes, and Talburt 2004;Beasley 2008) and New Zealand (Allen 2001(Allen , 2004Abel and Fitzgerald 2006).…”
